clay: copper red + peppermint cream glazes on kurinuki box

I’m slowly glaze firing the kurinuki boxes I carved last spring. They’ve become lovely test pots for glaze combinations.                           
I thought I’d see a glimpse of pink in this box, but it’s more cream than peppermint.                       

Kinda wish I had layered blushing pink instead though I still like the final box. I let no clay in the bag go to waste. I'm sure I'll be carving more boxes from scraps (if not throwing them into itty bitty test pots for air plants) and reclaimed dark clays on which blue and green glazes are so striking.
