Snow? Who cares..!
Who cares about snow, I can still make plant pots! I've made two so far, one is a rather generic looking pot, and the other is a shallow one with a ripply lip. I've been sketching up some ideas for other shallow, almost boxlike, plant pots. One concept is similar to a sushi platter where a flat rectangle is draped over a box form to make a cavity. I'll get some images up here soon, since it's hard to describe these things with words.

I think it's a great idea to do some hand-building as well as wheel throwing. You'll learn some things about what clay can do that you might not know through just working on the wheel.
Keep some of those cylinders leather hard so you can play with them as sculpture. They aren't of much interest on their own. But they could become something quite interesting with a little work!
