My first Gingerbread House!



I have always wanted to decorate a gingerbread house, so this was the year!  This was not "a thing" when I was a kid, but boy, is it popular now!  I got a pre-assembled house, but unfortunately one side was all broken... so here is the good side!  It was really fun, and will now be a holiday tradition!

4th Grade Coil Pots at Tesago


4th graders have worked very hard to get these coil pots finished for the big holiday - what a wonderful gift for a family member or friend!  We started by looking at the possibilities of creating with coils, and then did some sketching to plan out ideas. After building, and firing once, we spent 2 classes glazing, and then the pots were fired again.  It is a lengthy process, but as I always say, good art takes time!
