Do you remember my 'mold-making project' that I've been working on? I've been working on a little mini-series of a child's breakfast and lunch set while brushing up on my mold-making skills at the same time. While I've had a few plaster disasters along the way, it has been a good little project to embark on. And the boys are loving each design that I bring home for them so that's a good sign. I just finished the mold for the cup and should be able to have a whole little place-setting finished in the next couple of weeks. Glaze-wise, I've been working on a lady-bug, a turtle and this mama Owl and her baby so far. My method (painted with Cone 6 glazes using my 'stencil/masking' technique) makes them food-safe, dishwasher safe, microwave safe and all-around kid friendly, especially because they stack and have sturdy bottoms and sides for little clumsy hands. There's more to come so stay tuned...
