I finally got to try out the new tile bats that I made in August. My broken rib is healing and I have about 75% of my throwing abilities back! Yahoo! Yesterday I made Butter Keepers for the busy season coming up. The next show is the Garlic and Arts Festival (the one craft fair I do a year). It’s a really cool happening, lots of fun, tons of people, and a great place to sell my foodie ceramics.
Here is a photo of the tile bats all neatly lined up with butter keeper tops. I was able to fit 12 in a space that I normally fit 8, because of the square tile, rather than the round bat. Here is also a sneak peek at the new butter keeper that will be up for sale soon on Etsy.




I’m going to have to try that tile bat system… I have seen it done with masonite squares in regular thin bats, but I like your method better.
Oh, thanks for helping my students!
It works great! No problem with your students. I just replied to Aaric. They write to me on my facebook wall… it’s so funny I think email does not exist for the teenagers today!
