* Duncan Announces Purchase of Mold Company ~

Here is an excerpt from the Duncan e-friends newsletter of June 4th:
"We are delighted (!!!) to announce that some of your favorite ceramic products have found a new home at Duncan! As of yesterday (great way to start the week!) we completed the mountains of paperwork needed to purchase Scioto(r). We are pleased and proud to welcome the excellent quality and distinctive design of Scioto molds into the Duncan family of hobby ceramic products."

* Now is the Time ~

Now is the time to start working on those Christmas projects you want to do for the coming Holiday season. It always seems to take so much longer than we anticipate to complete this sort of project, so why not get an early start this year? Don't procrastinate! To help get you started we are offering beautiful holiday colors on our sale page. See them here:

* Ceramics Insider Tip ~

Painting with EZ Strokes is like painting with watercolors. Keep your colors wet and flowing, swirl them on the background of a plate or use them as highlight on Concepts or Cover Coats underglazes. You can even use EZ Strokes to paint your entire project, then just add clear glaze over them. EZ Strokes are food safe when properly covered with a lead-free clear glaze.
For Majolica, apply EZ Strokes over unfired White Satin glaze SN352 on bisque. Or, try another color such as Ivory SN353 or even China Flesh SN354. Experiment!
Use EZ Strokes to tint your slip, most glazes, fired snow and other EZ Strokes colors.
