Pit Firing Birthday Celebration
WSP members celebrated Sue Broadhead’s 70th birthday with a pit firing in her garden. Bisque pots were wrapped in copper wire, tea bags, seaweed, banana skins, leather and salt soaked pants!!
Pots were packed into the large pit amongst sawdust and straw, which was then lit……stand well back or else you will get your eye brows singed (mentioning no names!!)
Patience is needed as the pit will smoulder for a couple of days before the grand opening on Sunday.
All this excitement, followed by a lovely lunch in the garden.
Best wishes Sue, what a great way to spend your big birthday, hope you enjoyed yourself, I think everyone else did.
