Blue Spagetti Cone


While on the subject of "spagetti", let me present a project composed entirely of spagetti clay. The garlic press was working overtime as I pressed the globs of clay into a drinking cup pretreated with Pam as a release agent. After a little drying time, I removed the spagetti and tapped the bottom into a cone shape. The cone was glazed with Kathy's Opal Blue. Perhaps this glaze was not the best as much of the detail of the spagetti was lost in the thick creamy glaze. Worth another try... perhaps with a white clay treated with iron oxide and glossy clear.
