Today Cindy hauled the kids to school and then hit the studio for nine hours of trimming, handle pulling, and lid fitting. She also got a standing order for forty mugs and two tea pots a month for one of the resort shops for the next couple of months anyway. Mike mugs in Mountain Mist and Mountain Mist with Wild Rose. Same with the tea pots. We were hoping for July to be a light month when we could play a bit and have some invention time but looks as if we may have to re schedule. I worked in the office again today on the Dragon story and on the web page. Added testimonials to the ad page for the DVD and set up international shipping on the order page. That turned into a real hair puller, as if I had any to spare! Took almost four hours to get done and published.
Back at the studio the bisque pots have finally cooled so they can be unloaded and the pot bottoms waxed. Getting ready for another glazing session. When we work together at it we can glaze a pile of pots in a short time. We have a couple of internet orders waiting for a few of these pots then the rest go to retail clients in Ontario and British Columbia.Should be shipping by mid week next week.
Kids start their final exams at school Monday. Hard to believe its that time of year again already. Man time flies! Short today. Been on this machine too long…jim
