While making the slab box I used many of the studio habits but I feel as tho I focused on engage and persist, and observe the most. When I first started to create my slab box, I had planned on making a big and tall slab box, so it wouldn't look the exact same as everyone else's box's. I soon found out it was difficult to make a tall slab box and be sturdy at the same time. If you can see in the pictures you can probably tell that some of my walls are bowed and flimsy looking. During the process of putting up my walls I forgot to insert coils along the creases of the walls where they came together, so this made them a lot weaker than they should have been. At first when I was making my texture roller I was so excited to finally be able to see my print on my slab box. After trying to fix all of my mistakes in the walls almost all of my pattern was none existent. I ended up carving out almost all of my pattern, which I actually like it better than my original plan. One thing that I wish I would have changed or did better would be my lack of time I put into glazing my box. This resulted in uneven, and a patchy glaze job. Overall I think that my slab box didn't turn out how I wanted it to but I still like it. You live and you learn!
