KILN NEWS !

Not having Internet makes blogging fairly obsolete. I have not added any comments since August, but big news!
my partner found a used kiln on Craig's List. I have a decent Olympic kiln, needs some ceramic bricks replaced and possibly a new coil at some point,  but I was expecting that. I am very excited.

First custom order and what happpens!!!!

Well, I had my first custom order for a ceramic yarn bowl. No problem.  I got busy on my wheel and threw two very nice bowls for the pieces I wanted. I was satisfied and I let them dry and trimmed them and proceeded to get them to the studio to fire them. I wrapped them carefully in some material and placed them on the front seat of the truck. I even made sure to tell a certain someone to be careful that my pottery was sitting there. I moved them because he didn't want them in the truck since he was going deer hunting early in the morning. I got in the house and was unwrapping them, only to discover that he had cracked and broken both bowls. Just the customer's pieces, not the ones I had made miscellaneously. It took me a while to get over being mad at him, but I finally did. Now I just have to make more and buy some new clay, cause I'm out! $60.00 gone-poof!

Sunday Excitement

Well today was very fun and exciting for the simple reason I had an order on my Etsy shop. Not that it was ordinary, it was special in a new way. I received an order fro one of my pottery pieces all the way from London, England! How cool is that! Very cool seeing how the Olympics are there presently! I thought that was really pretty neat and lots of fun. Made my day and me me feel really good. Yippee!<big grin> more later tomorrow, nite all.

Storms, rain wash internet service away.

Well yesterdays plan for adding new listings quickly went down the drain. I guess because of the constant storms and rain there was no getting on the internet until way late in the evening.  (so much for productive marketing)  Shall try again today better luck this time,la,la,la,la,la ......... This is where I would post my sarcastic smiley face!Stay tuned more to come later, bfn, Cinda
