WaikikianMoeKele maybe we can break the curse with this one. Your well wishes did bring us home safely, thank you.

TikiAno it is so good to be home. We'll have a special Thanksgivakah tomorrow. We have Jewish friends who told us that Hanukah for the first time since 1888 starts on Thanksgiving. We are going to their home for a pot luck meal and good cheer.

Romo's sculptors clay allows for fine detail but then you have to mold it to continue. I'll be doing more of that for the Wish List projects that were ordered.

You wish is granted, more in progress photos of the Cursed Bowl.

===============================================================================

The Cursed Bowl continues to behave. The large patch has held its place.

I used this tool to round each piece of bamboo.

I smoothed the bamboo with my big paint brush.

I added the section dividers to the bamboo.

I used this tool to do more rounding. Also to make an indentation at the base of each divider.

The multi-wire tool makes nice lines that will fill with glaze to give the bamboo texture.

The outside is all done.

I decided to just do the same on the inside. Flat surfaces are never flat enough with glaze, so why not just mess it up.

All done.

Different angle.

I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. I am very grateful for all your comments and views this year. Thank you all for your support. I love making tiki ceramics while you watch. Many cheers for the holidays from Wendy and Dan

PS I'll be back tomorrow, our meal isn't until 4 PM
