"Dragonflies are quiet popular we can put dragon flies on them that we have already made these out of the clay. There is just a lot of possibilities but a lot of people want them plan. Since it already has handles we don't need to put handles on it but if we want just a little design we can go ahead, we order these from our supply house and just makes a nice little border. Now that would be ready probably tomorrow. As you can see this is out of the green ware that it is out of the piece of clay that is dried and fired in the electric keel so it is going to take all the moisture out of that. Now if I have put it in this the original I would had to put W-D 40 on it, grease it really really good and then I will put my clay in here and it would be bigger but it will also take probably twice to 3 times as long to dry because that doesn't want to release. This releases this I have to make sure it releases I have to help it release."

on 10/8/2009 I just watched Betty Ingham from Expert Village using a stamp roller to decorate a clay platter and she says they order these rollers from a supplier they use. I have searched and searched for a roller like the one she used. It looks like the designs are a bit deeper than some I have seen and perfect for clay. So I am wondering if she or anyone that might know where to order them could please e-mail me the name of the company they come from. Also she mentions a website {www.thehairypotters} but I have not been able to connect with it for some reason. So if anyone might know of this company that carries these stamps and stamp rollers please contact me at abby112800@windstream.net. Thanks Linda Satterfield
