#5 and #6 a Eureka

Today when I was putting these dishes together I realized what I didn't like about the previous ones...  The rims.  i don't usually leave my rims that plain, or unfinished, so for #5 and #6 I did a rim like I normally would.

 And I don't love the way they turned out, but it is a step closer.

 They feel so much more finished.  The rim now helps to define the space, by giving it a sort of border.  EUREKA.

 Then I forgot to cover them and they died....DUMB

 I also made another cookie jar form.

 It is a lot smaller, and I don't like the negative space under the rim of the lid.  I either need to angle the lid or flatten the rim on the pot.

 But the decoration is really nice and feels very 3 dimensional.
