These aren’t available all that often and the one shown in amethyst looks to be in great condition with all the parts. The one in cobalt (blue) looks a little worse for wear missing the tray and label. Oh the glass I would buy if I could 🙂

Reconstructing Lamb
Someone broke a lamb figurine that my mom brought us from Israel. So I thought I’d try my hand at putting it back together.
Ceramic figurines that have broken into relatively large sized pieces are pretty easy to reconstruct. I start by looking for pieces that obviously go together and glue them to make larger pieces.
I had to remove his fabric fleece to glue him back together so the next step was re-gluing the fleece to the ceramic.
The cracks on his face we’re pretty obvious so I decided to go ahead and try to paint them to match.
As you can see I had to improvise the section that was smashed to bits in the fall. But I still think he came out cute. What do you think?
