Cobblers and Commemoration

I’m no Imelda Marcos, but I do like a pretty shoe. Recently I was wasting time on Pinterest and came across a book, “Shoes; The Complete Sourcebook” written by the delightfully named John Peacock. The book was advertised as the most comprehensive and detailed history of shoes ever published, including over 2000 specially drawn illustrations by Mr. Peacock.

Naturally I ordered the book and it has inspired one of our projects for the April course; little clay shoes. In addition, we’ll be making commemorative dishes with slipware, stamped stoneware mugs, (everybody loves those) and oxide rim tea lights.
