 With tumblers I've tried different methods to make awesome cups.  For the most part they turn out awesome and look good and there's no problems.  Every so often there are problems.    This cup I originally hadn't put epoxy on it as it was my first attempt at tumblers.  My sister used it 3 months and the letters started coming off.  She asked if I could fix it.  I got it back and ended up removing all the lettering and starting over.  I then put epoxy over it to help make it last longer.  It turned out awesome but there were some problems getting it done beside the fast turn around.  The tumbler fell off the turner and the epoxy pooled at the bottom.  Put it right back on the turner and hoped for the best.  I had to do a second coat to finish it up but it turned out awesome without having to start all over.

Life has been so busy.  I've been crafting and canning but also doing so much gaming.  Animal Crossing may be just a little evil.  I had family visit and rushed through some projects to send home and save on shipping.  Sent home with family two new can cozies.  They turned out amazing and I was thrilled that I was able to get them done in such a short time.    There was also an order made by one of my favorite authors.  I had sent her a gorgeous cup posted about it on July 1st and she wanted one for a friend but in different colors.  The colors she wanted were gold, green, and black.  I think it turned out awesome. Now that canning and dehydrating is wrapping up for the seasons I should have a little bit more time to craft and blog so expect some more posts coming in the coming weeks.
