rum on the Rideau it's so good to know that I'm hiding the effort so well. Sometimes I think about a wish for days while trying to sleep before I do it. Working it through in my mind has always worked well. Especially for making a mold. Thank you for being my new fb friend.

================================

Wish List #8 finishing the glazing of the spitting tiki mugs. Thank you hang10tiki and Tiki Hula for all the helpful photos for these tikis. I use them all the time when doing my Black Velvet paintings too.

I had finished four and I had these 6 to do.

I filled a dish with black satin glaze and dipped the top of each mug into it for 30 seconds.

It coated the tops really well.

While the top dried I worked on the bottom rim.

I finished off the side of the top rim and then

when the top was dry I flipped the mug over and did the underside of the top rim.

When the mug was dry I used a wet paper towel to clean off the bottom.

The last one is done and

I put them outside to finish drying. Everything on the table will fit onto the bottom level of the kiln.

Now I need to glaze enough for the top level. It's fun to pick and choose what project to do next. Cheers, Wendy
