February Class - Cloud Canes

On February 28 we'll be making cloud canes. These are inspired by Mike Buessler. A sample is shown above.

Materials list:

- Blue clay in whatever colour you want your sky to be in, about a package full
- White clay, 1/4 package
- Small bit of black or grey clay, pebble size will be plenty
- Bits of clay that you want for hills in the background

Sharp cutting blade
pasta machine
cutting surface

See everyone on Sunday,

Little canes

At our last meeting Sandy brought in some small empty tape cases. I think she said that she was cleaning up and just couldn't bring herself to throw these little beauties away. I've already filled mine.
Thanks for sharing Sandy.

Shrines

I finally finished the shrine that I started back in November. When Janice announced that she was teaching shrines I hussled to come up with an idea that would make mine "useful" So here it is. I made this for my sister who breeds Pomeranians and in general has a very soft spot in her heart for animals. I made small name tags for each of her dogs that have passed away and I will also include name tags for her remaining dogs. (she can add these namse to the shrine when they pass away) Ok, ok sorry for sounding a little morbid here. Over all I think it's a happy looking shrine and a pleasant way to pay homage.
