Accidently found a way to dry my glazing brushes so they dry in place
and not bent.I always(unfortunately) have a few large glazed bowls
arround which have cracks and I can't sell.Someone gave me a beautiful
orchid plant when I opened my shop.It took me about 6 months to kill
this perfectily innocent plant .The plant had these wonderful porus
rocks in the bottom(my dad said lava rocks)put these rocks in the
cracked bowl and I can stand my brushes upright in it by the
handle.Brushed drain+dry in shape =happpy potter!! hope someone else can
use this tip.
