  1. Got my first commission today. I'm not actively selling at the moment so this is an exciting development.

  2. Anyone miss me? I got locked out when I changed my email.

      I felt like I was in a sci-fi movie. I kept yelling, "Help, Help me". But noone could hear me. I am never going to change my email again. It was so scary.

  3. Mt favorite part of Christmas. Only one stirring is me. Got two of my first thrown pieces in the kiln: waiting to see how they turned out. Merry Christmas.

  4. I allowed someone into my studio on Christmas day...I don't do that. But I'm thinking that its going to be OK if I 'open up' a little more. Still processing that thought.

  5. unloaded container tester of everything bu 2 electric kilns. Organizing a forklift to get the big one off the truck. Enjoying now furnish living room with a view and fireplace. Love being here.

  6. Received an Etsy order just after midnight...with request to have it shipped "in the next hour'...hmmm, that would be a "No" :)

  7. Up to my ears in packing peanuts today. I hate peanuts. Actually, "hate" is not a strong enough word.

  9. 85% load on the truck. large kiln went up the ramp on a double cart.

  10. Very sad news, I will not be able to take ceramics next semester...it looks like my hobby will be put on hold for quite some time, as we currently do not have the finances to set up the rest of the necessary equipment in our current space.

  11. My brain hurts. Think I fried some synapses.

      Sing this song while you make pots. "Give me love, give me clay, give me wheel to throw, Give me hope that my kiiiiln won't go coooooold," and repeat.

  12. Can't get into the studio. Fresh paving laid between house and greenhouse door. Not allowed to walk on it yet. Which book do I want to re-read?

  13. I finished the building part of the toony-ish fox head and posted pics in my "w.i.p." thread, if you'd like a peek. ♥

  14. I'm having to work out systems for making pots , ince my back has been complaining is a screaming voice. Scar tissue from previous back surgeries is pressing on a nerve bundle. Every movement is very painful. sigh

  15. I had a relay fail after 72 firings. Sigh, I had put off getting spare parts to my next order.

  16. Starting to get a feel for what a "rhythm" looks like in the balancing act of 'making and marketing'...'makes me appreciate much more those who do this full time in the clay world.

  17. We celebrate Thanksgiving in the US today...just want to say how thankful I am for my friends here on the forum...wherever in the world you may be :)

  18. Losing heat. My lid has gaps. Any suggestions?
