Rainy day update

It's raining out. I love the sound of rain! My hubby and I went to the book store today to get new books, I wanted to see if there were any new clay books I had been eying while I was there as well. My foot is still bugging me, but it's slowly getting better.

I'm almost out of hand conditioner for my clay, so I put in an order yesterday for some more along with some new texture plates and templates. I'm so excited about starting on a few new ideas I had. Right now I am working on a Hugin & Munin pendant. I'm very big on history and mythology, and I wanted to start a line of pieces that are influenced by some of my favorite things. I'll post pictures and a story of my raven pendant once it's complete. Right now I am debating on coloring ideas for the birds. I want them to look seperate.

I picked up an apothecary jar to throw my shaping tools in (I need organizing ideas for my stuff; which is just all over the place!). Cleaning and organizing my workspace is high on my To Do List. One of my cats, Rory; loves to do some cleaning himself. That is...he likes to get on my desk and knock everything off. He has an obsession with knocking things over, and he waits until you're not looking. I moved all of my clay stuff to a desk in the other room and now that he knows that desk is used for important stuff, he gets up there and knocks it all off. It drives me bonkers. He knows that...and he loves it. I swear all I need to do one day is stick a Swiffer pad on him and he'll do his own cleaning. He's quite a jester.
