Today we headed to Cheeky Monkey and rented some Studio space there. The adjacent shop was very well-equipped, so I got to try out some techniques that I have not for several years-- notably mixing fine glass powdered grit with glue medium and painting it on. Brenda, the owner, also gave us a tip on how to make small dots by cutting off bits of thicker rod-- brilliant! We'll see how things work. Val worked on a house number sign to replace one she hates. It was an expensive adventure, as she charged $15/hr/person, inspite of buying over $100 worth of supplies, but hopefully worth it! I am definately going to keep my eyes open for a small, programable glass kiln!
