new list above my wheel

SLOW DOWN.


PEOPLE CAN WAIT FOR EXCELLENT POTS


2 great pots are better than 6 mediocre ones.


Lighter.

It's okay to say no. Sometimes it's even fun.

I have felt so rushed since November. I was getting sloppy and heavy handed. Jake brought home some tacks for me (and chocolate- good man) so I could post this list above my wheel.

good idea! and i totally agree with point #3 (2 great pots are better than 6 mediocre ones.). none of that 12 before 12 for me ;)

but... what do you mean with "lighter"?

My last round of pots were a bit heavy/ chunkier than I like them. :) Used the same amount of clay as usual but needed an extra pull or two.. so they ended up short and stocky.

Ok...I want someone to make me that sign for MY studio...along with a number of other ones. Good thought!
