hang10tiki I bet you say that to SewTiki every day! Thank you for including my work.

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

I decided to do all of the insides of the mugs. I kept the glaze tile with them so I could then select an appropriate color for the outside.

I did a CN solid color and

then I layered other CN glazes on top.

These should not blend or move.

I did one more this way.

Done.

I filled in the carving and

let it dry.

I did 7 unique PNG and Maori Bobs.

Next I wiped it off so that all the carving shows up such as snake skin.

Done and posing.

Close up.

After all of these were cleaned I painted the white areas with cc white under-glaze. Where ever I covered the black glaze I was able to take a tooth pick and scrape off the white to fine tune it again.

Now I had some fun.

All kinds of eyes

on Bob and

on you.

The last project is for the Xiem Clay Show run by Tiki Roots Rocka.

I've chosen a red brown with green highlights glaze called Autumn.

It's Friday, I hope you are all ready for a fun weekend. It rained here today in Sacramento California and we are grateful for every drop.

Cheers, Wendy

It's the weekend and I've seen on facebook lots of photos of those who are attending Tiki Kon in Portland. What a fun time they are all having.

I'm all done with my summer Enchanted Tiki Hut mug.

The inspiration for the mug is the tiki on the left.

When it was out of the kiln I decided that it needed black in the drum slit for I enameled it and baked it.

All done.

It always feels good to finish a project.

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

More catch up photos.

We went to Tropical Days at the Cancer Society Thrift Shop. Dan wanted to hula but they only laughed.

They danced while we shopped.

Dan lucked out and found some new lounging shorts!

A different day we went to Alpha Fired arts and bought all the glaze for the Sacramento Crawl mug. Now it's set in "ceramic" and I won't be able to change my mind.

Our fridge after 20 years bit the dust. Our new one was delivered by a Hawaiian hula dancer. No Kidding!

He showed his tattoos and I showed him my mugs. Dan just wore his batman shorts.

Guess who wants this mug? KKB. I painted all the faces white with 2 layers of glaze and let them dry overnight.

Here are all the remaining projects waiting for the next step.

The next day I painted all the eyes and mouths.

The next day I did two layers of clear over every face.

This is the eyeball mug, they needed clear too.

The next day I loaded the bottom level and

then the top level. I couldn't fit everything into the kiln so a second batch will be done.

Two days later I opened the lid. I notice that a mug had fallen over and was leaning on two other mugs. Horrors! During firing they would have fused together.

When I reached into the kiln I found that it hadn't fallen until the mugs were cool. None had even gotten a chip. Perfect!

Looking at the bottom shelf I could see some horrible problems. More on that coming.

I still had a few that needed to be glazed so I got to it.

Soon the kiln room was filling up. The hot kiln helped to dry them faster.

Here comes the ceramic defects. Another runny nose. It's summer there should be this problem.

That's not a small run either. The last one that happened to I turned it into the Phantom of the Opera Bob.

The next was a test glaze for one of the Sacramento Crawl mugs. The glaze just crawled away leaving all these skips on the inside. The outside was fine.

The lid and

the body of the HUGE Maori jar had glaze skips everywhere on the outside.

The worst part was this glaze was supposed to be more green than brown.

The inside was fine.

Now it was time to fix the problems. First I added more runs to the face of Torch Bob.

I used a completely different glaze to cover the inside of the mug. But first I scrubbed all the skipped areas in case I'd missed dust when scrubbing this mug. Maybe I forgot to wash the inside.

The I choose a new glaze and

coated the whole jar

with a CY yellow glaze. I hope it works. This piece is for a show at XIEM.

After a few hours in the hot wind they were all ready to fire.

Two days later I opened the kiln.

I found one mug that had a skip. I will fire it with the Sacramento Crawl mugs. Next up will be all the photos I took as I unloaded two full kiln loads. Was my HUGE jar repaired? More soon. Cheers, Wendy

LoriLovesTiki 50 photos and so little time. I do like cliffhangers!

IDoVoodoo also soft and furry.

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

Update on the Sacramento Crawl mug for October 2015.

I made the glaze tests. We choose the best. I've bought the glaze and will soon begin production. Here are the steps and all the information for signing up for one.

These stops are shown using a couple of the mugs so the color skip back and forth.

