Icing Vase No. 2

While attending college I had a part-time job as a cake decorator. I applied some of these skills in my metalsmithing class during college and came up with some unique items. I also remember helping a friend of mine making some flowers with some decorating tools and clay in a ceramics class. It was so much fun, although I am not sure the professor liked that I helped her with her project. I had forgotten all about those moments until I started working as a part-time decorator again. I mixed some clay the consistency of frosting the best I could, then used it just as I would on a cake. Making a wonderful ruffle affect. After using the raku process, the results were fantastic! The colors are even more beautiful in person. Wonderful golds and iridescent colors. Use it as a bud vase or a pencil holder. Not meant for any kind of food.
