Loki-Tiki you made me laugh out loud. He does look so sad.

Tyber Tiki ouch that sounds horrible. I hope you have fully recuperated. Did you read that I'm doing Dan's lamp first to check out the glaze. Then you'll be able to see if you like it or want something different.

My brace is preventative. I dislocated my jaw biting into a pear. Now a CT scan shows that I don't have part of the top of the bone that fits into the joint. I guess I wore it away although I've never chewed gum. They think I may grind my teeth at night. Dan said in 37 years he's only heard me do that once. Oh well we all have something and I'm lucky there isn't any pain.

MaroneTiki well thank you sir. The maze on the back is as hard as I could make it. He doesn't have a home. Interested? Do we get to tour your home in October? Marlene is looking for homes for Saturday.

lunavideogames going to Tiki Oasis is still up in the air. If I can get a hotel room at the event then maybe. I'm watching the tread for the time to log on and try. I would like to see you and go to Ocean Beach where you work.

What I'm making for the event is a space themed bowl in three pieces that will be fused together with glaze. I'll share photos soon. If you like it and want it then I'll have to decide if I should make something else for Oasis and let you get this one. Stay tuned for space updates!

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

I continue to do so many projects at once that our home is truly a tiki factory. Today a man was here to inspect the heater and he said are there any other people like you out there? YES there are.

Progress on Wish List #5 continues. I'm doing all the projects that have instructions as to glazing. When I get to the rest I'll contact each of you on how to proceed.

This Wish is from Joanne. It is a Zombie Village mug. It will be yellow with red spots. I will be painting the woman as I have all the Zombie Torch mugs except this one will have a black skirt.

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

These mugs are for Dale, Lloyd Alohahahaha and Muskrat. They are the Zombie Hut/ Coral Reef mugs made for the first Sacramento Crawl. At the time these were made I said that since it was the only mold I owned (made by a friend Mike. L.) that I would make specials in addition to the run.

So here some are in progress.

They will be brown rather than the black like the run of 50.

Done and drying. After they fire I will hand paint these to enhance the design.

I made one extra in red.

This mold was still in good shape but it's time to say goodbye.

one last look at each piece and

waving goodbye I

took out the ax and whacked it to pieces.

That was my first mug that I did on my own. My first idea/project was the Bloody Maori that Gecko'z produced. A lot has been done in the last 4.5 years. Thank you all for being with me during this time.

Cheers, Wendy
