Another very late Xmas gift....
 |
After the first firing, both nightlights were flat. I kept the abstract one flat,
but wanted to try making the owl light curved. |

As always, more lessons learned:
- First attempt at curving the panel was on a metal dish of unknown origin.... stainless steel is OK, but this one was not guaranteed steel.... and i ended up freaking myself out thinking of all the awful chemicals i might be unleashing on my house and stopped that firing. Next time, no messing around like that.
- If using a ceramic (unglazed) bowl.... ventilation is key. (I broke that bowl in half -- but it worked anyway!!)
- This nightlight, so far, seems to be of a more decent weight for the glue I used. I've not heard of this one falling apart just yet....
