On to non-flop earred topics...I finally managed to carve out time to post all the items from my kiln firing 3 weeks ago (yes, three and I'm not sure I even have a good excuse!) so they are now finally on my website. There's another firing as I type so maybe I'll be faster in my posting of the next batch! What do we have this time around? I restocked my keys...
Posted some rectangular cut out pendant/toggle/links...
Added the cutest little itsy bitsy rectangular charms...
And ended up with some interesting glaze variations... I've been experimenting with a new clay body and several of my "tried and true" glazes are turning out quite different than in the past. This is my Avocado glaze...to me it looks a bit like day old guacamole on this clay but I do think it's interesting...just not what I was expecting.
In other news, it sounds like I may have an item or two in Interweave's Beads 2010 issue. It's available here for pre-order. Squinting at the enlargement of the cover it appears that clay is well represented in the issue!
Unfortunately I don't think any of mine made the cover from what I can see... but I also must admit to a serious last minute effort in my submissions, I don't know what I was thinking! I'm super excited to see the issue in person in the next couple of weeks.I really need to crack down on my procrastination for submissions...anyone want to take on the pro bono position of official whip cracker?
