Celtic cross mold done

The Celtic cross mold is done and drying. The first tiles should be in production next week, finally!

New Celtic cross carving in progress

Here's my latest carving in progress, an 8x8 Celtic cross tile. I'm not exactly churnning them there carvings out at a terrific speed lately. This one will probably be finished this weekend, unless the grandkids come over... I hope I don't get it finished this weekend : )  A 6x6 green man next.

New ceramic tile glaze color

I love this new glaze color I've developed,  and it's not finickety. Dependable glazes are sooo nice. I've done it here on our 8 x 8 tree top tile, but it looks really great on plain tiles as well.

How to make your own ceramic tile grout

I found this recipe for making your own tile grout, I'd be interested to know if anyones tried it and what they think. Mix 2 parts dry clean sand with 1 part portland cement. Add this to water to form a slow damp curing grout.

Finally finished carving the 8x8 Celtic trinity tile, now it's Johns turn to take over and make a mold of it. Meanwhile I'll be starting on another 8x8 carving, a much requested  Celtic cross tile. Now that our big birthday month is almost over with all it's ensuing trips to town I should be able to get this one done a little faster.
