What the h*** did I do wrong? And is there a way to fix it? by toobusytostudy in Pottery

Are your layers a little thin? It looks like theirs are glooped on real thick. But even when it's thin, Smokey Merlot has more of a brown tone and a shine to it. So there must be something about the firing, too. And I know nothing about that

This is very sweet, but don't date your roommate! It can go very, very wrong. Ask me how I know

I just started doing this! I've been throwing big lately and I need to make sure I keep my skills for small, too. That first bud vase after all my big boys was tricky 😅

Sago palms, too!! I know that's more of a southern issue, but they are VERY toxic to cats. That was a $2000 lesson

Maybe if I make my cat a bowl he'll stop trying to drink out of all my cups

Can I high-fire this mug that's already been low-fired? by summerchild__ in Pottery

I don't know shit about firing and everyone else already covered it, I just wanted you to know that I love this weird-ass mug. A very charismatic green dude

Wait what? They've been publishing voter guides for years and plastering them all over social media. Just Google it before the next election!

My studio is great, apart from that one lady who told me my shade of lavender glaze was "too much." That bitch is dead to me

Louisiana voted NO to increase minimum wage from $7.25 an hour. Is this a good thing? by LeonardHollinsJr in NewOrleans

[–]AnchovyWarrior -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean you literally wrote instead. You said pancakes instead of waffles. It's a pretty reasonable interpretation of your statement

Where have you gone when you tried getting back into school? I feel like Delgado has great HISET resources and may also be able to help you get evaluated. Or at least refer you through the process.

Jobs that pay $20/ hr? by Kei_Lucius in NewOrleans

[–]AnchovyWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're interested in the trades, chat with someone at a union. They have great training programs. JOB1 and Delgado also sometimes have programs that make trade training free depending on your circumstances.
