Clay Imprinting Stamps   

Today's project was to design something useful, like a tool. It didn't necessarily have to be practical, but I needed some stamps to use on pottery, so made these. When they are fired they can be used to press into damp clay to make designs - one of them is a logo for identification. I am currently taking a wheel-thrown pottery class at Access Arts. So far I have thrown a lovely birdhouse, two flower pots and two cups. I am now working on more refined pieces. If they survive the firing and glazing without incident I will post pictures in a month or so.
