"Okay so I can't emphasize any more too about working on something, letting it sit over there and chill for a minute and then going back to it and working on other things. Multi tasking in ceramics is super important. Because you want to constantly be working on an array of things. And when you’re working on an array of things, you can let something else chill and then you go back to your other work and just keep flip flopping around like that. And you'll come out with a better product in the end. So now I've let this guy hang out. What you want to do is get rid of all those little things, that are on there, little pieces of clay, or inconsistencies or what not. And with this handle, you know I like to do little buckles, there, right there, right there and right there. So it looks like it's been riveted on there or something. And once again the glaze will fall in there and it will be a nice aesthetic. Make sure it's all centered alright. It's an olive oil container there, an olive oil bottle. It's a little off there, just kind of pat it on your table and it's done and I'm going to take my show you bottle, clean off the top there, clean all those fingerprints off this little guy. Yes. Okay? Now you have it. Show you bottle and an olive oil bottle."
