hang10tiki it's not huge, it's slightly smaller than the War God mug size. Your coffee cup is full of memories as well as coffee.

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

As I glaze projects I don't return the glazes to the garage shelves. I just put them in the nook. If I liked them so much for a project I probably will need them again.

The glaze tests, big Moai bowl and the 10 spitting tikis filled up the bottom level. Now I need to glaze enough for the top level. The Frankoma lamp base is the first to go on the top shelf.

The second item I picked is my Swap mug. I Dream of Hawaii mug. When I sculpted it I knew it was going to be a lot of glazing steps. I was right.

OH NO I made mistake. I wasn't supposed to do the eyes in black.

I scrubbed it all off.

The 3 layers of white under-glaze cover over the leftover black smudges.

After three layers of each color including white on the face I covered the face with two glaze layers of clear.

Once it dries it goes into the kiln to fire.

Now I'll go add this to the swap thread. Wendy
