Thick Frost
It's another cold morning here at the barn, thick frost coats the roof tops and garden but at least it's cuppa time and a nice chance to warm up. Still the swans pass over before landing on the winter barley, it must be over three weeks now since they arrived there, every morning they return to spend the day grazing, even tho the young barley shoots must be frozen, nature is amazing at times and a real pleasure to watch.
A busy day ahead with beads to clean, photograph and list on both ebay and etsy this evening and beads to be made including ridge tyres and focals. This afternoon I hope to turn a few pots that need finishing and I want to get more ceramic beads made, I try to get a big batch ready to fire at one time so it takes a week or two to get them made along with the pendants, I think I have around half the amount made already so need a big push this week to get more done. I'm having fun with a few ideas some of which I think will work out ok and even if they don't, well it's been fun trying them.
Ok I better get off to my flame, hot water bottle full to battle the cold and head full of ideas, I find I spend a lot of the day sketching down ceramic and bead ideas now, at one time it was just one single bead note book by my side, now there sits two, no wonder my mind spins at times.
