The original design for this project was supposed to be pink purple and blue rings that wrapped around the cup it was intended to have a fun vibrant feel to it but while putting the final glaze on my cup it started to smear around and there is nothing that I could do. So when I came out of the glaze kiln it ended up being blue with smudges all around the cup. I was a little disappointed with the outcome but it ended up being a good Q-tip holder for my bathroom.
