Good thing I ate at home today…

Very disappointed in the fact that the bowl I made, left, and labeled on the bottom to be used in the community lunchroom until I leave the studio and take it with me has completely disappeared.

I’ve had a false sense of security, I suppose, because there are many handmade pieces like mugs up there that everyone has used and returned the whole year+ time I’ve been at the studio.

But maybe I should have known better, as two of my tools have even disappeared from my labeled tool bucket on my labeled shelf. Not to mention a friend’s work was intentionally vandalized once.

Just sad realities of working at a shared studio with too many members to actually know each other, I guess.

Still very grateful to be here… but also looking forward to the day I can do pottery on my own property.

Nice knowin’ ya, plum blossom bowl 🫑 at least I learned from the cool glaze experiments I did

Boo. That's no fun and it can really ruin a place.

I had some turds "borrowing" my tape measures. Since I put "for rectal user only" stickers on them, no one has borrowed either. πŸ˜‚

lol brilliant 🀣

I've been shopping too much on temu. Stuff is so cheap... Like the roll of 500 cute dumpster fire stickers I put on work orders for terrible jobs or drawings... One of these days I'm gonna get in trouble, but... I'm gonna have fun until then. πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ™ƒπŸ˜…πŸ˜‚

Just be stealthy

The stealthy sticker sticker

If the paperwork is for a job I'm assigned, it's pretty easy to figure out who sticks the stickers...

No one has borrowed… without also returning it. 😳

No.

I found them myself.

Before I put the stickers on.
