<Janet> yikes i am late

<RubberRabb> Hi Yikes

RubberRabbit feeling quite frisky today

<JANELICIA> ALICIA WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN LATE

<cak> you just came for the political talk (deb was politicizing us)

<Scout> Is that another language for the word Late?

LiBsTeR wanted to see Alicia's clone tonight

<TheQueen> what is the topic?

<RubberRabb> aha so we DO have clones already

<JANELICIA> THAT'S ME. I'M PRETENDING TO BE ALICIA TONIGHT TO TEACH YOU ABOUT CLAYFULS

<Webfoot> I know we have snits....

<LiBsTeR> ROFL Webby

<LiBsTeR> hey Rave

RubberRabbit slaps webby profusely with the special cybertrout

<raven> heya

<JANELICIA> SO! YOUR CLASS PAGE IS AT http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

<RubberRabb> (the special cybertrout wears a party hat)

Webfoot leaps out of her latte mug to try and grab the trout!

<Scout> Boy, that trout must really be beginning to smell rotten by now.

<JANELICIA> http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

LiBsTeR slaps Scout around a bit with a large trout

<Scout> Yep, it's getting pretty ripe as it's been around for so long.

<JANELICIA> CLAYFULS ARE FREEFORM CLAY PIECES THAT HAVE TEXTURE, LIKE DESIGNS ON THEM

<LiBsTeR> lol

<JANELICIA> THEY ARE ALL DIFFERENT, REALLY NEAT THINGS

<JANELICIA> AND WHEN YOU GET THEM FROM ALICIA, THEY ARE BARE CLAY

<RubberRabb> bare naked clay?

<raven> No scout we keep it frozen

<JANELICIA> SO THIS CLASS IS THE DIFFERENT THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH THEM

<LiBsTeR> that sounds like a rock group

<Cher> lol lib

<LiBsTeR> (get it? clay- rock)

<JANELICIA> YOU CAN SEE ALICIA'S SAMPLES ON THE PAGE

<kat> lol

<JANELICIA> http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

<cak> I didn't think of it this afternoon, but they looked so familiar--then it hit me. Pottery shards from ancient civilizations

<JANELICIA> THERE ARE A LOT OF DIFFERENT WAYS YOU CAN COLOR THESE, ALICIA'S SHOWING HERE USING REINKERS TO DRIZZLE ON INK WITH

<LiBsTeR> OOOo Cak!

<raven> antiquities

<JANELICIA> LETTING THE INK FLOW INTO THE CRACKS

<JANELICIA> THEY DO LOOK LIKE POTTERY SHARDS TO ME

<JANELICIA> I MEAN, WELL, THEY ARE.

<cak> especially with the finish she puts on 'em

<JANELICIA> BUT THEY LOOK LIKE THE ARTIFACTS IN THE MUSEUMS

<cak> yes!

<JANELICIA> I THINK YOUR FIELD IS WIDE OPEN FOR DECORATING THESE

<JANELICIA> AND I LOVE HOW SHE'S DONE THIS

<Scout> we recognize them cause we were around the first time they were made, at least I was!

<JANELICIA> LOL

<cak> lol (I'd say speak for yourself, but I think I'm older than you)

<Scout> no one's older 'n me

<JANELICIA> ANYWAY, THINKING ABOUT DECORATING THESE, YOU CAN SEE ALICIA'S WHERE SHE GOT INK INTO THE CRACKS OF THE DESIGN, THEN RUBBED LUMIERE PAINT ON THE SURFACE AND GLAZED IT

<JANELICIA> ANYBODY HAVE OTHER IDEAS FOR COLORATION HERE?

<JANELICIA> http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

<JANELICIA> DON'T ALL SPEAK AT ONCE.

JANELICIA FINGERS THE PACK OF CLAYFULS SHE HAS FOR THE FIRST SUGGESTION

<vicki> how about just antiqueing it?

<cindyc> paints

<JANELICIA> (YES, A SNEAK PRIZE)

<cindyc> lumierres

<cak> lol I'm a ceramic dummy. I know how to break it (maybe that's why they looked familiar)

<Webfoot> rub-ons?

<cindyc> which i can never spell

<JANELICIA> VICKI! YOU WIN THIS PACK! AND YEAH, ANTIQUING WOULD BE COOL ON THESE

<RubberRabb> fresco inks ala Kim's site

<JANELICIA> LUMIERES TOO

<kat> ph martins

<JANELICIA> AND RUBONS!

<Scout> Just wondering if they break easy? If you make pins and go dancing, are you going to hear unusual cracking sounds?

<vicki> oooo

<cak> Yay! someone using her brain!

<JANELICIA> RUBONS WOULD BE WAY COOL, EASY TO DO, TOO

<vicki> I won what?

