Tavarua Tiki it still amazes me that people do not know what a tikis until you explain it. We all have to keep working to promote tiki so it doesn't have a turn down. That's why Sven is such a hero.

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

Tiki Hula came over today to play. So I gave him a task to make glaze tests for the newest glazes I'd purchased.

First he shook them up really well.

Then on the bisque forms I'd made he did the three sets on each one. 1, 2 and 3 layers.

All done. These will fire with my next batch.

Next he glazed his Sacramento Crawl mug. He doesn't get to take it home until the crawl.
First he painted the outside in black and then scrubbed it back off leaving it in the cracks.

After he glazed the inside and top edge in clear so that it will stay white he painted the outside in Iron Ore. The black added first will still show through.

All done except for a bit

of touch up. His is the only one with fire cups inside. Sorry guys.

We also went out to lunch.

Afterwards he took us out for frozen yogurt. Yum.

Tomorrow I'm going to start showing more of our trip. I've only shown half so far! Cheers, Wendy