First I do the inside and then clean off any that gets on the inside of the mug. This step requires it to dry overnight.

I use a wide brush and coat the mug

once and then

twice. It took two coats for the effect I wanted.

This shows how large the mug is. It doesn't shrink during the glazing process.

Now that the mug is dry I wipe off the areas

that will be painted

with color. So I use a CY glaze for the background and CN glazes for the color.

Painting the palm trunks and the coconuts and

the tiki, sign, flowers and

the bird.

This is the one that became the glaze test that I choose.

Here they are drying in the sun.

Fired. The one at the bottom and to your right is the final mug choice.

I am making a total of 60 for the crawl, another 10 were cast for tests and Dan took them, and I reserve the right to change and alter 30 more in the future for Wish Lists etc. where I change or add parts for fun. 100 total plus 1/2 of a bad mug where the top tore off but I saved it. Then I will destroy the mold.

Here's the glaze I found that made Dan and I very happy. The mug looks vintage and it doesn't have glaze runs dripping off the bottom.

This is the glaze test. I will be coloring the bird and other parts even better now that I know this background glaze works.

These photos were taken with a flash. The colors are even better in person. It's actually a bit more green. Since all the additional colors are added there will be differences in how I paint each bird. I need to add color to the chest etc.

Here are the black velvet photos.

I will make the bird more colorful when I do the run. This huge hand carved and detailed mug is special to my Ohana so the price is kept at a low $80 (plus shipping if you don't make the crawl).

Page one of this thread has the list of those who are signing up for one. You can do that here or on my Wendy Cevola facebook page. If you aren't my friend just ask and I'll friend you there. Tiki Central is my home and I post far more here than I do there.

I hope you all like our color choice. It not only looked the best it glazed the best. Cheers, Wendy

Oh, Wendy, the Bali Hai mugs are SO beautiful! Really makes me wish I lived in Sacramento! Just gorgeous. The crawl folks are sooooooo lucky. My stepson and his family do live in Elk Grove, but they're sadly not really tiki-culture folks. Maybe someday we'll get out there, though. But not in time for October crawl :(

And I love seeing pics of my purple Bob! It's like adopting a new baby. Can't wait to have him home! :)

danlovestikis posted on 07/14/2015

hang0tiki The Golden Tiki, oh boy more fun in Las Vegas. Looks like Max is doing a great job. It's about time that your town had more tikis again. I wish I'd seen the AKU AKU. Dan and I did go there when the huge Moai were still up at the Tropicana. I wish we'd been there when Benzart had his tikis there. Thanks for sharing. I just wish you'd had more to post.

KonaKaiBaby how fun that you have a connection to our home town. I've been in Elk Grove since jr. high in the 60's. Very late 60's. The Sacramento Crawl is a very special and fun event. I love making the crawl mug each year. This is the 6th. Anyone can buy one even if they don't go to the crawl. I just don't ship them out until the crawl is over. Crawl people get theirs first.

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

I'm working to get the photos in order and then I'll be posting again. Dan and I are on a tiki road trip and after driving 200 miles today I need to rest. Cheers, Wendy

danlovestikis posted on 07/14/2015

Well, I'm not equipped to post photos while we are on this trip. My computer just thinks for a long time. It took 5 minutes for each photo while on the hotel server. Imagine that!

KonaKaiBaby's purple mug and lunavideogames black cat mug. If they pass your inspection let me know and I'll ship them when we return home.

Cheers, Wendy

Holy moly (again)! Love when I come back for a glaze reveal! Love the new crawl mug, and, as always, am in awe of the glazing details. Love all the new Bobs!

Wow, okay, that's all I got. Hope to see you guys next month (are the rumors still true that you're heading down south for Oasis?) Tiki Ari may (may) make an appearance, but that's still TBD. Ha!

KonaKaiBaby posted on 07/14/2015

Oh, and I'd loooooove one of the Bali Hai mugs, if there's enough! Sign me up! I can crawl with you in spirit :wink:

My stepson and his wife & kids and my stepdaughter moved out to Elk Grove from NYC a few years ago, and they love it. I don't really know much about the area, I just know they're on Sao Tiago Way. But hopefully we'll get out there to see them at some point! And fit a Cali tiki road trip in there, too :)

KonaKaiBaby we will pack him up today. It's so fun to ship to VT. First time that I can remember.