<deb> HEY janelicia

<JANELICIA> THEY AREN'T THAT DELICATE

<LiBsTeR> Hey Legs!

<deb> roflol

<Scout> good

<Legs> hey chicks

<RubberRabb> Hi Legs

<JANELICIA> YOU WON A PACK OF CLAYFULS, VICKI! WRITE ALICIAG@ALICIAG.COM TO CLAIM THOSE!

<cindyc> so much for my lumierres.. lol

JANELICIA HAS A FEW MORE PACKS TOO

<cak> hmm, I wonder if you could use them as the base of a UTEE pin?

<JANELICIA> YOUR LUMIERES WOULD BE WONDERFUL, CINDY (VICKI JUST SPOKE FIRST ON MY SCREEN)

<vicki> I won I won!!!!I'm so excited!!!!

<JANELICIA> WOO HOO!

<kat> or use them on top of utee

<jenmist> coud you dip in UTEE?

<cak> and good stuff too vicki

<cindyc> yay vicki!!!!

<JANELICIA> I DON'T KNOW. WOULD THEY BREAK? I DON'T KNOW. NOW i MUST TRY THIS

<cindyc> wonder how coffee would work

<jenmist> me to Janewhoever you are

<cak> I bet you could! it's fired much higher than the 300 or so degrees of molten UTEE

<RubberRabb> shouldn't think they'd break in UTEE

<JANELICIA> AND IF THEY BROKE? THEN YOU'D HAVE TWO CLAYFULS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE?

<RubberRabb> they got fired a lot higher than that

<JANELICIA> I WOULDN'T THINK THEY'D BREAK

<jenmist> I am gonna try that

<JANELICIA> USE YOUR TWEEZERS!

<deb> lol

<cak> lol

<Legs> ok, I'm always a day late and a dollar short...what is a clayful?

<Scout> What is the average size of themn?

<jenmist> ROFL

<RubberRabb> unless you cool them off by dumping them in icewater

<cak> http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

<Legs> ty

<paprpushr> ty

<JANELICIA> OH LEA, THESE COOL CLAY PIECES, THEY HAVE TEXTURE TO THEM AND ARE FREEFORM SHAPES, POTTERY SHARDS, BASICALLY

<cak> kinda like the clay equivalent of Clink-its?

<JANELICIA> LOOK AT 'EM

<Scout> Are some flat enough to use on cards? Go thru the mail?

<JANELICIA> YES!

<cindyc> i could see them being used in wind chimes

<Legs> I'm trying to....maybe in about 20 min that page will load for me <sigh>

<cak> yes! and how about mosaics?

<JANELICIA> YES, MOST WOULD BE FLAT ENOUGH TO USE ON A CARD, AND THEY WOULD GO THROUGH THE MAIL IF PACKED WITH A MINIMUM OF CARE, LIKE PUT A PIECE OF BUBBLE WRAP ON THE TOP OF IT

<cindyc> inside version

<RubberRabb> not here in Oklahoma--too windy

<JANELICIA> OR PUT IT IN A PADDED ENVY

<LuniLadi> can you drill them with a dremel? for wiring? (embellishment)

<cak> (poor Lea)

<Scout> ty

<JANELICIA> IF YOU'RE REALLY CAREFUL, DRILL THEM UNDER RUNNING WATER

<JANELICIA> AND SOME OF THEM ALREADY HAVE HOLES

<LuniLadi> 'k

<LuniLadi> ty

<LuniLadi> ooooooo neat

<Legs> <Cak,Janet says in dog years, my computer is 50 years old>

<JANELICIA> WHEN YOU BUY A PACK OF THESE, IT'S A GRAB BAG OF SHARDS

<cak> I know this is a foolish question, but have you wire-wrapped any yet Janet?

<Scout> How many in pack?

<JANELICIA> THEY SCREAMED FOR WIRE WRAPPING TO ME.

<cak> (and they go lame after about 5 years, don't they?)

<LuniLadi> doesn't Janet wire wrap everything? lol

<JANELICIA> I WIRE WRAP PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING THAT WILL HOLD STILL

<Legs> Good Lord! Those are gorgeous!!!!!

<JANELICIA> AREN'T THEY??

<Yellar> even the pharmacist?

<LuniLadi> guess the page loaded...lol

<JANELICIA> THE PHARMACIST REALLY NEEDS WIRE WRAPPING TODAY. HE'S LIVING ON BORROWED TIME AS IT IS

<jenmist> some parts of him anyway

<Legs> they look like raku...what's that? PearlEx? Lumieres?

<jenmist> did he bring the meds home

<JANELICIA> OOOO YEAH, GOOD PLAN, JEN.

<JANELICIA> HEH HEH HEH

<jenmist> hey the lady we needed

<JANELICIA> HE'S NOT HOME YET

<JANELICIA> SPARKLE!

