Great Encouragement
When I listed the ceramics cups etc in the shop Sunday evening, I was hoping that I might get a few bits of feedback from people who see them and to be honest with you I really didn't expect too much as I'm only just starting off in the art and these first pieces are just simple small vessels.
Well I can't believe how many emails and messages I've had from customers who have seen them and all I can do is thank you all for every one of them. It will be another long journey as it was when I was teaching myself lampwork but I'm sure my pieces will improve as they already have over the last few months, yes I know I have a long way to go but I'll get there and I'll enjoy every minutes of it I'm sure.
I know none of my bead customers are interested in ceramics and I know it will be a while before I build up any kind of customer base but I never for one minute thought I would get such support and encouragement from some of you and thank you all so much, it really means a lot to me.
Today here at the barn I have another interesting day ahead with bead making taking up the main part of the day followed by ceramic bead making this afternoon and if I get time I hope to throw a few more pots this evening. This coming weekend I hope to list a wide selection of ceramic beads in the etsy shop plus a few more vessels, the beads will be in some brighter colours as I want to get as many shades into the shop as possible, both disc beads plus round beads will be listed, I just want to get something for everyone in there and over the next few weeks I hope that will be the case.
Pendants are also on my list of items to produce, I have so many sketches of pendant ideas and I really need to find the time to get some of them made, I know they are not to every ones taste but hey, if we only made what people want it would be a very boring world.
Ok, back to my torch and we hope a dry day here in the fens, enjoy your day and once again thank you to all those who found time and took the trouble to comment on my ceramics.
Glad that people are giving you lots of support with the ceramics that you are making. Take heart and keep at it Rob! Erika xxx