TikiAno I would be in withdrawl if you didn't post such darling photos of Tiki Ari on fb. We will be at Oasis.

KonaKaiBaby if you make it to Elk Grove in the future please let me know and we'll have you all over for a tour and visit.
I'll be very happy to put you on the list for a crawl mug. Thank you.

lunavideogames we plan to try to box and ship today. I'll get back to you with the total. Your cat Bob was one I had to peel out of Dan's hands! It's so much fun to tell him no!

hang10tiki that's so much fun. You are going to have more visitors with all these tiki places that need to be seen. I look forward to when you can post more photos.

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

Well gang we left for Santa Cruz, Monterey and Pacific Grove on Monday. Our GPS was updated during brown out before we left. It said it was completed and I believed it. Bummer to find out that we had no maps at all. Then the first night in the hotel my computers email rejected my password and since it's routed from Comcast to Outlook I couldn't fix it.

We did everything we wanted to do in two days so we drove home yesterday and spent the night in our own bed. Now it's back to tiki work and posting photos.

I'll be back soon with kiln photos and trip photos. Cheers, Wendy

danlovestikis posted on 07/16/2015

Here comes our super fast trip. Dan wanted to leave the heat and go to the coast. It's a three hour drive from our home. The traffic wasn't too bad and we made it to Santa Cruz in time for lunch.

We always go to Stagnaro's near the end of the pier.

We can watch surfers out the window.

We were in the twilight zone and so it wasn't the usual French's Mustard and Heinz Ketchup. When did this happen?

Looking at the Santa Cruz boardwalk we could see a fire in the direction we had just driven.

Shopping in Soquel Dan found a bowl he just had to have. It was super heavy like I make my ceramics.

We drove to our hotel in Seaside and walked over to a Home Depot. We were looking for Tiki Diablo's tikis but they didn't have them yet.

The next day we went to Hula's grill in Monterey for lunch. It's always fun but the workers are oblivious to Tiki Central.

We just got a great deal with Comcast. Now we can check up on our home from wherever we are and it will take photos and video of "visitors". I can check up to see if our niece house sitter is having parties! Creepy!

We walked along the ocean and then to the pier.

There were pretty plants along the sand dunes.

Oh No another selfie!

Behind our hotel in Seaside there is a lake and a park. We walked around the lake twice. It was actually cold out and sprinkled.

We saw this old piñata in a thrift store but left it there.

We left yesterday and antique shopped all the way home. Since I've photographed so many bathrooms I thought this was interesting. Especially in the colors that were chosen as the glaze.

Prince Charles of England collects old bedpans and chamber pots. I bet he'd like this one.

I liked this wood carving a lot. I'm going to make some scary tikis in the future. It' just too much fun to not do it.

Well now we are home. We continued our vacation by going to see San Andreas the movie. We will stay right here and not move to the bay area. This movie was a predictable but movie that kept your eye glued to the screen.

Bye for today, Wendy

As you can see I love to hand carve Tiki Bob's. It more fun to make these unique Bob's than to do one than a run. However I've been told it's time to move on and to make more art away from Tiki Bob. So if I can restrain myself I'll only do requested Tiki Bob's on the Wish Lists from this point on.

That's it for the sale until tomorrow when I'll offer necklaces. If you see any that you would like to have PM or Post here. I'll keep an eye out. Thank you for looking and commenting too. I enjoy it all.

I'll still make them during the Wish List if requested but I need to do new projects so this thread isn't the same old thing, poor Bob.

I'm going to close the Tiki Bob sale here in a couple of days and move it to facebook. Meanwhile I'm working on the crawl mugs and one big project soon to be revealed.

Doug Horne I want to give a shout out to Wendy Cevola and her design of the Tiki Bob mug coming off if his face. I liked the idea of combining the new design with the old designed mug he is holding. A very subtle hint to the Tiki revival. Great design Wendy!

I think it's obvious which one he liked!

There is so much joy in art and in making friends on Tiki Central. I hope everyone who sees us at Tiki Oasis will come up and say hi.

I just wasn't going to be happy until I got to see all of Tiki Diablo's Home Depot tikis. They are finally in Elk Grove.

