Recently started a commission

This week, I have started a commission for a wedding. The bride and groom to be have asked for a order of just over 200 pieces. It's a great opratunity that I'm both excited for, and honored to have of been asked to do. I'll be updating this post as they come along. So far I've started throwing the pieces, and hope to have half of them done by tomorrow. I'll then trim them over the weekend, and start the second half on Monday.

One of the prototypes that we agreed on. There will be a variety of glaze colors, but the shape will be the same.

One of the racks I've filled up. I try to do a few of these a day to keep it spread out.
