I've been toiling with this idea for quite a while now...I wasn't entirely sure how I wanted to go about doing it. I'm still not sure this was the BEST way to do it, but I'm on the right track. I know at this point you're going, "Ok it's a white vase???" Maybe if I turn out the lights?
(a number 5 on my Atlas) The clay was then smoothed over the frame trying to eliminate as many bubbles as possible. I got most of them. I then baked it for 20 minutes (since it was so thin!) let it cool and sanded it a bit. I think it will get more sanding as well as some black trim along the top and bottom. I am trying to decide between black clay or a ribbon or fabric trim of some kind...black leather or suede 'ribbon' seems really appealing right now. Each side has a different image which can be seen here.
So what do you think?
Wow Deb i love it

Thanks Rachel...I definitely want to try making a few more. I like the masculine touch to them, I don't have much in the way of Masculine items in my inventory. I'm thinking of doing one with maybe deer/hunting or fishing motifs too!
