Eggs, Eggs, and More Eggs!

I ran out of my stoneware clay. I thought there was one more bag left, but it turned out to be my sculpture/raku clay instead. So with the little bit of smooth stoneware, I decided to delve into egg-making.

These are actually for the medieval faire. They aren't fired, yet, and I will be smoke-firing them for a blotchy/black/grey sort of look. Perfect for "Dragon Eggs"! As a bonus, they're actually shakers - or maracas.

If I find that enough people like the finished idea, I might try selling some on Etsy, as well. But for now I'm building up stock for the faire so I don't look at amateur-ish as I did last year!
