World Travellers
by Eleanor Hendriks
Two of my stopperless salt shakers have found new homes across North America: one in Maryland and one in California! Etsy is making the world smaller. Goodbye, salt shaker friends -happy trails!

Unloading the last kiln of 2007
by Eleanor Hendriks,
...especially when there are little faces like this peeking out at me....
Many potters say that unloading a kiln is like Christmas. I sure think it is...
...especially when there are little faces like this peeking out at me....
...and here are some of the results for the first class at StudioÉLAN, Fenelon Falls.
Congratulations to Sandy, Rochelle, Ross and Marjorie on some great results. I loved having you as my students this fall. Don't be surprised if you see something insired by your work in my next kiln load!

The first Classes at the new StudioÉLAN...
by Eleanor Hendriks
...are coming to an end. I've had eight fun sessions with 6 beginning students who started coming to the studio once a week back in October. Now their work is glazed and waiting to go into the kiln tomorrow with the last of my production for the year.
Some of their finished pieces from the first kiln firing this session. I always try to fire the kiln twice in a session. This gives the students a chance to see the huge change glazing can make to their pieces. I also encourage them to keep a few of their very first pieces, even if they aren't in love with them, to use as glaze test pieces.
And as for my work, I'm planning on firing a few more of my Dip Dishes like the ones I have been listing on etsy in more great colour combinations. In the background are a few casseroles that aren't going to make it into this kiln. I just can't decide how to glaze them and I have put too much work into them so far to experiment on them now!
I am advertising new sessions of classes starting in January and again in April. I hope lots of people sign up...it can be very quiet in the studio without any students.
And what is germinating under here?!?! Stick around -they should sprout in January!
