(Yellow #1 Corning Glass Museum 8-8-09 1:30 pm to 8-9-09 11 am)
Items:
"Two thumbs up" Cheese tray (made from old soda bottle)
the mouth was too heavy and there was too much (1.5" fall from the mold I used, so I ended up breaking it :(
" Fire and Ice" Cheese tray (made from Mazza Ice Wine Bottle, Mazza Winery PA)
I'll rate this a 3/5, the lining could be more perfect.
"Trio" tray (made from 3 beer bottles fused together... will have to wait and see if any compatibility issues crop up--didnt test before firing)
So far it looks good...feedback--not to add the labels back on... but I'm not convinced. What say?
"Spa-tool" Spatula/Spoon rest (made from a Wine bottle, Johnson winery, NY)
"Green Tree" Tray (made from Wine Bottle, Mazza Winery PA)
this turned out nice with the wire-work and beads. Booked it for a wedding gift for a wonderful and FUN couple!
Using the same schedule, I did an experimental mid-fuse...(right) will have to slump that into a plate... ah well next time.
