Do you keep a bucket list? Are there things you absolutely want to do? On Monday I tried something I wanted to do for a while - POTTERY!!! My sister and I attended an introductory pottery course at CREATIVE BOOST. Workshop description talked about pottery and ceramics and although I was much more interested in the first one I thought that learning about ceramics could be fun. When we got to the place we were happy to find out that there were only 5 people in our group and we could all concentrate on trying out pottery wheels (since there are only 5 of them in the studio).
So for a little bit over two hours we were centering, opening, and throwing over and over again.

I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the meditative nature of pottery. I am even thinking of taking a 10-class session in January....
Tuesday was nice and quite: work during the day and ikebana in the evening. I am practicing nageire style (vertical arrangements). It's a somewhat challenging process for me - I have been working with kenzans for way too long. Practice, practice, practice ....
I didn't take any pictures that day, apart from usual ikebana shots: here is my riginal arrangement (juniper branches and roses)
"Updated" version with rose fruits.
