I love working in ceramic, because you have so many different stages of dryness to work it in- each good for different technqiues. I just don't a kiln that goes hot enough for stoneware. low fire was too brittle for me.<br /><br />anyhow- great work!stacilouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337978880639296378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-16423867422730287602015-03-04T16:53:10.956-05:002015-03-04T16:53:10.956-05:00Freebird7100, seriously?

Now, that's all I make and I have to FORCE myself to wait until it's cool enough to open. I end up hovering and watching the temp go down....I get so excited, the anticipation to see how everything turned out, how the glazes look, etc. I love it! And your work is gorgeous!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05967395833868389751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-92183603902193168532015-03-04T15:47:19.608-05:002015-03-04T15:47:19.608-05:00That little "ugly" bead is beautiful, I ...That little "ugly" bead is beautiful, I would love to know how much you would sell it for.

It's...You're right MaryAnn, I'm hooked! It's all your fault! lol I will still buy your amazing beads though! I LOVE them. I did buy that Craigs list kiln. It was meant to be, brand new, never fired. He just didn't like the manual aspect of it and bought one that he could program. Lucky me!<br /><br />Thank you Nicole! (They were supposed to be round, lol)<br /><br />Me too Patti, I am my worst critic. I have learned not to beat myself up all the time. You should get one! Working with clay is so much different than metal. You will love it!<br /><br />Thanks so much Gale! I guess it's the imperfections in the sandblasting that I don't like. I'm amazed at how well the glaze hides mistakes though!<br /><br />Thank you Cindy, I admit to being quite the fan of your work! I love how you changed the way you create too, to accommodate your sweet little puppy!<br />Carol Deklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13342285917792504286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-22490210126734668462015-03-04T11:13:36.058-05:002015-03-04T11:13:36.058-05:00Thank you for sharing and inspiring.

I have seen your work and thought for sure you'd been doing this for decades. Thank you for the reminder not to judge ourselves so much and just *create*.

The sandblasted bead especially!! I have wanted to purchased a kiln for some time now. When I moved into my new home last year, I had a dedicated outlet placed in my studio if the time ever came that I have a kiln. I am not there yet! Maybe someday!<br /><br />HAVE A BLAST (no pun intended!!!)<br />Patti Vanderbloemenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14899971311953499881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-45342864449694070422015-03-04T06:53:38.283-05:002015-03-04T06:53:38.283-05:00Those semi-round brownish earthy beads....I'm ...Those semi-round brownish earthy beads....I'm in love!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04077365144276224558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010443633955755126.post-44013794027950764772015-03-04T06:37:44.624-05:002015-03-04T06:37:44.624-05:00Uh Oh!
