Greetings!!
First I must say I have not given up my plans to get my ceramics business going again. It has been derailed for a short time, but by fall I hope to have things in much better shape and be organized again. Having to move by the end of August did throw a bit of a curve ball at me, but I am swinging back in the hopes of hitting a home run, LOL.
I have found a new program for designing sites that I am learning now and will be redoing the entire site. As some of you know I like messing around with web sites anyway. So once I get it all figured out, you will get to see a new site, with new lay out and colors. I will be playing with it over the next few days during this heat wave as I can not get much else done right now any way. I hope to have the basics done and up at least before I have to move my computer on August 9th. I should be able to do that.
The program actually looks easier to work once you get used to the differences in how things are done. Everything has a learning curve!! I will get to have music on the site, videos and pictures galore. I believe I will also be able to easily link this blog to my site, which I think is way cool, LOL. So look for that in the near future. I will post an update on here when the site is set up and ready to go.
I am also going to use this new program for my church's web site, which will also be completely re-done. Can't wait to get started on that as well.
The move that I am making will actually make it easier for me on the business as my kiln, molds and other equipment will be right there. Hopefully this fall I will be able to post pictures of my working shop and show you the molds, kilns, pouring equipment and my little glazing corner. I am excited about that!! I have some cleaning and organizing to do first before I take pictures though. Want it to look nice for you to see. So often ceramic shops become messy in a hurry. After all it is not exactly the cleanest medium to work with, LOL.
In the future I hope to be able to post some "how to" videos on my site. I want to have videos of glazing, firing, throwing pottery on the wheel and pouring molds. It will be a lot of fun. So I am planning that for sometime next year. I am also going to open a bisque shop on my web site where you can purchase the bisque and supplies to make the items yourself. That will be great if you have a kiln or know someone who does and can fire the items yourself. People have gotten away from ceramics as a hobby but I think it will come back in again. I guess time will tell.
Well, that is just a hint of the things I am planning this year and next. I hope I peaked your interest. :-)
Until next time,,,,,,,Blessings!
