Lots of pots are drying under plastic. We've had to use our air conditioning since it's been getting up to 90 F on several occasions. At least it cools down at night.
I made a few of these touristy tiles since we get a lot of out of town visitors to the farmer's market. I am trying to think of items to sell that are at different price points. I'll use RIO (red iron oxide) in the letters and put a transparent glaze over these. I've inserted a little wire hanger.
Here's my first attempt at a simple design for a sponge holder. May need to make some type of a jig to keep these from splaying out. Oh I know I could have draped them over a 2 x 4 and taped them down, next time.
I used my Queen Anne's lace to impress a few large platters, bowls and baskets. I plan to use transparent glazes over these and hopefully the glaze will pool in the impressions. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
Lots of great looking work, Linda! I'm sure you'll sell out. How about a tile with G.R.I.T.S.? (Girls Raised in the South)

ReplyDeleteHi Cazz, thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteI think those tiles are a great idea...and one that would create interest at the markets, and draw people to your other products as well...and cause folk to reach for their wallets. :)
