Fresh Batch

I worked a half day, got home and had a quick bite, then whipped up a fresh batch of paper clay. 

A very large batch! I emptied the paper shredder at work and got about four tighly packed grocery bags full. This should hold me for a while. 

It's been so long since I've done a craft show, I have to remember all the little things I'll need to bring. But I have time to gather it all. November seems so far away, but It will be here before you know it. 

So many ideas so little time! Even though I started planning for the show in January and I have been creating bowls ever since. Of course, not every bowl is perfect so even though I have a lot made, not all will make the cut. 

I'm calling them "MOOD BOWLS".. because I like variety and paint whatever mood strikes at the moment. I also think this gives potential buyers an opportunity to find something that fits them best. 

I'll watch the rest of the movie "A Lust for Life" about Vincent Van Gogh, then roll out some new pieces, that will be ready to paint next weekend. 

Amping it up

So I submitted my request to be a vendor in a really great Art & Craft show in November, 

and it's been accepted!

 My sister and I will be doing the show together. 

I'm excited and I will be in high gear now, making more Paper Clay bowls

 and other ideas rolling around in my head. 

It's been a very long time since my sister and I did a craft show together It's gonna be fun!

   

                                                           Well..... I do have to eat so....

Sun-Baked

More Paper Clay bowls and dishes, baking in the Sun.  They'll be ready by the weekend and I plan on painting all weekend long. 

I even made a card holder for my new business cards. 

I still love that what was once old bills are now clay! 

Like my Grandson says "We're turning junk into cool stuff.
