New projects and makes for Valentines

Last year I was too late to submit new ideas to the Not on the high street valentines gift guides and categories, Christmas takes a lot of my time and thought and I found it a slow start for me to really get going with new ideas last year.
This year is different though, determined not to miss out on the Februarys flurry of Noths sales I have been beavering away in the evenings making a few Valentines Day related items.
I have brought some clay inside and have been working away in warmth and comfort a few evenings a week with some new ideas.

White Ceramic "You & Me.." bowls with attached ceramic buttons. I have
also attached a little matching handmade button on the box lid. These have
gone down very well so far, the red hearts have all sold so I am currently
making more.

This little porcelain ring bowl is made from porcelain clay and also comes
in a little box with a handmade button tied to the top. They have been imprinted with  lace.

A pair of little porcelain ear studs with punctuation symbols imprinted
into them.

Another little owl brooch made from porcelain, this time with a sage green glaze wash.

Current Projects.... Building up ''

January isn't usually a month I tend to work with clay. After busy Decembers it tends to be quiet and time to re-charge and start thinking about new projects and what I would like to achieve in the current year. This year though and since joining Not on the High Street I haven't had that luxury and I have needed to keep making to keep my work replenishing after sales so the shop doesn't look sparse. Although January is a quiet month , a trickle of sales keep coming so I have been making ready to do the next firing.
Here is some of what I have been doing.

Clay plant markers with a new top design.

Soap dishes the reverse side has four little feet and a veined imprint on the lower side.

These little bowls are made for Valentines gifts and should be ready soon.
They are made from porcelain clay hence the heap of broken ones that didn't make
the refining stage. 

Some more terracotta bird feeders.
