I've been working on a custom clay Hearthome and I was excited to take it out of the kiln today! This special Hearthome is a going to Newlyweds. It has been personalized with their last name over the door (I blurred out the name for privacy and because they haven't received it yet!) and their names and date of their wedding on the bottom. It also can be used as a bank! It has a slot on the roof and a plug in the bottom to remove their savings, hopefully when its full! So this house will soon be on its way to a home full of love and hope for the future. I've included photos of the progression of the hand built house bank made of clay, so you can see why the process can take a while. Lots of waiting for drying, then firing, then glazing, more firing...sometimes more glazing and more firing.
What a special wedding gift. Thanks to my customer for the story behind it and the idea and ordering such a special gift for her loved ones!
