hang10tiki thank you. Did you find a copy of Tiki Magazine yet?

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

Wish List #6 started in September 2015. One day at a time. A lot has been shipped but there's more to go.
Victoria added a Hot Tub Hula Girl to her collection. I spy one of my Tiki Bobs there two.

Rich T. on facebook ordered these two Frankoma bowls.

The first will be black on the outside with red bursts of color and a Caribbean Blue on the inside.

For this bowl I began on the outside. I didn't want any specks of black to get on the bowl once the inside is glazed.

Adding the second layer.

When I did the third layer I made sure there were red crystals placed all over where they would look good.

Oh no, I want to glaze the inside and the ouside is still wet. So I put a second wheel on it and then lifted and

flipped and I was good to go.

All done. I never put crystals where there is detail. It will fill up the indentations and make them flat.

Because I did the outside first I have to brush on the interior glaze.

Second layer.

Third layer and all done.

For his second bowl he wanted two green/blue glazes with crystal bursts. I used the same techniques as I did on his first bowl.

Since these two glazes clash in color I asked it I could put a band of black around the top to separate them and

he agreed.

I didn't get a photo of that part done on this day but I will later on.

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

I'm looking at my Tiki Magazine article every day. I hope that many of you will see it at least once. Cheers, Wendy
