So I decided to fix that. No pics of the first few steps but I rolled out a slab of clay and wrapped it around my cocktail shaker (right size and shape), cut out the holes, textured it with a lava rock, let it dry a bit to firm up, and removed it from the shaker. Into the kiln Out of the kiln and ready to glaze Ready to fire again
