Bus Man's Holiday

A rainy day at the Gladstone Pottery Museum
We have just returned from a "working holiday" in Stoke-on-trent.  We managed to buy enough slip to last us for quite a few months & we learnt a bit more about how to make our own slipusing our new Blunger.We tryed to source a few new moulds but it is a waste of time we have to end up making them ourselves.
We enjoyed our visit!
 My daughters had a go at the potters wheel, but I could not get my husband Adrian to have a go. They both managed to make a small vase (with a little help!) we are going to try & fire them in the kiln so if you see some wonky vases on the stall you know who made them.

In training to join the family business!
