Great kiln opening. I love the Smokey Merlot and Textured Turquoise I will have to try that.

I loe your kiln openings videos!

[@andreanolan6004]

Thank you. I happy to hear that you enjoy!

What an awesome kiln load, as always! What a brilliant idea for the tortillas!! The planters are just beautiful!! Just an fyi. Your first minute and 50 seconds repeats itself.

Thanks Michelle, I'll take a look and see if that can be fixed.

Thanks Michelle. I was able to edit the video and remove the part that was repeated. Again, thanks for letting me know.

@@lifeinsouthsimcoecounty You’re welcome. It wasn’t a big deal but I thought I’d let you know.

Hi, Andrea! Another nice kiln opening. Can I ask?...how do you keep your trays flat while drying? Do you weight them or you are just a lucky girl?

[@andreanolan6004]

Thank you Audrey. I sew little sacks from socks with kitty litter. I use these as weights to keep the trays flat. If I remember, I'll show you at my next opening.

@andreanolan6004 Ah, OK. I thought you must have used something. I use the same. Some socks have rice because I found the litter was coming through the sock, but I don't like to use food. Maybe my litter is just a different kind. Anyway, thanks, Andrea!

When you say “merlot” do you mean Smokey merlot?

[@micheledickey4066]

Yes
