    Please don’t be too casual about all this plane/helicopter activity. Maybe go inside whenever they come over – you know very well the unexplained things that happen to people

    Yes the BSBs are my favorites. Just got two on the go now, but have promised my best one to a friend. The copper pipe comes in 5.5m lengths and the price changes by the day, with copper being a ‘commodity’ strangely enough. We can use 1/2 ” pipes (a lot cheaper than 3/4″ pipes) as we made an ICB which is different from the Croft version in that there are no crystals in the pipes.The lengths were about 17euros yesterday, but sometimes they can be 14 euros, strange.

    Just to compare the difference in cost of making a CB (this one may be sold to someone who wants one) Resin 40 euros, copper + joints/caps 56 euros. Crystals – hard to say, maybe 10 euros. Beach sand – free. Metal swarf – kindly provided by nice but puzzled people in a Metal Factors. “Are you doing some kind of artwork’ Me ‘It’s hard to explain but let’s try”
    Thanks for adding the photos. Apart from making a CB, the participants also made lots of TBs with resin, swarf, added crystals, some metal coils, all looked great and people very happy. Murielle explained about her Life Pillows during lunch. Such a lovely day, after a lot of rain last night. After lunch plasterite was covered, by the students getting ‘stuck in’ straight off, making cones with shells and pine cones, and lots of small pieces were poured. A lot of powerful essences and intentions were added. And lastly Mark gave a demonstration of making an obolix. All the participants went home with lots of supplies for gifting. We all enjoyed the lunch break too, people brought food to share, bean and turmeric soup from Mark, Murielle’s delicious tomato bread, veggie lasagne from me, salad from Ann and delicious strawberries and raspberries with yoghurt from Alison.

    Great work today Sunflower, those loads sound very heavy. Love the ‘Irish’ video, so pleasant of you to add all the Irish photos.

    Good things happen when surrounded by selenite energy:

    A couple of days ago three cute little girls aged 5, 4, and 3 knocked at my door just around the time I was pouring selenite at the back – we had a little chat (as you do) the youngest one talking about seeing dragons in the clouds. Then a discussion on bloodsuckers ‘they get into your body and suck ALL the blood out of it’ I said ‘no they don’t’ ‘Oh yes they do’ :) . ‘What are you doing Jennifer? I said I’m mixing something. ‘Are you making a cake?’ No, I said ‘something different’ ‘Is it a potion? ‘Yes, I said, I’m trying to make the sky blue. Off they went, not seeming a bit surprised.

    Then last evening the cute little girls knocked on my door again. I asked them why they were knocking, they said ‘because we like you’ I went and got them some hearts I’d painted pink, told them it was to make them feel better. They were delighted. This morning in my letterbox there were three sweet little thank you ‘cards’ so touching.
    One of the mums was outside, she said her daughter was thrilled with it, had her heart in a prominent position in her bedroom. Children are so sensitve. When I get a tiny bit of free time (and get my replacement moulds) I’ll bring them in and let them make them themselves – good idea? Get the kids on the block ‘gifting’, spreading positivity, has to be good – and fun for them too. The mum likes the idea btw. :D

    NOW you tell us about the fast stirring, Sunflower, gee that would have been a big help before this – us wondering how ours were going rock hard in two minutes flat, and you nonchalantly getting on with your pouring in no hurry ;) Those blue green cones are amazingly beautiful.

    Yes I’m confused too

    Happens easily and often. It seems as though there are two types of plaster here in Ireland, I don’t know the difference really, Skimcoat is for plastering walls prior to painting, and Casting Plaster is for (as you know) making moulds or casts. But this Skimcoat stays quite grey in color, so if anyone is trying to pretty it up, may be a bit more challenging. I just noticed it said on the bag to use 13 liters of water to 25 kgs plaster, very low ratio surely.

    Nice chatting Gifter.

    Hi Gifter,
    just found out that Skimcoat is what this sort of plaster is called here, also Hard Wall Plaster, used for…. not sure – probably skimming walls. Different quality to the Fine Casting Plaster I’ve been using, and slightly cheaper. Grey colored result as opposed to creamy coloured.
    Just finished pouring about 14 kgs, into bottles, containers, ready for an attack on the town next to us. Heard the door bell ringing, 3 little girls aged 5, 4 and 2. We had a lovely chat about dragons in the sky, bloodsuckers (they get inside your body and suck ALL the blood out) I said no they don’t, they said yes they do. They said are you baking a cake, I said no I’m mixing something else, ‘Is it a potion’ says Sarah? I say, yes. Cuteness overload :|
    You should have been arrested for removing all that sand Sunflower, I’m sure it’s against the law :-) We’re lucky we’ve no helicopters here. Great work as always.

    hanks for the great collection of slightly random photos, I’ll check with my heart obliterated girlfriends if they would like their faces exposed :). Thanks too for showing the variety of different things being produced here, it’s brilliant the excitement being felt by – just a few – but hopefully soon – more. It is definitely addictive, even the workhorse pieces. That’s a great idea to pour into food containers and bag them afterwards, no need to wonder where the next bottle is coming from.Your photo with the datura and 3 green cones is beautiful.
