Workshop results transfers


Above are some results of yesterday's transfer workshop! It was such a lovely group of people
together and we had great fun cutting, applying and eating cookies. :)
The results are super too! It's all in the kiln now so cross fingers that it will all come out well!

Special beads

I've been asked to make some porcelain beads of a certain diameter. Not really easy as the porcelain schrinks when being fired. So I've been making and measuring and writing it down and hope that I will get the perfect bead diameter when they are fired. Fingers crossed! :)

Workshop transfers

Yesterday I had a few lovely ladies at my workshop transfers. They made lovely, unique tableware and besides working on their designs, they chatted the afternoon away. What a lovely way to spend the afternoon! :)

#patternsplease


On Facebook, I saw a hashtag #patternsplease by Janine from Uppercase magazine.
I got inspired to make some ceramic patterns. They are negatives from textured wallpaper and after they are fired, I can press clay onto them and get the positives. 
I love playing with textures and patterns, do you?

Facebook

About 5 years ago, I had an account on Facebook. After a while, I decided that I didn't like it anymore. I felt like it wanted to know too much about my personal life and I didn't like that, so I closed it.
Then I started organising 1m2 with my friend Annemiek. I opened a Facebook account under that name and started using it. After a while, I noticed that Facebook does have a positive effect business wise so I decided to open my personal account again. Much joy for my friends who have been trying to convince me for ages to be on Facebook but I kept holding back. Marta, you finally succeeded in the nearly impossible! ;)
I've been back on Facebook for nearly a year now and I see the effect it has on my business. A few weeks ago, I only had one participant for the workshop mould making. After making an event of it on Facebook, the course filled up within 2 hours. I think that's a sign of how powerful Facebook can be on you business. So, if you would like to add me as your friend, I'm here.
And while you're at it, don't forget to like my businesspage too please.
Looking forward to catching up with you on Facebook too! XO

Supermarketmagnets

So, they are finally ready to show you: the SUPERMARKETMAGNETS!
It has been such a fun project to work on and Anna did a terrific job on the illustrations. One is cuter then the other and I loved matching the colors together and applying the transfers.
There are 4 different color tones and 8 magnets in each of the color palettes. They hold a super strong neodymium magnet on the back and can hold lots of papers on your fridge or magnet board.
They are now available in my shop on Etsy.
 
 
Anna did a terrific job on the photographing of these supermarketmagnets don't you think?  :)
