The meandering thoughts of a modern-day hearth witch.

Hearth and Home // Pottery

On my Saturday mornings, I have begun a short course in pottery at the quirky Bristol Potstop, where master of clay, Neil, is teaching us to open our minds as we create with our hands. 
So far, I would describe my attempts as 'rustic'...


...and tentative...


...but I am learning...



...that 'perfect' and 'perfectionism'...


...are two totally different things.

Aww wow, Avie! I just love these pottery creations already... the leaves, both imprinted and sculpted, are truly gorgeous. Perfect and imperfection are over-rated in my mind - give me this raw beauty anyday!! Well done!

I would describe your attempts as gorgeously rustic, I love the sculpted leaves piece :-)
