The Mashiko Pottery is complete



Saturday, Kindra and I returned to Mashiko to pick up the pottery we made a while back. Here are the results of all of my work. While it shrank about 50% I was happy with how it all turned out.

Making Pottery at Mashiko 益子町












Saturday morning Kindra, Shinobu, and I went to Mashiko and made our own pottery.
We made Bowls, Mugs, Vase's, and of course the always popular Ashtray.
It was a bit messy, and lots and lots of fun. When we were finished we had lunch a really nice Japanese organic restuaraunt. The pottery making class is a very popular, so the kilns had a bit of a backlog requiring us to return to the museum next month and pick our finished goods. Perhaps if they look nice we will post some pics along with tour pics of the museum.
