Yesterday was a big day for me: we went to buy the kiln! :)
I had decided on the one I wanted some time ago but started to doubt the evening before we left and changed my mind completely when we saw a new model.
This is the one I'm going to get:The other pictures are from the ceramic supply shop Robbelien in Swalmen, Netherlands. It's like paradise for the crafter among us. They not only have ceramic supplies but lots of other goodies too. On the way home we also stopped in another place that also has ceramic supplies and there I bought the things that Robbelien didn't have. Want to see my loot?I think this will last me a while... although we will go back to pick up the kiln in about three weeks so I will be tempted again! :)
Oh, and if you care to see our kitchen where all these supplies are stalled out, it got featured in Star of The East's blog today. :)
Oh wow!! You really really shopped :) Congrats on the kiln, you have been wanting it for so long!
ReplyDeletewhooaaa..that is something!
ReplyDeleteI guess we wont see you in the next days too much: are you going to sleep with the kiln? ;-)
Congrats!! and I´m glad for you that it won´t take 6-8 weeks until you can pick up the kiln :)

oh my! first, congratulations on the kiln! second: I WANT TO GOT TO THAT SHOP!!! wow, it is indeed paradise!
ReplyDeletewe buy at the same place!!!! The other day I was at the Atelier where I go once a week and there I was told that there is a new groothandel going to open, more especialized just in ceramics and not far away from where Robbelien is. Amongst the ceramists I know, most aren't happy with how robbelien forgets to update and bring more stock to the shelves... dunno. Thing is, more shops won't kill us! More offer!
ReplyDeleteHope you have lots of fun!
