My Own Hand Made Pottery Shards

A couple of weeks ago I went to the ceramics department at my college to try making my own pottery shards. I would eventually like to make my own ceramic components for jewellery, but different in style of course to  Thames pottery shards.

Here are some of the pieces:

I have no idea how I got these results - I was supposed to take notes about the oxides and glazes and stuff - but  I didn't! Big mistake!
My favourites are the top left and the one underneath it.

This week I was taught how to stain clay, so blue and white pottery shards will be coming soon....

  1. Tania, those are really neat my favorites are the three on the bottom row and top center. I like the textures of these pieces. Looking forward to seeing the blue and white ones.
