I have a bucket of dog hair from my shepard-chow mix. He sheds a lot in the spring. I will use it in the saggar.

Use your computer to print out what you want written on your pot. Cut the word(s) out, dampen the paper and gently stick it to your leather hard clay. Use a stylus to trace the lettering to make an impression in the clay. You can use oxide or underglaze to fill or accent the impressed wording.

Thank you for your nice words.

What type of DIY kiln controller did you get? I see them on ebay all of the time, but am afraid to purchase.

My son came to visit and decided that he needed to sculpt for me a new kiln god, hence the birth of "Bardo - the screaming god of the royally _____." I also have a 'swig' with Bardo prior to lighting the kiln, in hopes that he will not get up to any mischief!

Gosh, that's exactly what the paint chip sample called it! Isn't it hideous?
My grandchildren are allowed to write and draw all over my studio walls so hopefully someday, as they grow taller, it will all be covered.

At my house, we call that color, "Pepto Pink."
