keep on trying new things

The last schedule worked great for the drop ring.

---

Other pieces needed a bit more (the plate experience has told me what I should have believed already -- fuse first, then slump) and will be re-fired along with some new pieces. The new pieces including yard sale glass, dichroic pendants and some round-ish fused things to later do the drop-ring with..

Here are the pictures:





and here is the next firing -- just got it underway and hopefully nothing got jiggled as I closed the kiln on my own (always a bit bumpy)
