To be honest I wasn't sure I'd like any of them but by the time they were complete with glaze I had a problem choosing as they Al turned out beautifully. The blue and white was pretty, the one where you extended the leaves under the red band in liked too. The bride at the top of the last looked different once completed so from starting each piece I went from I'm not sure to wow, Ann's done it again. Thankyou for sharing the process x
Hey Denise. Im so glad I changed your mind. Thanks as always for watching and I appreciate hearing what you think.
No 2! Without a doubt! But throwing a taller rim seems efficient!
Nice ideas again thankyou wanna, I loved the braided version. Even watching and listening, I found it the most complicated to do, in my head, however looking at the finished piece, found it to be the prettiest. Thankyou for sharing your ideas and you talent of making things look so easy to do x😊
Very beautiful job Ann. Very playful. I love watchin your imagination at work. Great job.🥰
Hi Kim. that is so nice of you. thanks so much for the kind words and for watching. 🙂
Oh, my absolute favorite was the last one...the braided rim! that is absolutely AWESOME thank you!!!
Hi Marie. Thank you so much. I learned that throwing the arms so they are a bit thicker and then cutting strips that are on the thinner side make the tighter braid. Give it a go!
The "grass"is my favorite!
Thanks Chloe. I folded the strips over the rim and attached them. I carved the band and the bottom part of the grasses into the clay then drew and painted the chickadees. I couldnt resist as those strips looked so much like grasses to me, haha.
I love all of them 🥰 You’re not just a potter Anne , but a very gifted artist ! 💖
Love the second braided rim!
Hi Mel. Thanks so much!! It was so easy too . Just cut and fold. Give it a go
The chickadee ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hello Ann, these pot are beautiful. Thanks for the tutorial 💕
Love all the creative designs esp the last 2. The rims are wonderful but so are your designs and drawings underneath to make the entire composition.
Hi Mai. That is such a nice thing to say. The great thing about these pieces are that once you create the rim, then you can be as creative with the rest of the piece. I was trying to come up with different designs and techniques for you to hopefully spark your imagination on things you can do with your own pottery.
Incredibly creative!! I am always wondering about what to do with my rims. All five were awesome, but I think I like the last rim (the thicker braided rim) the best.
Hi Janita! Thanks so much. It is really an exercise to get people to think outside the box a little. I tried quite a few variations and came upon making that braid. It was fun and I learned a lot too 🙂. Give it a go!
Your videos are like an encouraging hug to start my Saturdays (when I mostly WANT to lay in bed with the covers up over my head). An injection of awe and inspiration gives me a better chance of making it into my studio. I loved all of these rims. I really like the soft appearance of the 'bowtie'.
Question if you're inclined to share: how much added time did these take, and how do you modify pricing based on the added effort (if you do)?
Hugs to you Em!! You know Jim and I appreciate you watching. As far as pricing goes, it is all relative, right. As a potter, you know we never get paid according to the time we put into each piece we make. Therefore, you just need to decide what you are comfortable in charging...taking into account your sales venue, your customers and what you feel they are worth. One tip, always start with a higher price. You can always discount the price later and have a sale if it doesnt sell but it is more difficult to raise prices.
You’re so so clever😮
Aww...that is so kind of you. thanks so much for watching.
Awesome as always, and so creative, Ann! I think #2 is gorgeous! I also really like #1 and #2 😊
You are very sweet Candy. I really appreciate you watching and all of your support. Thank you.
I said "Candy is very sweet...huh huh"
@@LittleStreetPottery Hahahaha!
You amaze me. I had so many ideas while watching this! Thanks as always!!!
I'm so glad!
I have tried and tried to find the Trimming Spinner from the uk I could only find one similar but very bendy not the quality of the one you use Ann. Love all the things you and Jim show us and the different ways to use clay and clay tools thanks so much xx
Hey Gingy. Jim and I always appreciate you watching. Thank you. Im sorry you arent finding a trimming spinner like the one I use. Actually in one of my videos where I used cheap tools to do the decorating, I show you how to make your own simple version of the tool
Muy original

Thanks so much!! We appreciate you watching.
Beautiful work! These are so creative! I have a question though: why didn't you need to score and slip these to get them to attach? Still trying to figure out when I need to score and slip, or when I don't need to. Thanks!
Well. sometimes we skip through that in production but really you should score and slip 93% of the time. If you have surfaces that are still pretty wet and not weight bearing then you can get away with skipping it. However, I know lots of potters who dont even slip and score handles for instance and have no problem with them staying attached...
you are so patient. This is all just too fiddly for me. But they look nice.
Hey Tari. They d take a little bit of time, but I didnt feel that it was as fiddly as you might think. Give them a go and let me know what you think. 🙂
