Here's one of my tree luminaries. This one is glazed an olive green with a yellow star at the top. I have one of those battery operated votive candles inside. I'm keeping the light on because I'm firing the kiln right now. I spent all day yesterday glazing. I have four more luminaries in this firing and other work so stay tuned for photos soon.
The winter vortex arrived and it's 27 F outside but the kiln room is nice and toasty. I gave Barney a wool blanket. That might seem exorbitant but I got it at a thrift store. Hopefully he's staying warmer. Gary said he saw Barney go in his covered bed the other day but he came back out. Gary also said he's seen Barney going in the culvert under the driveway. When it's raining he couldn't go in there since it would be full of water. I just peeked outside and Barney is snuggled up in his wool blanket. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
Your ceramics are looking so beautiful. I especially like your ornament tree.

ReplyDeleteHi Gigi, thanks so much, with the battery operated votives these are safe for out of doors or for a child.
ReplyDeleteLove that luminary. A GOOD witches hat.
ReplyDeleteAnd great that Barney is loving his blanket.
Good to have Barney warm so you won't worry about him. Great looking tree! I love trees!
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, thanks, I was once a wicked witch on halloween and I make my own witches hat and I even made an ugly mole to put on my face, I have the photo somewhere in my boxes, one of these days I might find it. Ha. memories are GOOD
ReplyDeleteHi Barb, thanks, yeah good not to worry Gary says to me, he's just a cat but still if he is here I worry about him.
Cat + wool blanket = true love.
ReplyDeleteHi Joanne, thanks, I hope so, I do worry about him, alhough before we moved here he endured 6 F. but still he is my charge since moving here. not to be crude but just can't let him piss all over our house, he's been an outdoor cat for too long.
ReplyDeleteLove the color green on that luminary. Very nice. Barney is a handsome fellow, glad he likes his wool blanket. I've told you my Dad's name is/was Barney, right?
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara, thanks, that's kind of an olive green, no you didn't, how funny, Gary said his friends in high school used to call him Barney because they said he was just like Barney on the Flintstones.
