OK, I expect to have a lot of funny comments about these necklaces. When I made the last batch of Hot Tub Hula Girls I saved the feet and rear ends that I have to cut off to fit the girl inside the coconut. I didn't squish them this time. Instead I saved them in a bag. Then one day I had an instance of creative genus! I would make these into very special necklaces. I went to work. On each one I would carve a TRAMP STAMP! Since I would do tribal designs they would be called Hula Tramp Stamps!!! Brilliant, right? I made 6 during a free time and added them with the squished head to the kiln. Once out of the kiln I started by glazing the backside, ha ha, of each one. Next I filled in the carving with black and then I glazed the front. I did a bit of touch up with a pin and then they were ready to fire. Done. I would like to hear comments on my super new, out to left field, most desirable necklace. To anyone who is willing to wear one of these at Tiki Oasis 16 make a plea and I'll bring it to the event for you. There are only 6 and one head so the first 7 to post will win. Cheers, Wendy |
