Gearing up for Autumn in the Kiln Studio

Cold weather means the  perfect time to fire up the kiln. So that means I have to clean a summer’s worth of dust and dirt from the kiln studio . . . which isn’t a bad thing.

It can be really refreshing and inspiring to look through the glass racks and dust off the molds. It helps that sun is pouring through the windows and our Southwest desert is sparkling from a recent rain.

The dogs are basking in the sun on the concrete right outside the door, and I’m happy to be organizing something other than paperwork. I’ve primed the shelves and leaned them against the wall so they’re ready for service.

I found 2 bottle molds that will make great serving dishes out of the summer wine bottles.

The colors and bold light of Autumn are making this winter’s possibilities, and surprises from the kiln . . . Exciting!!
