I opened the kiln this morning.
I made a lot of Dot Cabochons.
And these larger Cabochons with the painted rim.
I really like that yummy bleed of color along the edge. :-)
And check these out! They are a collaboration between myself and Marla James..... They are made from the bisque from her
Bisque bead supply website. You have seen her bisque work used by quite a few ceramic artists, but maybe you didn't know it. :-)
I really like these bright clean colors. I do love making this style of bead.
And I made some pottery! I should have spread them out to take photos. There are tumblers, and serving bowls and one "perfect" soup bowl. I am going to be taking these pieces to the Accessories Boutique in Bethlehem (next to the Hotel Bethlehem-Moravian Book Store area ) But I felt bad sending them off so soon, so I decided to have a sidewalk sale and let my Facebook friends know about it. :-)
Sidewalk sales are my kids' FAVORITE thing to do! As soon as I said it, the kids grabbed their handy work and set up shop with me. I sat on the porch and the kids sat out by the sidewalk. Lydia sold 2 butterfly necklaces and Sonya sold 2 of her beads. :-)
Then they spent it all at the grocery store.... Belgian Waffles and ice cream for dessert tonight!
I filled the kiln up again as soon as I emptied it. I am kicking myself for it. It's 8pm and I am going to be awake tending it for a while....... But tomorrow morning, when I get to see all my new pottery..... It will be great!
