Hands on experiences are always the best, and I had a chance twice to visit the Maho Bay Clay Works in St John, USVI and make my own pottery.
This was my first little bowl I made, and it actually turned out pretty well! It use to be a nice purple color, but an Irish flag once got caught in some water in the bowl and the color changed slightly.
I have another pot at this same trip in 2010, but it came out very weirdly so haven’t taken a photo of it.
My second trip I was more experienced and made some unique souvenirs.
I made a clay heart bowl. This one is pretty deep!
And then this is more of a plate, where I added starfish to it to commemorate seeing starfish at Waterlemon Caye
