Did that get your attention?? I took two classes this past week and both were with the whirlwind instructor, Tonya Davidson, from Whole Lotta Whimsy! Both classes were intensive and stuffed full of great information. One was on enameling and the other was on various textures for precious metal clay. OMG...I can't wait to try and experiment further with all that I learned!!!
Okay. What the heck were we using a vibrator for?? Getting out air bubbles of course......goodness, what were YOU thinking :) Using a vibrator helps get air bubbles out of clay veneer or even resin. I loved this idea but think its rather funny having to purchase a vibrator for art purposes ;)
The cocktail stir stick was used like a pestal...you use the ball end to crush up dried clay.....I don't have a picture of this but I'm sure you get the idea. My pictures from the Enameling class haven't been uploaded yet so I don't have anything to share for now....Tonya really made everything so user friendly and easy that I can't wait for another opportunity to work with her again.

ROFL - it certainly got my attention!
It sounds like you had a fun time & what great tips to share Linda!
Years ago I had to get something to help get air bubbles out of plaster. I opted for a hand held back massager - it just sounded easier to ask for......
I have to admit, Linda, my mind was in the gutter, but I think your use of a, ahem, massager? was far more practical than anything I had in my mind! rofl
:) Yep, you definitely win the prize for Best Blog Title of the Year! Sounds like it was a terrific class!
