I hope to see that happen some day with the heads I'm about to make. Mine are priced at $125 each and I'm taking orders now. Thank you hang10tiki. I have a green glass bowl I won at the California State Fair throwing dimes when I was 8. I've loved that bowl ever since, my sister has a turquoise Fiesta ware bowl she won the same way 12 years before and its special for her. I hope I make a good Christmas memory for them with these. I've covered their last names which are also on them. Progress Report: we have really slowed down being ill and getting ready for Christmas but I've done a few things. We opened the kiln and found that the Nathan Jr. and Samantha bowls were just fine. Now I need some goodies to fill them with. See how far away from each other the bowl and mug are? Well that mug spit on the bowl making a blue spot on top. Warning, any chunky glazes have the possibility of doing that. On the bottom shelf was the Temple of the Jaguar bowl, 2nd glazing to cover some tiny glaze skips between different glazes. Another glitch. But this shows my Sea Creature mug glaze really well. On close inspection of the jaguar bowl I found than new glaze skips developed between glazes. So it was back to work on it adding more glaze again. I had two more pieces from the dry series that had been bisque so I glazed them so that the kiln wasn't so empty. I've always wanted to see if glaze could "glue" a piece to another piece so I added a puffer fish. This is the third time I've glazed the jaguar bowl. I hope that this time it has worked. It is cooling in the kiln right now. Next step for the Sea Creature Swap. I used Super Sculpey to make 3 deep sea fishing poles. I baked them in the home oven. Then I painted each one. The mug is the ocean. What can be caught when fishing from its depths? It is just so much fun to be on Tiki Central and to spend time with each of you, Wendy [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2012-12-20 08:49 ]
