Ceramics: Art Supplies Vessels

At the second firing of my frost vessels, three of them cracked . Oh well. These three that survived will hold my colored pencils, pencils, pens, Sharpies, and Micron pens.

I was going to adhere an iron oxide decal on each these vases, but I rather like them as is. They need no embellishment. I'll be sad to part with the containers that were my dad's bowling and U.S. Coast Guard retirement mug which are holding my supplies now, but I will thank them for reminding me of my dad because I think I can now remember him without those objects. Because I've got no more frost porcelain, I'm gonna roll out slabs of Bmix for this Saturday. Mark. Paint. Cut. Again.
