Explosion of packing and posting! part 1

Two familes of Tapirs have gone to loving homes! 


I had busy 10 days just packing and posting. No studio time. Just wrapping, putting them in suitable boxes, wrapping them with craft paper, taping, writing addresses and taking them to post office on foot every day except for Sunday. About 4 hours every day. I call it an explosion of packing! I have posted 24 packets in 10 days. About one third had more than 2 pieces. And packing multiple items is difficult and risky!


Now back to normal. I am posting the-previous day's ordes daily. And I would start making again. I have a few orders for the next firing. Then I will start making larger pieces for exhibition and shows in 2016.


Now I  know how Santa Claus feels!

Here are my out trays, on the 25th, 26th and 29th.






A family of tapirs!

Six baby tapirs were packed like little chocolates and they have gone to a lovely lady in the West.  





This white wren is commissioned by another lovely lady in the North.

And the wren and the Rabbit Girl went to live with a super lady.

About 25 tapirs have gone to loving homes! : ) There were more, but they will be in next post.

What a busy week!

Hello! I have made lots as if there were no tomorrow this week! That's how I felt.

I meant to fit the heads and bodies today, but After packing and posting work, and then making more for the firing, when I noticed, it was already eight in the evening. Then I loaded the kiln. So I called it a day. I will be in London for Etsy Art Exhibition  for a few days , so I may not be able to finish them until next week.





I made a couple of cherubs for Windsor Contemporary Art Fair in early November. Hello Windsor! I have never been there. So I'm excited to peek the castle from afar! :D They are in the kiln now.



The kiln is not fully packed, but I'm satisfied. I always feel bad when I fire it empty. I like efficiency!

Here are a few pieces fired last week!

My first wren. He is tiny! 
The trio now lives with a lovely lady in Birmingham.
