Happy Pottery Accident

Potters regularly talk about "happy accidents" - things that turn out better than planned.

I haven't tried making lids in pottery class yet. Wet clay shrinks about 10%, so making lids is tricky.












 

So it was a "happy accident" for me when three of my latest pottery creations - small bowls - fit neatly one on top of the other.

I couldn't have made them stack so perfectly if I'd tried! (This should make storing them a little easier!)
