Wild weekend

Well, wild life weekend anyway! This fellow was clinging to my office window with his body plastered up against the glass yesterday. I wouldn't have known he was there except my pup started going ballistic trying to figure out how to climb on to the desk top to reach the window! I had to run back downstairs for the camera so didn't get a picture until he moved to the tree. There's been a whole family of hawks hanging around for the last week or two, I think this guy is one of the kids and got a little confused trying to make his way through my window!Another batch out of the kiln this morning, here's one of my Key Connectors in Robin's Egg. I also did a Zinnia Connector with this glaze. It's definitely one of my new favorites. I'd love to this with tan or brown leather cord but I can think of so many options for it!

This is another new glaze, a matte, sandy type of finish. Any suggestions on a name? It's obviously a lovely blue green turquoise shade but I think it needs a catchier title. Hmmm, maybe a little giveaway incentive for the person who comes up with the best name?? Yep, that's what I'll do- comment here with what I should call this glaze and the person I choose will win a little surprise. Title or not, I'd love to know what you think of it- do you like matte finishes or do you prefer glossy?
