I've cast everything that I could think of for Wish List #7. If you held a place it's time to send me the project. On this day I decided to cast another Maori lamp. As I started pouring in the slip Dan mentioned that it looked thick. I agreed but since it's such a large cast I didn't think the slip would have trouble poring back out. 2 hours later Dan poured out the slip but didn't use the flashlight to check. The next morning I looked inside and could see all the slip that didn't pour out. When I opened the mold the cast melted like the wicked witch of the west. It's not a total waste. I put this mess into plastic and I'll use it as sticky clay when I do custom projects. At a thrift store we found some more TV trays. I've covered them with casts and I've filled the garage shelves one by one. Then I filled the dining room table, one end and then the other. Now I have all the casts ready to grab to do each Wish. I'm looking forward to another run of great ideas. Cheers, Wendy |
