🌿Shop Update!🌿 New yarn bowls and mugs: www.nymla.se/shop I'm excited to show you what I've been making lately! The red and black clays are baaack in town and I've been figuring out how to work with them and how to make them thrive and live their best lives. Turns out the clay really wanted me to coil them into these yarn bowls - and as usual - pinching mugs! I hope you like the results :} So let all your tea drinkers, knitters and yarn crafter friends know in time for a cozy autumn 😄 I would very much appreciate if you want to share my shop or my work to help me reach those who may be interested 🙏Thank you all! 💚

My son, he is very squished

More pictures + his brother Snom + ramble under the cut

Made this charjabug using the same pinchpot technique as the Snom in these pictures. He is a little flat but that's okay I think. He will have a name of Pancake.

The Snom (unnamed) is from 2020, Pancake is from this year. Had to wait a month before he got fired and I could pick him up. Not sure when I'll get the opportunity to do something like this again, but when I do, I'd like to make a Dudunsparce next, since the shapes are a little more complex and I think it would be fun. I've also considered trying out air dry clay, even though it won't give the same smooth look to it

Week 3

i decided to paint the pinchpot/ box over glazing to get that childish effect so i very messily painted pretty much just throwing paint at it like a child would. i do think its a little ugly but did fit what i wanted to do with it. i plan to maybe make little baby teeth or trinkets for inside it in sculpture

Today was a really nice day. I am not feeling great right now but it's not clouding how nice of a day I had. I am just looking forward to sleep now.

I didn't sleep amazing. I went to sleep with a heating pad and woke up a bunch from being the wrong temperature or just having weird body feelings. I don't remember James leaving for work. I would sleep until 830. And laid in bed for a bit. But I had things to do.

I set an alarm for 1145 and went to get dressed. I figured if I wasn't paying attention I would know with the alarm when it was time to get ready to go. Because my big plan was to organize the studio closet.

I made the bed first. Then remembered James made me an omelet before they left for work because they love me so much. I had my nice breakfast in the kitchen. Was slightly disappointed when I realized our soda stream needed new CO2. So my soda was mostly flat. But whatever.

I jumped into my organization after that. The biggest goal today was to clean the closet enough to get all my coats in there again so I could take down the garment rack in the studio. And it went so well! I had to move a lot of stuff. Shift things and reorganize our summer shelf where our kayak and inner tubes are. I hung up our lifejackets and was able to get all the coats and sweaters up and felt amazing.

In sorting in there I also moved out the wire rack that I had in there and put it in the living room to decide on later. I shifted my other wire rack to the place the clothing rack was and it's so much better layout. It actually lets me get to my printmaking table. And I would really like to start doing more prints. I have an idea possibly and I would really like to start playing around with that soon.

I had to pull out guest bedding bag down from James's shelf so I also just made their shelf a little more neat. And I decided that we need a skinny shelf for their bobble heads because they are hard to keep on the shelf in there. Taking up a bunch of space but not looking amazing in a group. A project for another day. I would take all of our Lego pokémon to put in the new wall case I hung like a month ago. And it's looking good! Feels more put together.

I would take a moment to put some clothes in storage and pull some others out. Lots of velvets and thicker fabrics. I made outfits for the week. I was doing really good.

I took a cereal break. And then jumped into moving the furniture outside of the kitchen to make space for the other wire rack and moved the cookbooks to that. It really makes the hallway outside of the kitchen look really finished.

I had a few more things to put away in the studio. I hugged on sweetp. I ate some strawberries. It was a really nice morning.

My alarm went off and I got ready to go. Put on my shoes and got my bag and was on the road by noon.

I drove to amazing glaze to get me and Celia's projects. I was so excited to see them and they look amazing. We had trouble finding Celia's but we did and the girl who worked there said they both looked awesome. She wrapped them up for me and I headed out.

I got to awah and it was weird at first. Firstly there was a ton of food out? Not stale so it was not there lon. And then there were backpacks and jackets and sweaters super super strange. We would clean it up but it was annoying. Me and Naomi packed all the food in ziplock bags so it wouldn't become garbage. We would learn that it was because there was a teen leadership program this morning but it was still really strange because like. We use this space every week. Don't leave it a big mess.

The class was really fun though. Doing clay was a blast and it was fun explaining pinchpots to everyone. Some people's ghosts worked better then others. Some people didn't make ghosts and made pumpkins and other things. But it was fun! I enjoyed talking to Naomi. Mary Ellen had to leave basically right away because she was going to the opera. I hope she has the best time.

I had a bagel I was eating while we worked with the clay. I absolutely ate clay. But my blood sugar never went super low like it does every week. So that was nice. And I really just enjoyed chatting with my students and their parents and cares. It was a really nice day.

We finished up and cleaned up. Another awah staff member came in to work on a mural so we didn't need to alarm the building. So I was able to get out of there really quickly.

Callie let me know she would head to my apartment at 320. And so I went home and cleaned up. And then Charlotte was texting me that her and Margot were down stairs. I had just lit an candle so the apartment smelled really nice and with it being so organized I felt good getting to show it off.

It was nice sitting with them and giving the tour. Sweetp was being mostly nice. And then Callie was there!!

The main reason Callie was coming over was because I had given her a frog plush a few weeks ago and she somehow lost him! And apparently she loves this frog I gave her and holds him and squeezes him all the time. So she has been really sad. And now I was going to make her a new one as close to the original as I could.

Sadly I did not have the same fabric. So Callie picked a new one. Margot and Charlotte would join us in the studio. And it was fun going through the steps. First we made the very rectangular torso. Then sewed and stuffed a d put eyes on. I need to get more medium size eyes. I only have large and small right now. But we found one good set. Next was legs and that took more fussing. Width and length and placement. But it was fun.

They were all talking about tarot so I brought out the two major arcana sets I drew a few years ago. I really think that might be my next big project. Digitizing the bear deck. We will have to see.

We finished the frog pretty quickly! And Callie says he's perfect. His tentative name is pjj, and we love him for being so rectangular and also that he can sit up on his own.

Margot and Charlotte would have to leave soon. Margot wanted to buy some stickers so we ran down to the car. And she got two stickers and a bear. I really appreciate her supporting me and my work. She's awesome.

They would leave but Callie would stay. And we talked about the drama in her life. It was really nice just hanging out together. Even if Sweetp was making my allergies go crazy.

She would stay for a while. Leaving around 530. I promised her to take an allergy pill and feel better quick.

It would ebb and flow though. I had things I wanted to do. I worked at my desk for a bit. James had gotten home while we were sewing but had been doing a fantasy draft so they were in the other room. But now they were here and making us spaghetti.

After we ate I started working on a cut and sew devil costume. It would take me a good hour and a half to sew the whole thing but I really only like the hood. I think it's so cute. And it was fun to make something new! It's great.

I still wasn't feeling amazing though. A combination of Sweetp fur and dust and sitting on the ground cutting fabric I'm sure. I would go and take a shower and washed my hair. I still wasn't feeling great but it helped a little.

Heather would text me that her brother is offering me his RV for free. It needs work but if Alexi says I can keep it at camp for a while I might have an RV?? What even is my life sometimes??

So that's a fun way to end the day. Now I am in bed. And very much ready to sleep. I hope this small headache goes away soon. And I can sleep easy.

And I hope you can too. We have a busy day tomorrow. With possible walk in Drs appointment and my meeting with creative alliance and maybe we'll go to the zoo to ride the train?? Who knows. But I hope it's a nice day.

Sleep well everyone. Be safe and wash your hands.
