Looking back on the sales last year, one of our best moving product lines was the Dragonfly line. That said, we are proud to introduce our newest piece the Dragonfly Ornament. It will make a great addition to your everyday decor or your Christmas tree.

After many requests for a look behind the scenes, I was able to talk my husband into taking photos as he went through the process. So here is a pictorial of how they are made.
Dragonflies were the theme at my niece's wedding last year and they still catch my eye. They are a symbol of happiness and good luck!
ReplyDeleteI think their symbolism is one of the reasons I am drawn to them so much.
DeleteWow that's quite a process. It must take a lot of patience. Such a beautiful result though :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. The patience really comes in on the drying and cooling time. When you put a glazed piece in the kiln you never know what you'll get out.
DeleteI really like seeing the artistic process. It is amazing. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I love turning him lose with new ideas.
DeleteThat is really neat. Do you have a link in your listings? I think customers would appreciate seeing the creative process.
ReplyDeleteI need to check the Etsy TOU - if it's allowed I'll be putting it in there. Thanks for the reminder
DeleteLove the new design and getting to see the process behind it! Very cool! *Ü*
ReplyDeleteThank you. I wouldn't have thought to do it except someone from the Promo Frenzy Team suggested it.
DeleteLoved watching the pictorial! I agree that customers would love to see how the ornaments are created. It would definitely give them an appreciation for all the work that goes into making them. Love your dragonfly design!
ReplyDeleteThank you
