Hmmmmm....... Now you've got the ideas floating in my head. I have made
beads, buttons and earrings for naked raku. I will need a raku bowl in
which to put them when I do the firing seeing as to how I'm not wild
about the idea of chasing little raku pieces all around the courtyard
where the raku kiln is. I was considering making coils, twisting them
into interesting shapes, and putting them inside of a bowl to get a
bowl shape. Pea gravel. Hmmmm...... little bumpies in my bowl. This
could get interesting. I plan on putting terra sig on the bowl (as well
as the other naked raku goodies) and burnishing it. I think the little
bumpies could be quite interesting for the inside of the bowl.
Thanks.
PS - I've also had the fun of having dried beans sprout in clay. Plays
havoc with tiles.
