Good Morning everyone. I hope you gathered all your supplies for the large odity lamps class. The supplies list is in the Lab Notes messages area. The first lesson in this class has been posted. If you are having problems watching it or if you have questions please let me know. The 2nd lesson is in production now and should be ready soon.

Lesson 1 of 4 is now live for Class 01: Large Oddity Lamps and Molds. Lesson 2 of 4 will be available shortly. Print the supply list that was posted in the members area and make sure you begin this class prepared. The first lesson shows you how to make your cottle boards and check for undercuts on your mannequin heads. This may not seem important but without this foundation your project will fail. Make sure you join Members Only for these high value classes and tutorials made for sellers. If you have any questions always feel free to leave a comment and I will do my best to help.

The Casting Lab is going live MONDAY!

All Access Pass Members will get the first in-depth video tutorial on Monday (weather permitting) The Casting Lab tutorials are designed to be your step-by-step guides for each class. They will be extremely detailed so feel free to skip the parts you already know and work at your own pace. If you skip parts, please watch all the way through before asking questions, however.

If you're not an All-Access Pass Member yet consider becoming one so you can follow along with these classes. Each class will have 1, 2 or 3 tutorial style videos depending on the complexity of the project. These are not fast-paced YouTube style videos; these are classes to teach you how to do each project or technique step by step. The videos will be uploaded all at once or once the next step is ready. This will entirely depend on each project. Mold making takes time.......

The first project is a copyright free oddities lamp. These are my personal designs and not copyrighted like the rest of my work I sell. These are exclusively for the All-Access Pass Members of The Casting Lab to make, sell, gift, or just have fun with.

Look for the complete supply list when the class is posted. It will be here in Posts. Only Members will be notified when the list is posted.  

I’m excited to get started!

If you’ve joined as a paid member—thank you. Your first full class series is on the way.

This will be a 3-part deep dive into building an Oddities Lamp Set, with a clear, step-by-step approach you can follow at your own pace. You’ll be able to pause, work alongside me, and build with confidence from start to finish.

While that’s in production, I’ll be sharing weekly “Lab Notes” here in the members area—filled with pottery tips, techniques, and occasional polls. Some Lab Notes and Polls are available to free and paid members, so you’ll always have something new to learn.

Make sure to download the app and turn on notifications so you don’t miss when the class drops.

We’re just getting started.
