It's a fun family tradition!<br />Your scupty man is wonderful. I actually like his spindly stick legs; but if standing is a problem I'd think thick clay legs should solve the problem, no? Hope so.<br />Not a clayer so no idea really. <br />good luck I know YOU will figure it out. The art faire sounds fun. And the bowl with all the creatures is very cool too!<br />and I like the story of your nephews coming over...again. ;-)Lynn Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12094038275377357886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3706571093501032722.post-14388799828667980622012-01-16T14:02:07.854-05:002012-01-16T14:02:07.854-05:00Mimmmm..oooh..you KNOW how much I adore your bowls...Mimmmm..oooh..you KNOW how much I adore your bowls!
