Tiki Hula, Dan said no cake because he's trimming.

===================================================
On the same day as Claim Jumpers we went antiquing. We found one case of tikis and

later Dan found a new, most likely made in china mug. It was heavy so he decided to purchase it.

I like old wooden items I can use with clay. These are the ones I bought this same day.

When we were in a Cancer Society store I found a wonderful CD rack for $40. I told Dan I had to have it. He said we had no room for it and I told him we did. We brought it home and I surprised him by putting it in the newest tiki room and by telling him it was for him to fill up.

He started by pulling tiki mugs out of the cupboards in the kitchen.

Oops he was so sad when he dropped one.

He started filling up the new unit.

He had such fun.

All done.

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

A Clay Day with Bullet aka Kingstiedye

Bullets Wish List request was a set of Frankoma Salt and Pepper shakers. You can find the story of these on Page 1 of this thread. Making these is a special gift from Joniece Frank a dear friend. Always a thank you to Traveling Jones for introducing us so many years ago.

Step one, pouring slip into the mold.

Step two, wait an hour and pour the slip out. Let it sit over night to completely drain upside down.

Bullet told me a description of a Bob he would like me to make. I had exactly what he wanted, color and carvings, in my personal collection. We made a trade so that Dan would be having a fun day too.

Step three, shave your head and face until completely nude. Return to open the molds.

Step four, gently remove them.

Step five, admire your work.

Step six, clean off the mold lines.

One done one to do.

Barrow a set of Frankoma salt and pepper shakers so that we could match up the holes on the tops.

Done.

Happy Camper.

To end a perfect day Dan and Bullet went looking for GROG. Inside joke if you've see past pages of this thread.

Thank you always for the visit, cheers, Wendy

PS rain in California we rejoice
