From Little Things...
Last week I sat down and decided to make some small bonsai pots to house some small trees I plan to buy in the future. I wanted to make these pots pretty tiny to put two cascading trees in them.
The first one I made I chose not to glaze. I wanted it to look natural.
 |
| I experimented by mixing clay and an already fired piece. I smashed up the fired piece and kneading it into my clay. |
 |
| The base with one drainage hole. |
 |
| An Australian two dollar coin to give some perspective. |
 |
| A tiny pot made from Japanese white clay. |
 |
| A small tree with tiny flowers would look good in this pot. Any suggestions? |
 |
| I tried a jade colored glaze - didn't quite work out the way I wanted but it still does the job. |
 |
| I also made a small dish with three legs. |
 |
| Black satin glaze. I can see some jelly beans covering this dish very soon. |
 |
Because I put this dish on a marble coffee table I stuck some clear protective rubber circles on each of the feet.