<LuniLadi> god janet

<Scout> Jenmist, the piclture that brought to my mind, OH MY!

<jenmist> sparkle - can you dip the clayfuls in UTEE

<jenmist> ROFL

<JANELICIA> GO LOOK AT THESE CLAYFULS, THEN TELL US HOW WELL THEY'D DO DIPPED IN UTEE?

<JANELICIA> http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

<LuniLadi> we have the wire-wrapping lady...now the dipping onelol

<JANELICIA> IT'S A CLASS FULL OF EXPERTS!

<cak> I think it's the Ph Martins and Lumiere technique that's so luminescent

<JANELICIA> WE ALL HAVE OUR SPECIAL SKILLS. :)

<deb> cept mne

<deb> me

<spark-afk> lemme wake up...then I'll decide <G>

<JANELICIA> I STILL WANT TO TRY SOAKING THEM IN WATER AND FEATHERING OUT WATERCOLORS ON THEM, THEN GLAZING THEM

<phyl> oh these are gorgeous

<jenmist> hah

<jenmist> hah to deb

<spark-afk> oh, heavens yes.

<spark-afk> you can dunk those

<spark-afk> then rubnbuff 'em to bring the high spots out!

<phyl> i want a truck load

spark-afk is off to order some

<LuniLadi> how much? how many?

<JANELICIA> WOULDN'T THAT BE NEAT TOO, FEATHERING WATERCOLORS ON 'EM, THE WATERCOLORS WILL SORT OF SETTLE IN THE GROOVES SO YOU'D GET NATURALLY GROOVY LOOKING COLORATION

<cak> If you dipped in clear and impressed a rs, would you be able to see both the clay pattern and the UTEE pattern?

<sparkle> probably cak

<LuniLadi> oh cak...what an idea!!!!

<Legs> hmmmmmmm.maybe I won't see those Doc Martin's on Raven's list after all

<JANELICIA> THEY'RE FREEFORM SHAPES, WITH ODD EDGES SO EASY TO CATCH THE WIRE

<phyl> do we get one free for every four we buy?

<cak> smaller ones (and the bitz too) would make nice closures for books and boxes

<JANELICIA> ONE FREE FOR EVERY FOUR PACKS YOU BUY

<phyl> woooo hoooo

<JANELICIA> THINK ABOUT THE MOBILE/SUNCATCHERS YOU COULD MAKE WITH THESE AND THE CLINK ITS!

<cak> oh yeah!

<vicki> phyl's gonna wipe em out, before I get my free one!

<cak> if you'll excuse the crappy photo! let me look

<phyl> oh yes i am

<JANELICIA> THINK HOW THAT WOULD LOOK WITH CLAYFULS MIXED IN THERE TOO?

<raven> I wanna see

<cak> http://www.dm.net/~cak/mobile1.jpg

<JANELICIA> THERE IT IS!

<cak> (and the wire wrapping sucks too) Janet how about a remedial wire wrapping class?

<deb> WOW

<JANELICIA> IS THAT COOL OR WHAT?

<deb> I love it

<Cher> wow is right!!

<JANELICIA> I THINK YOUR WIRE WRAPPING IS GREAT.

<deb> can I have it?

<raven> REALLY neat Cak... I love that kinda thing

<deb> what's wrong with it???

<deb> cak?

<cak> It's gone--my boss's boss's Xmas present

<LiBsTeR> lol

<JANELICIA> LUCKY BOSS

<vicki> cak, that's cool!

<cak> too loose around the top one especially

<deb> I think it's great

<raven> You shoulda been in the Danglie swap I was in on ArtErratica

<deb> it's perty

<JANELICIA> I THINK IT'S PERFECT

<cak> it was *fun* and pretty quick and easy too

<JANELICIA> BUT IF EVER YOU'RE WIREWRAPPING SOMETHING AND YOU'RE NOT SATISFIED WITH THE TIGHTNESS OF THE WRAP?

<LuniLadi> tell ya what cak....it's so lousy I think you should make me one so I can take it off your hands :)

<JANELICIA> USE YOUR SQUARE NOSED PLIERS AND GIVE A LITTLE CRIMP TO THE WIRE

<raven> welcome back willow... did you get booted?

<cak> lol

<JANELICIA> YOU CAN DO IT ON THE BACK SO THE CRIMP DOESN'T SHOW

<JANELICIA> OR YOU CAN MAKE CRIMPS ON THE FRONT AND SAY IT'S PART OF THE DESIGN

<cak> I shoulda thought about that!

<willowAFK> I made to many split screens and goofed my screen up ..back now

<LuniLadi> I wouldn't want you to have to live with such a lousy thing (xo)

<cak> (my retention of knowledge sometimes, well, isn't)

<LuniLadi> but I could...I'd be brave :)

<JANELICIA> I WAS TOLD NOT LONG AGO THAT MY SIGNATURE LOOK TO MY JEWELRY PIECES IS THE JAGGY SPIKEY WAY THE WIRE GOES LIKE LIGHTNING BOLTS ACROSS THE STONE...

