What can I say;
I am moved! Thank you!
Helena, Hope you enjoyed Anzac Day today. Your fantastic scuttle helped a solider wake up and get ready for a long day. OB
Helena,
I'm no photographer so I hope this will do.
I love the scuttle, it makes lather in no time at all and keeps it nice and warm. This will save a lot of time in the morning.
My wife loves the custom colour theme and that it matches our bathroom. OB
It's about being CREATIVE with pottery,
not just pottery production!
King Parrot, ready to be painted!
Wonderful weather,
exceptional pottery,
creative sculptures
and great reviews....
Thanks to everyone
for attending!
Cheers, Helena

I had a play around taking some photos of a lather I made using your beautiful scuttle you made.
As you will see the brush I'm using is one of the biggest and the most luxurious on the market, a Simpson "Chubby" 3 in super badger hair and i used Mitchell's "wool fat" shaving soap both hand made in England.
Cheers

When we got the theme ‘Balance’ for the 2014 Open Studios, my first thought was to say the word with the accent on the other syllables… 1“ bal - ANCE” - “BAL-ance” 1then it struck me - “BALL-ANTS”
1HONEY ANTS - Honey pot ants, they are so yummy in every way, shape, form and they balance off the roof of their caves. BALL ANTS
This ant’s abdomen is hugely swollen with nectar.1Honey pot ants serve as living larders for the ant1colony. They are so valuable that raider ants from1other colonies will try to steal them for their food1stores. Australian aboriginal people consider1these ants a sweet delicacy.
My hand blown glass 'Honey Ants'. Very pleased with the results. Special thanx to the Healesville Glass Blowing studio for the use of their equipment andtheir help.
Open Studios Exhibition: Balance 
Jarmbi Gallery | 19 April - 18 May
This year’s group exhibition theme of ‘Balance’ was chosen by the
artists and is sure to generate some new and interesting work. This
exhibition is a unique opportunity to see and experience work from each
of the artists in one gallery, making Burrinja a great place to start
the Open Studios weekend tour.

'One Of'
shortbread stamp designs available...
I have them, the shortbread stamps and the little discs, are wonderful and I am truly delighted. I am already trying to think of what else you could make for us.
I love the artisan tactile feel, the colour and shapes. The pleasure has been mine.
Best wishes and thanks,
Barrie
