2 Dumb things I did this week

Working tired is never smart, but sometimes I don't have a choice.

Earlier this week I mis-glazed several items, these lovely tumblers and a covered jar..All of them look great on the outside, but on the inside..the glaze was on far too thick. They are bubbled and cratered and not safe for use.. some of the glaze is about 1/4 inch thick on the inside. The other thing was to mis-glaze this special order covered jar. I had two jars, one was special order, the other wasn't. I switched the glaze patterns on the lids. They both look alright, but they are not what was ordered.

*sigh* Nothing I can do about it now. Those tumblers represent a couple hours of work and a couple hundred dollars. I can spare neither the time nor money :( so I am a little upset, but moving on.
