It seems that occasionally Mikey asks Zenia to place a few ‘small’ orders, and it seems that every time he asks, it is at a moment of weakness when he forgets the pain she then inflicts on the FIG chequing account. This time wasn’t any different- when he asked her to place two large small orders… one with Uroboros Glass and one with Slumpys. The Slumpys order is full of new products! And Zenia made sure to include lots of square molds (because no one likes cutting circles and squares yield less scrap). All of the molds on order are under 11” to ensure that they will fit into our most popular kiln- the Coneart B3K117.
The most fun item we are bringing in are the new Mini Pot Melts. They come in both 6” and 8” circles and comprise of a multiuse pot melt bowl and ceramic ring that the bowl sits on top of- so no more kiln posts necessary to support the bowl! You can buy the bowl and ring separately or together as a kit for a savings!
The Carolina Frit series has been very popular for us, specifically the multi colour mixes, and since our last order, Slumpys has increased the line! The colour mixes include- Bling (red, white and blue opal), Poppy Fields (cherry red, cotton candy pink and white), Wisteria (cotton candy pink, cotton candy purple, grape and clear), Purple Haze (Aventurine blue, grape and clear), Sunshine (yellow opal, orange opal, yellow transparent), Ocean (clear, dark blue and sky blue transparent), Fire (orange and red opals), Caribbean blues (turquoise. Medium blue and sky blue), Teal Thistle (teal and pastel green) and Snap Dragon (yellow opal and amber transparent). To top off the Carolina frit we brought in the new Lemon Grass, as well as the two discontinued Cotton Candy colours (pink and purple).
Some examples of what to expect will be featured in an upcoming video...
