site scavenging...

Quite a busy lil day today started with cleaning my new shelves and thinking about the new setup which i hope by the end of this wkd is all happening....the 2nd shelving kit is about to be liquid nailed to the framework and bolted in a couple of spots...I hadn't realised the amount of gear i had on these shelves so a lil securing is def. called for..

so that was all done and i headed down the club to get started on some more tiles..all white on white is the concept it prob will evolve but that's where i'm starting from and mixed up a few white slips and got to work forming the tiles...when I arrived today jess says how about we fire up the raku?? it looked a bit like rain and after a few spots we were all set..

jess, anna and the girls had been site scavenging for some wood earlier and came back with quite a load! We are very lucky at the mo to have some building development nearby and lots of offcuts just waiting for us!! unfortunately it's also been raining a lot this week and some of the timber being rather wet wouldn't burn,....
so temp dropping some drastic action was called for hence the new frock jess is modelling, the new eco friendly placky number previously containing wood slithers..super great for finishing off the firing.. jess's super lil kiln nearly took off hitting reduction whilst firing and a red hot flue to boot..a rather lovely day again, it's getting dark early now and i headed home to get all warmed up by the fire with a nice glass tonight...hope you all have a lovely wkd..
