A while ago, Laura and Amelie Kemshall did a "pottery painting" day together as an activity. While I was in Wales with my family, my DIL planned a trip to the Corris Craft Center. You could paint pottery, make hand dipped candles, make custom chocolate bars and more. All I cared about was the pottery. I had been inspired. So here I am sitting in a tiny kids chair surrounded by kids (did I care - NO!) painting away on my tiny plate. Well one plate lead to a cup/bowl and then another plate. Had I stayed, I would have an entire set of dishes.
Here they are with the glaze paints
Plates the same, cup reversed to see other side
On my porch when I arrived home
Though not as beautiful and artistic as Laura's, I still love them.

If you visit Corris, make sure you go to Quarry Pottery and get inspired.
I love 'em! What a nice memento of your trip! I have seen shops here that allow you to paint mugs & other things... never thought to give it a try, but now it looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteIt was SUCH fun!!!
DeleteBeautiful,Beth! Maybe a new line for you?
ReplyDeleteI doubt it. It's not cheap!!
DeleteWhat fun, Beth!! Love these! Of course they're not like Laura's...these, clearly, are YOURS!! Impossible to quiet your voice. (And why would you want to?) ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm chuckling!!
