Hmmmm

Well I hate ceramics even more today. Opened the kiln and everyone of the hanging planters I made warped, the biggest pot cracked, and for some unknown reason, the kiln used way more units of electricity than it should have. (Which is maybe why things warped??)
On the plus side...delivered work to Mundaring and York and talked about running a pit firing workshop in York in August, which would be fun.
that's poor news - however, opportunity for your marketing skills to come to the fore - big your 'wonky' planters up!

hope the workshop happens - then you can teach other people about the sorrows of things going wrong even when you do everything right ;-)

:( Gosh so sorry to hear that! Maybe the extra units of electricity used might explain the cracks and warps?? Is it possible that anybody might have fiddled with any temperature settings?

Aw, no. Sorry. They looked so good and promising in the before photo, too.

@anniesue "wabisabi" - its all the rage! I just have to convince the woman who ordered them 🤔
It will be a challenge in the workshop to prepare people for the worst without destroying their hopes!!

@seacreature not sure what's happened Desi, I'm taking them into class for show and tell, hoping my teacher can give me some advice.