He did a wonderful job designing these and the quality is really good. Nice and heavy.

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

Dan and I came home from a lunch in Lodi, California. The restaurant we were at had a beautiful bathroom. Yes I still like to find fun bathrooms to share!

When we got home it was on the news that Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis were in Lodi for their honeymoon. Imagine that! Maybe they used this bathroom, well maybe she did.

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

Dan and I went on a tiki hunt. I saw this mug on a shelf.

It is ceramic but the teeth had been painted with an enamel paint.

When we got home I tried to remove the paint with fingernail polish remover but that didn't work.

So I took a razor blade and scrapped off as much as I could.

I just followed the lead of the original artist and painted the teeth with more enamel. Dan now likes this mug a lot.

He's called Amazing because of the maze on the back. If this indicative of the rest of Wendy's work, it is truly amazing! Heavy, solid and BIG! I love it!

Biotron2000 I bet he's no longer sad now that he has a new home. I'm super happy that you like him and posted here. Thank you, Wendy

hang10tiki I wonder what the woman's bathroom looks like. At first I thought you would yell into the cone to talk to another room.

We are having fun, everyday is a tiki adventour. We watch the news and see people cut off going to Vegas on 15 due to the fire and then on 10 due to the bridge collapse. I would rather be trapped in Vegas, one of our favorite places along with our friends to hang out with.

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

Back in 2012 I made a mug with a flame on top that I called The Zombie's Torch. It was based on this menu.

Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/1474/4591c5d9.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=cf2e9377d1d3bd76b905d658bc2e7c16

I started by making 50 flames. Then I cast 30 of the mugs. The molds were bad and it took me hours on each mug to make them just right. So after 30 I quit. I sold those with the understanding that in the future I would finish the run so that I could use up the other 20 flames.

Since I numbered the first 30 as 1/30, 2/30 I had to make the last 20 in different color combinations. I have finally finished. Now all the flames have been used.

In the past I showed all the steps to the making of each mug and how much carving I had to do. For the last ones I glazed them and these photos show how I paint them with enamel.

I have to paint them lying down so that the paint doesn't run.

Once they have dried overnight I can stand them upright.

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

ebtiki thank you. I'm kind of sad to know that I'll not make the version with the flames on top any longer. I do make the mug version without the flame via Wish List requests.

hang10tiki I like visiting you and seeing your collection. One day I hope you'll visit us here.

Biotron2000 I have 4 left and ready to ship $125 plus shipping. I'm so happy you like them.

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

I'll be back to work on the Sacramento Crawl mugs today and if I don't wear myself out I'll have photos to post tonight.

Your comments just lift me up and then my day starts off perfectly. Thank you all, Wendy

mug version without the flame. Mahalo Tiki Will have 7 of these at his booth at Tiki Oasis.

Sold Out last two went to KonaKaiBaby and Tom Grill. Thank you all.

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

Update on the Sacramento Crawl mug due the first weekend in October.

There are so many steps to making a run of mugs. While I worked on painting the Zombie Torch mugs I printed out the autograph cards for the mugs. Then one evening while the TV was on I numbered them and autographed them. I used the inspiration for the mug, a advertisement in an old phone book, as the card. Since I will eventually make another 40 I kept writing 100 and then I had to tear up the card. There will be 60 in this color for the crawl. Some of the rest may even have a different bar name when I use it for the Wish List. The mold will be destroyed when 100 have been made.

Dan taped 60 boxes for me. I numbered them

on the top and two sides and lined them up down a hallway.

I added the appropriate card to each box.

Now it was time to start glazing the mugs. First I put a piece of tape on the bottom of each one.

Now as I glaze the layers on the bottom no glaze will reach the areas where the tape is located.

I did this all in my dining room. Scary! No spills.

After the bottoms had a chance to dry some I pulled off the tape.

All these blank areas will be where I number the mugs 1/60 etc.

I hope you are all out having a good Saturday. I'll be glazing away but later we are meeting Mahalo Tiki for dinner.

Cheers, Wendy

hang10tiki they are still waiting for a new home. I think everyone is out having a great weekend...as it should be.
First the 15 fire, then the 10 bridge collapse and now the roof of the Cosmopolitan goes up in smoke. That's three so you should be OK now.

===========================
Update on glazing the Sacramento Crawl mug for October 2015.

