I'm building a wall!!

I am building a retaining wall, quite a job seeing it will be about 13 meters long on one side and 7 on the shorter side.
Using recycled materials there is a bit of sorting out to do, really a just do it as I go along, using posts from our old kiwi-fruit vines, corrugated iron (old and new) oh, I had to buy the wire mesh were I put rocks and stones in between, finding everywhere around the place.
 I have just put some plant behind it to see how it will look wen finished, still need sand fill.

got a little bit of time left to fill my kiln for the next firing!

 bowls with grey slip with sgraffito
 and some  plates
ready for the bisque firing.

That wall was a great idea for cleaning up in old stuff laying around...my husband has a lots of old, rusty stuff and things from old cars and all kind of motor-rusty-things spread all over...now I see in my head an interesting rusty wall, hehe...

So nice your wall becomes. Been thinking about getting network so I can do something similar with stones. We have a lot of rock here.
So delicious your pears are.
Wishing you a wonderful week.
