Functional List

Here is a list of the items that we will try to make this week and in the next few weeks.

Honey pots, garlic keepers, small medium and large lidded jars, jewelry holders, tea bowls/cups, soap/lotion dispenser, orchid planters, planters, berry bowls, butter dishes, butter bells, soap dishes, toothbrush holders, tumblers, mugs, spoon rests, utensil holders, prep bowls, pet dishes, yarn bowls, wall planters, and fruit bowls (large bowls).

That’s everything we’ve come up with so far, if you can think of anything else or of anything you would like us to make let us know.  Well I’m headed to the studio for today, and tomorrow the World (aquarium that is).

At it Again

I had the last two days off from work, so I decided to try and work in the studio as much as I could. I ended up working for about 12 hours (off and on) the first day, and about 7 1/2 hours (off and on) on the second day.  Here are pictures of the work I made during that time.

Starting at the top of this first picture are some tea cup/bowls.  Behind them are the lidded vessels from the last post.  Next shelf down are some  spoon rests and soap dishes.  On the bottom shelf there are some planters that Keturah had me make.  She's going to make some orchid planters that hang on the wall out of them.

The top shelf of this photo are some honey pots with lids.  The middle shelf has some more tea bowls/cups, and some jewelry holders.  The bottom shelf has some cups that Keturah will sculpt handles for.

This last photo is of the stamp we put on all of the work that comes out of our studio.  It's an enso, it symbolizes the absolute enlightenment, strength, elegance, the Universe, and the void (Wikipedia).

I'm going to sneak this photo that I took of a cucumber that is currently growing in our garden.  I thought it was cool because it grew itself into and enso.
