This butterfly postcard was the colour and shading This butterfly postcard was the colour and shading I’d been aiming for with the glaze on this jug I made at wonderful @thefarnhampottery 
I’m glossing over the somewhat ‘solid’ base of this - over an inch!! My previous attempts had all ended up in the bucket because I’d been far too cavalier trying to bring up clay from the bottom. So this one was overly cautious. But at least it didn’t topple like the others.
Learning to throw at the wheel was so challenging and physically demanding but also such a mental reset. Thanks to our teacher Serenity who more than lived up to her name - particularly when dealing with my many cries for help 🤣 
Now I want to learn more…. Why did the wax resist on the jug on image 2 go so brown? Why do I always end up making cylinders or jugs even when I set out to make a wide dish? And why didn’t I use some more colourful glazes? I want to try it all again.
That’s the thing about pottery - it draws you in and makes you want to do more.

Hand-crafted wool wraps by Jules Hogan

Hand-crafted wool wraps by Jules Hogan

Jules Hogan hand crafts the most beautiful collection of wool wraps and scarves in her Berkshire garden studio. Inspired by the colours of the landscape, Jules’ designs include a soft blush pink, warm beige, cool petrol blue and a signature stripe or two. All hand-crafted to order using the softest yarns and often gently felted and hand-pressed to create a slightly felted luxurious feel. I’ve picked out my own favourites to buy right now. It’s worth bearing in mind, however, that Jules only makes here pieces in limited numbers, so these particular ones are likely to sell out fast. Best thing to do if you’d like to be included when Jules has her next shop opening, is sign up for her newsletter at the bottom of the page here https://www.juleshogan.com. That way you’ll get all the info you need to snap up one of her pieces. Good luck! x