I opened all the jars for glazing the inside of each mug and scraped all the crystals off the bottoms and shook them really well to disperse them.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a44f.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=de3d046b6f0eae506cc7394422a31079

I sprayed the inside of each mug and then I poured the glaze in and out of five mugs and that used up one $18 jar of glaze. I have 60 mugs to do. The glaze was far too thick and too expensive and I didn't have enough jars.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a427.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=920b7f08cb2b6f39c03bf8ce88e04b28

THE REMEDY.

So for the next batch I filled the mug with water and then poured it into the next mug. I did this for five and I still had enough glaze left to do 5 more. Yippee this looked just right in thickness.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a441.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=613304e86650a0105defe0106936148c

As I finished I turned them upside down so the the bottom of the mug didn't get runoff water.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a433.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=3cc2123bc88493595a035dc68d43e89f

So now I started again. Pour it in and rotate until all the sides are glazed a couple of times.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a419.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=155102fb42c2567f6fc04bc7ef90caad

I buy glass vases in thrift store in the sizes that fit mugs that I make. So while I'm glazing I have a couple draining into the vase. This keeps too much from accumulating at the bottom of the mug which can cause the mug to crack during firing.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a402.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=54ea3abb9d00f4a37526dc5af1e17dd3

I used a cloth to wipe off any that ran to the outside of the mug. It took one day to do the 60 mugs.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a3f9.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=57523ddc40080b2435d33a41822c15d7

I use the empty jars so I washed them. Two things, you do not want the crystals to go down the drain because they will build up and make a blockage.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b5a3ec.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=ac3c33ce65a2d1efae2b9854dbfce79f

Second I just pour the rinse water through the wire mesh and I can add these to other jars of the glaze or save them to mix with clear and have a new glaze. I think I'll save some up from a lot of different jars and then have some fun.

Cheers, Wendy

Sacramento Crawl mug update. Glazing the outside of the mugs.

I bought more glaze than I needed but it's now my favorite so over the years ahead I'll use it up.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b63ab2.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=acd7e4bdb70345a4fea65d9dae0f25e0

Here's why I save clean jars. Many glazes are too thick to use with a brush or with the air compressor. I split them in half.
Image Missing: https://tikicentral.com/resize.php/uploads/251/55b63aa2.jpg?w=1280&h=1280&fit=max&sharp=5&s=88073ca522cc87d5e083bd91ca01c955

I add water and shake them up. Then they are ready to use. I had enough jars to split 6 at a time.

Remember that even hand oil with make glaze crawl away so scrub your hands before touching your bisque fired ware.

This is the first time I was smart enough to get every wheel I own and to put them in a circle on a wire table. Now I can do nine in a row before they need to be moved.

Dan's my mover shaker. He'll load and unload the table while I do all the spraying.

I will also start the capillary action by spraying the outsides with water before spraying with glaze.

I put all my mugs on top of kiln spikes. I can then spray to the bottom and the build up of glaze on the turntables doesn't have to be washed off until the end of all the spraying.

First the water and

then the glaze. Layer one.

I let them dry for 15 minutes. I don't want any "runs".

Then I do a second layer. Depending on how you want your glaze to look you can do three or more.

We are on the way!

Here is how Dan carried the damp and glazed mugs from one table to the next. He is careful not to touch the outside of the mug.

The last batch at the end of a long day.

They have all been carried back into the house.

You can see that there is over-spray on the insides of the mugs. I'll show the "fix" tomorrow.

Purple Bob is home! He's not in his permanent spot yet, as my husband is still erecting the new shelves behind the bar (fingers crossed they'll actually be up by bedtime tonight!). But he's hanging out in the dining room for now, getting to know all of his new friends :)

Wendy, are there any of the topless wahine flame top mugs left? I don't get paid until next week, but I would love one, if possible. But if not, I'm sure you'll make something else soon that I can't live without! :)

Wendy,

Just catching up on your thread after our European vacation through Northern Italy, Austria, Slovenia then Greece. Your creations just keep getting better and better! The Bob variations, zombie torches, crawl mugs and custom fogcutters look fantastic.

Any chance the Blue Tapa Fogcutter is still for sale? If so, please mark me down for it.

Cheers!

Tyber Tiki
