25.01.2022 Russ making the new Kiln plugs for my new kiln, so happy nearly ready to do our first proper high firing.

24.01.2022 Hand building with my Nephew and Niece.

22.01.2022 Ok Take Two. Our ruined pots now freshly glazed ready to go into the kiln tomorrow for their final firing, can't wait to see how they turn out. Portia the quality control cat is checking them over one last time.

22.01.2022 Kiln was nice and cold this morning so we opened it to our delight, Yay everything has bisque fired perfectly. Not a crack or break to be found. Thank you so much my wonderful husband Russell Kenworthy for all your help .

22.01.2022 With a quick paint job to the yellow walls, this will be my new pottery hideaway. Just need to buy Russell Kenworthy a nice new shed that he wants to put all of his toys in.

21.01.2022 It's so interesting to see the difference in firing glazed items in a gas kiln compared to firing in an electric kiln. Glazes come out textured and have more depth to them in a gas kiln compared to an electric kiln. Take a look at the differences in the blue and yellow below.

19.01.2022 Lauren Kenworthy making great use out of the first pots I turned month's ago.

19.01.2022 Today is the big day, loaded up the kiln and we are firing green ware for the first time, fingers crossed.

18.01.2022 Last pieces, cross your fingers everyone, C U all Monday

17.01.2022 Finally have a set of four coffee mugs and a milk jug. Luckily they are for us, as they are all different shapes and sizes .

12.01.2022 Having a great time with Mackenzie and Connor on the wheel today.

12.01.2022 Here are a few items we made a few weeks ago. Finally posting now as we have had no power or reception. Also a big shout out to everyone in Kalgoorlie, Boulder and Coolgardie, we hope you get your power back on and the streets clear of all the fallen trees from the storm on Saturday.

10.01.2022 Finally I have two pieces of pottery home. I double dipped one bowl in blue and white glaze, in doing this you get a third colour in a triangle shape on the sides.

09.01.2022 Have our niece and nephew for a few nights so I put them to work

09.01.2022 Kiln full to the brim and on it goes. Cross your fingers Carol Pocock the plates don't crack.

09.01.2022 Loving the glaze on my candle holders.

08.01.2022 I am finally throwing larger bowls. Can't wait to have them fired so Lauren and I can glaze them. We are still waiting for our first pieces we glazed to be ready, hopefully we can post them soon.

07.01.2022 Started on my dip and chip plates, as soon as they are dry it's into the kiln with the rest of my pottery for our next bisque firing yay.

07.01.2022 Perfect pot for this beautiful little orchid I purchased from Bunnings Warehouse Midlandl. I'll have to make more.

06.01.2022 Had a great day at pottery this morning, threw two dip platters and my sugar bowl has been bisque fired. Can't wait to glaze it now.

06.01.2022 I could see Jack our dog doing this.

06.01.2022 Steve our quality control cat doing his final checks before these pieces have their final firing. The colours will be completely different once fired. Can't wait to see the end results.

03.01.2022 Thanks Ceramicraft - Pottery, Ceramics and Dye Sublimation for all our pottery item's we ordered on Tuesday. Great, friendly and very prompt service.

03.01.2022 For all those Sparkling/Wine even large Beer Bottle drinkers out there, I'm making more wine coolers. More designs to share very soon. You put them in the fridge for 30 mins and they will keep your Sparkling/Wine or Beer cool for an hour.

01.01.2022 Sample colour for Chip/Dip plates. I have different blues, blue/green, off white, black, charcoal, peach to name a few. Below is a combination of Mother of Pearl and Mottled Off White.

01.01.2022 I did it, I finally made a handle today and successfully attached it to the milk jug I made yesterday at pottery, Yay.

01.01.2022 Russell to the rescue again, now he's fixing my pottery wheel, its old but its fixable, when you have Mr Kenworthy as your Hubby. Fanks Russell Kenworthy