<JANELICIA> I DIDN'T HAVE THE NERVE TO SAY "OH THAT'S JUST WHERE I HAD TO TIGHTEN THE WIRE"

<LiBsTeR> lol

Cher learned crimping technique from Janet's wee be dazzled and uses it all the time!

<raven> That's my favorite part of wire wrap..... the lightening bolts

<vicki> never admit it was a mistake, huh?

<JANELICIA> I CAN'T REALLY WRAP WITHOUT 'EM :)

<JANELICIA> NOPE, THIS IS A PLANNED DESIGN.<G>

<raven> and it's a valid style so you was right all along!

<JANELICIA> I LOVE THE WAY IT LOOKS.

<JANELICIA> PLUS IT KEEPS MY STONES FROM FALLING OUT OF THE WIRE.<G>

<JANELICIA> LET ME GIVE AWAY ANOTHER PACK OF THESE CLAYFULS.

<Scout> The next one is always better

<JANELICIA> SO LET'S RECAP CLASS FOR ALISON

<libster> whew! Hot momma!

<Alison> k, let's.

<JANELICIA> THIS IS NOT SO MUCH A CLASS AS BRAINSTORMING DIFFERENT WAYS TO COLOR UP THESE CLAY PIECES AND DIFFERENT WAYS TO USE THEM

<JANELICIA> ALICIA'S SAMPLES AT http://www.aliciag.com/classes/clayfuls.html

<JANELICIA> ARE WITH REINKERS FIRST DRIZZLED ON THE CLAY SO IT FLOWS INTO THE GROOVES OF THE DESIGN

<JANELICIA> THEN TAKING A FINGER RUBBING LUMIERE PAINT ON THE TOP

<JANELICIA> SO YOU HAVE DUO-TONED

<JANELICIA> OR MULTI-TONED AS THE CASE MAY BE

<JANELICIA> ALICIA USED DIFFERENT COLORS, A MIX OF THEM

<JANELICIA> AND THOSE ARE GORGEOUS

<Alison> yes, they are!

<JANELICIA> I'M GONNA TRY DIPPING THESE INTO UTEE NEXT

<JANELICIA> AND ANTIQUING. I HAVE SOME OF THAT THAT WOULD BE SO COOL

<JANELICIA> AND RUBONS

<JANELICIA> I DID TRY EMBEDDING ONE OF THESE INTO POLYMER CLAY

<JANELICIA> THAT WORKED GREAT!!

<JANELICIA> I EMBEDDED IT INTO THE CLAY, BAKED IT...

<JANELICIA> THEN AFTER THE POLYCLAY WAS BAKED, i MESSED WITH THE CLAYFUL UNTIL IT WAS LOOSE AND SNEAKED IN A DROP OF SUPERGLUE, SO IT WOULDN'T FALL OUT LATER ON

<JANELICIA> BECAUSE IF IT WAS GONNA FALL OUT, IT WAS GONNA WAIT UNTIL I WAS IN PUBLIC

<JANELICIA> MY STUFF ALWAYS WAITS TO FALL APART WHEN I'M SHOWING IT OFF

<JANELICIA> OTHER IDEAS?

<phyl> lol

<LuniLadi> I'd like to just layer them, wire them and make a pin

<JANELICIA> I THINK THESE THINGS ARE JUST SO VERSATILE, YOU COULD DO ALMOST ANYTHING WITH 'EM AND IT WOULD BE COOL

<JANELICIA> OOOO YEAH

<phyl> pearl luster embossing powder?

<raven> You can wrap them in copper foil and solder a few together into an awesome brooch

<libster> I colored a flat one with Lumieres and glued onto a CD

<LuniLadi> art doll body

<JANELICIA> OH YUMMY!

<kat> I like that luni

<JANELICIA> OH YES! WHAT A GREAT DOLL BODY!

<LuniLadi> I need to get some of those brass connections from anima

<LuniLadi> cooooool art doll

<JANELICIA> YOU CAN EVEN USE THE PEARL-EX TO COLOR THEM

<JANELICIA> JUST USE THAT THEN SPRAY A SEALER ON IT

<Scout> ANIMA was in new issue of VampStamp

<raven> Or the wax rub-ons I love so much

<JANELICIA> ANIMA HAS SUCH COOL STUFF

<LuniLadi> yeah? I don't get vS

<JANELICIA> I DO LOVE THE RUB ONS, TOO

<LuniLadi> but I'm making a list from her site

<LuniLadi> I got annoyed that I actually had to stop looking at work the other day...lol

<JANELICIA> WELL, THEY SHOULDN'T BE MAKING YOU WORK THERE, YA KNOW.
