Jul. 20th, 2011 09:11 pmI tried Medieval Seran wrap for the first time. What fun. I have been experimenting with maiolica on tiny apothecary jars which are going to be largess. They are about 2 tbsp. capacity. However, I am filling them with whole spices or sesame salt rather than the Medieval spice mixes like the talented
ayeshadream does.

I first decided the firing was a disappointment, then I decided it was a success. Now I think it was primarily promising, I tried a lot of different color combinations and I am going to know a little more of what to do next time. Many pieces in this firing went to the show I'm in at a local winery.

My most recent firing. The red is a commercial glaze but the rest of the glazes are my own. If you look carefully you can see the carving under the glaze.

and the nesting set.

Winery show, so there has to be goblets.
LJ isn't letting me upload any more photos, oh well.

Their store is self-serve, and you just put the money in the box (you need to bring cash). I think jars of honey run like $10 for small and I believe quarts are $25, but I could be wrong (I don't actually buy much honey). They also have bee pollen.
