Ugh<br /><br />Hi Joanne, thanks, I try to make a variety of price points to sell and these are popular. I have some leaves for fall colors made as well.<br /><br />Hi Parkland Potters, thanks, I usually don't think ahead, but this time I did, hopefully it will pay off. I also make pendants but I already have enough of those bisqued.<br /><br />Hi Barb, thanks, yes when you have to pay the electric bill and the the cost of the kiln your mind starts trying to think of ways to be more efficient for sure.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-51087161422411181782014-10-09T17:04:44.007-04:002014-10-09T17:04:44.007-04:00Good for you thinking ahead...having your own kiln...Good for you thinking ahead...having your own kiln you get a different perspective!Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-53956785649698775042014-10-09T13:55:49.357-04:002014-10-09T13:55:49.357-04:00I love to fill the spaces in my kiln but seldom th...I love to fill the spaces in my kiln but seldom think to make ahead. At our guild we make similar tree decorations for our tree in our gallery. All proceeds go to a local charity. This is always a very successful project.Parkland Potters Guildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12824307181029631089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-14508768266332761512014-10-09T13:18:46.784-04:002014-10-09T13:18:46.784-04:00I like these.

I'll look again this year.Joanne Noragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834682329952369721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-14310120873105086702014-10-09T12:31:45.043-04:002014-10-09T12:31:45.043-04:00Always good to have kiln fillers.

I think I just can't compete with what other people sell them for. They are a lot of work... all those edges need to be cleaned up... tedious!<br />Michèle Hastingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346907762804197879noreply@blogger.com
