VanTiki Mugs: Octopus Time Lapse - Other Crafts

Will be getting some glaze on these folks in the next few days. Some of these are spoken for, but a few will be on the web site soon! Sadly, I popped the Jabber Pod mugs in the kiln a tad prematurely, and one blew out due to steam in the clay. Doh! Patience is a virtue. Thank the Tiki Gods that he didn't take out a few other mugs when he blew. I'll file the knife edge off of the hole and use the mug for a glaze test. When he's on my shelf no one will know his "holey" secret! More news as it comes! Mahalo, VanTiki [ Edited by: VanTiki 2006-04-26 21:15 ]
