I got a new stencil cutter. It is like a printer but has a blade instead of a pen.
It is called a Silhouette Cameo. It is made for scrapbooking. My plan is to use it to make stencils for sandblasting. It makes all kind of cute things, like this camper van candy box. . . I am loosing my mind, I spent the morning making it. I also cut some cool stencils, skiers, bikers, snowboarders and sandblasted them into dichroic glass and made these cook pendants.
It is warmer and sunny, but still cold. Here is what looks like a crop circle on McMurry pond by the bike path. We are getting serious about moving things out of my Denver house. John is reassembling my king sized bed in our bedroom in Fort Collins.
Here it is, he did a fine job. We had to figure out what to do with the queen sized bed that was in there.We are saving it for if we ever stop traveling and move into the front bigger house on the property. So the mattress is in the living room, disguised as a shelf. John thinks it looks like a sacrificial alter. . .
Back in Denver, after picking up another load we all went out to dinner to Bon voyage Reed. He really is leaving for Maine on Monday. Katie, John, Bill, Katy, Morgan and Reed. Back in Fort Collins the next day the almost full moon rose over McMurray pond. The ice shown earlier is at the other end of the pond.
Still busy in the studio. These small pieces are sitting on molds and will be slumped into soap dishes. John and Mandy are back from Australia, we met for dinner at Coopersmith’s and heard about their travels.
The Christmas lights in Old Town Fort Collins are lovely. Mandy took this shot of John and I at dinner.
I cut these stencils on my Silhouette and tested them on luster fired onto glass. Look very good.
