hang10tiki when we were there last summer we didn't even think to check on available ceramics. We'll have to try Emeryville sometime this year. That's a really nice bowl.

LoriLovesTiki ahhhh

swizzle I'm missing you now. If we don't go are you going to hop a train and arrive here?

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

I've been working so many long days in a row I decided to take the weekend off. That just meant that I would do whatever I wanted to do rather than keep to the schedule. So far here's my weekend.

I started with Amazing Moai. He needed his mouth deepened and some nostrils added.

Such a handsome guy.

Next I remembered that I wasn't really done with the Hula Girl Hot Tub mugs.

Each one needed the strands added to their hair front and back.

That was a lot of carving.

Remember this flame where Dan attempted to drill a hole?

Well since I have two mugs that needed the flames to be complete I got the cast ornaments out to work on. I use these as a base that makes the flames hollow.

I just keep adding sticky clay to the top and the bottom of each one.

I got four made, it's good to have extras. This took an hour and a half and they are just started.

I brought into the house the boxes of new glazes that need test strips done and in one box I found two flames with the holes. I thought I'd done them but where did the other two come from? A mystery of life. At lease these are ready to be glazed.

I took all the projects to the garage and made room to have them sit and slowly dry in open plastic bags.

Next I spent an hour scrubbing this room to get ready to glaze. The plastic table cloth was repeatedly scrubbed along with all the turn tables and even the floor.

The last project of the day was to set up to do the glaze tests for all the new glazes that I have recently bought.

This was my first day off. I wonder what I'll do tomorrow before the work week begins!!!

Cheers, Wendy
