hang10tiki and LoriLovesTiki this girl appreciates your comments. Thank you.

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

Finishing off the Hula Girl Hot Tubs.

I painted white under-glaze to make the top rim very white. Three layers.

Then I covered it with clear glaze, two layers.

Now all 6 tops are done.

I like to glaze the bottoms of my mugs so I started with them and let them dry.

Then the sides.

I put them outside to dry fast in the sun and wind so that I could fire them.

Into the kiln.

Two days later they are cool and ready to come out.

Onto trays.

Here's the bottom shelf before and

After firing.

Everything that needs enamel paint is now in my messy studio waiting.

Dan and I are taking a break. I think I will still be posting but it depends on what type of play days we have. I know some of you have been patiently waiting for your mugs.

In June I will schedule visits with:

LloydAlohahaha
Wood Tiki
IDoVooDoo
VanceKlinke

All your mugs and done and ready for pickup. Closer to June we'll figure out when you can all come for a visit and to bring me MONEY!!!

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

That leaves Wish List #5 projects still in the works for:

LoriLovesTiki problem still with the glaze moving into the white face
Kenneth G. McNeil doing a complete remake
Jen Tiki came out pretty good, we'll talk

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

So signing off for now and keeping my 37 year long marriage happy by sometimes doing what Dan likes to do.

Cheers, Wendy
