Default And MORE lentils

These are so much fun, its hard to stop! I made a simple bullseye cane of
pink and green for Lisa's beads and then used the leftovers on the oriental
styled ones. The gold ones are mud, practice, practice, practice..
Thank you for looking,
Diana

Aww.. thanks Candace!
This is just what I needed. Im going thru a dry spell in quilting, as in, I
dont want to sew right now, and needed to get back to clay. All it takes
sometimes is finding a fun new technique and an appreciative audience.
Are you planning to give this a shot? Whats really nice is if you dont like
how it turns out after you flatten it, you can give it a few more larger
swirls under the plastic and re-bicone the ball, then reflatten. Its
exciting... but now my hands are tired and Im almost out of mud. :-(

It's on my list of things to try, and soon! I need to find a decent piece
of glass first.
I, for one, am glad you're having a dry spell with quilting. It means more
lovely eye candy for me! hahahahahah!

I'm using a piece of plastic that came from a CD case. Its small enough to
fit my hands nicely, and the little edges help me hold it level.
Sooz is never going to let me forget I make beads you know. Hmmph... to
fiddly to sand and buff. Ill leave that up to you guys.
If you ever feel like IM on yahoo my thingy.. id? is lunamom44
Diana, getting ready for a nap in sunny WI
btw... those gold beads are cured now.. if you feel like taking on the
sanding, buffing process theyre yours... just tell J thats its ok to give me
your addy. :-)

Lovely lentils, Diana!

Um, yeah, I found my way over here after my clay addiction became
overwhelming I tried some lentils, too, although mine look more like
buttons (the edges aren't flat enough). Right now, they're in the
tumbler. If they look half-way decent when done and polished, I'll post
pics.

Cheers,
Carla

I can hardly wait to see them!
Are you putting holes in before baking? I found that slowing at the very end
is helping me get nicely rounded beads. Sometimes Im getting ovals. Nice
shape but not what I'm going after.
This is great, the newsgroup seems to be picking up again! yay!
