Peace, Love and Pottery Kids Camp

Summer Camp started this week, what a blast we are having so far.  The kids are between 6 and 12 yrs old - are all such characters!

I've been so impressed with how well then all have done on the potters wheel the past two days.  The youngest ones throw standing up since they just can't get close enough to their wad of clay while sitting.  Older kids sit with blocks of wood under their otherwise dangling feet.

Check out what the campers made on the wheel...
 Great stuff!

Today the kids trimmed and painted glaze on their ceramic pieces.  After snack we used glass to make sun catcher peace signs.  The glass is in the kiln now.... stay tuned to see the results!
