First, the good news:

The small fish bowls and fish cups turned out really well!

Good job, me!

The bottoms are nice too.
And now, the bad news:

The dotted dessert plates aren't so good: the white glaze let me down. The plates fired to temperature and the glaze matured, but it looks more like white paint than the "Snowflake" I know and love.

I'm going to try firing them again. The big question is: should I add a shiny glaze on top of the white to help it flux, or should I just re-fire the plates as they are? I will have to consult the kiln oracle.
Good job, you! I'm sure all will turn out fine.
