Expired & Tossed Items - 10-13-24 (In Progress)

Hello DMS Potters,

Please remember to get your pottery items before they expire. We hate throwing away items you have spent your time crafting. THIS POST IS NOTIFICATION THAT THE ITEMS LISTED HAVE BEEN DISCARDED.

Remember to label your pieces with your name and the date you placed it on the shelves. Each ware board should have a label. Sometimes items are moved away from each other and if it becomes separated from your group, it just looks like an unlabeled project.

When you place items on the shelves, try to set a reminder or appointment in your phone of when you should come back to DMS to check your project.

REMINDER
We allow 30 days for your clay item to be on the In-Progress Shelves.

         **TIME LIMITS IN CERAMICS DEPARTMENT**

ITEMS ON BATS is 7 DAYS
Please return within 7 days to move your item from the bat to a board.
If a project is on DMS bats after 7 days, we will attempt to wire off your project and place on a ware board.
