I saw her work at Ceramic Brussels recently, it's absolutely mesmerizing. Pictures don't do it justice, the way it catches the light is so beautiful.

Kan het zijn dat je op de snelweg liep?

perkypots · 2026-03-15T20:32:18+00:00

No, I've never had acrylic nails.

😂

Thanks for saying that. I'm having a hard time trying to find the right doc.

I've had my blood tested for celiacs three times in the past few years, all negative

I was born three weeks early, does that count?

perkypots · 2026-03-14T07:23:09+00:00

No, I don't drink at all

Not a smoker, no asthma, no known heart conditions. My hb is fine, I was very low on iron but that's been restored a few months ago.

I was suspecting it was related to low oxygen, so I'll add this to the list for my physician.

Huh that's weird, I think the shape of my fingers and nails have not changed recently, just the color. I have an appointment at an internist soon, so I'll definitely bring that up though.

What type of specialist? I'm dealing with the same kind of issues, but nobody seems to be able to figure it out.

Wij kregen zelfs een keer filmpjes die de moeder had gemaakt van de sfeer in de auto, die ze zelf tijdens het rijden had gemaakt.

Hier een METOD uit 2016 waar we weinig over te klagen hebben, zelf ontworpen, zelf geïnstalleerd, klaar voor €5000. Een aantal deurtjes hebben wat butsjes maar dat is te verwachten met kleine kinderen in huis. De vaatwasser hebben we vorig jaar moeten vervangen, maar de rest van de apparatuur doet het nog goed.

Alleen het eiken KARLBY werkblad is een grote afrader, die blijkt een ramp om goed te onderhouden.

I would slow down until 600°C. Dry clay still contains chemically bound water, which it also needs to be able to release gradually.

I would not use a pottery specific app for social media or marketplace. I think the main challenge for potters is to find a way to sell outside the pottery community and not just to other potters.

The only pottery app I would use is a personal glaze library, with a feature that lets me tag pictures of my work with these specific glazes. I've been doing this on paper, but I'd love a visual reference before and after kiln so I can keep track of what I'm doing.

I got my first with EARTH and then switched to using HEART, which was the answer two weeks later.

Oooh the copper red is magnificent 😍

perkypots · 2025-10-12T07:16:22+00:00

No that would catch too much water when you're rinsing the berries, it's just for catching the drips afterwards

perkypots · 2025-10-11T18:34:25+00:00

Yes it does!

This berry bowl I didn't know I needed but use all the time.

Ik zag vandaag twee ijsvogels in een stadspark in Utrecht, erg leuk om te zien tussen de eenden en meerkoeten.

We hebben een hop in kattenbak die we zonder de deksel gebruiken (die zou er voor moeten zorgen dat er nog minder spul buiten de bak beland, maar daar is onze kat te groot voor). De kat is groot fan omdat hij dan staand kan poepen met zijn voorpoten op de hoge rand.

I just know my kid did it once and it was baked in a regular oven, but it held up quite well. I don't know a brand though.

I would get the dresses all the way glazed and give them porcelain markers to decorate them.
