TikiAno I have so much fun playing with Tiki Bob. I see many more to come in the future. I told Dan what you said and he got such a kick out it. ======================================== Tonight for the first time while flipping channels I stopped on the show Anger Management. How fun to find a Tiki Spoon and Fork set decorating the set. The show can't be all bad with this décor. Does it seem to you that Charlie is always staring at the women's chests? ==================================================== Dan's and my favorite store is called the Discovery Shop and it's owned by the Cancer Society. We go there almost every day. On our last visit we bought for $25 a 25% discount coupon good for a month. So today we were meeting friends for lunch and that put us close by two of these shops we rarely visit. So we went to see what they had. It was our lucky day!!! ===================================================== I've started to paint the Zombie Torch mugs. The photo isn't good enough to show that I missed eliminating 1 air bubble in the paint. As it dried it made an ugly dent in the woman's arm. It couldn't be fixed. The paint hasn't been baked yet so I was able to remove it from the mug with a wooden skewer. These final specks were sanded off. I thought about the problem. I have to shake the paint before I use it and this introduces the tiny air bubble. I need to get them out before I brush it on the mug. Then I remembered that when I used to pour models of teeth using a mold I put it on a vibrator and that ran the bubbles to the top where they popped. So I got out this foot vibrator I used before having surgery. I vibrated my foot and the jar of paint at the same time. I was able to do this many skin parts on these mugs in one day because I wasn't hampered by the bubbles. I guess I'll leave the vibrator out now to use each day I paint. This is a very sparkly mug. I used an even more sparkly ceramic paint for his earrings. Here they have dried. I never run out of fun projects. More fun to come in the future.

These final specks were sanded off.
