Meet Bowen’s newest roadside stand, open nowπŸ’• 

Built by @tristanpaulcasey using yellow cedar and wavy glass.
Yellow cedar (roasted) and stoneware. I treated myself to an air compressor and glaze sprayer and am super happy with the smooth finish on the letters. #babysfirstaircompressor 

Roadside stand open August 24th πŸ’•
I made four of these. One cracked when I stamped the bottom and one developed glaze defects in the firing, so now there are two. 
Shino glaze with manganese and iron wedged into the clay for the specklesπŸ–€
Super excited to invite you to the opening of our new roadside pottery stand! To celebrate we are have a garden ceramics sale Sunday, August 24th from 3-5pm. Would love to see you there!πŸ’• 
Please dm for locationπŸ“
Yard flowers in a soda fired vase. 
The darker lines on the rim are where the soda glaze hit and carbon trapping occurred in the glaze. A little bit of magic you hope for but can never guarantee. 

Available late summer, more details to comeπŸ’›
Freshly bisqued and ready for the soda kiln next week 🀞🏼πŸ”₯
3 mugs. Thrown, inlaid, and glazed with shino and soda ash. ✨

An extra juicy mug fired in the wood ash of some Alders we had to remove due to rot and lean. The tree ash contains all the minerals needed to melt and fuse with clay in a high-fire ^10 firing, but every firing is different based on the type of wood,
