Seasons change and so do I, you need not wonder why........


When Ornamentea's current stock runs out, many Elaine Ray creations will no longer be available on line. Take a look here: http://www.ornamentea.com/ElaineRayRetiring.htm Get those items while you can and be ready for exciting ideas in the works. Some are cooking in the kiln right now -so opening my kiln tomorrow morning is what I'm looking forward to.

For you lucky people living in or near Raleigh, stop by Ornamentea. The selection in the store is way more diverse than what is possible on line, and...... it there will be even more to chose from at my trunk show September 24 and 25.

Hope to see you there!

PS - Take a look at this from Cynthia:

Time to say Good bye to a lovely friend ... last spring I started to use a new glaze that soon became one of my favorites: Leaf

Glazes and their components change over time and the magic seems to have slipped away from this one - so it I can no longer create beads of this beautiful color. If you want to snatch up any that are left, check here at Ornamentea.com to see what they have left in stock, because when it is gone, it is gone!

On a brighter note, keep tuned .... I have the kiln loaded with a new greenish color that also loves the buff clay. My plan is to fire the kiln tomorrow, so I may have pictures on Saturday.
