Name suggestions for gift sign? (pottery maker)

Hey OP, it's all Ceramics, you know that!

I'd keep it simple. Don't try to come up with some catchy name that he
may not like. I'd go with: POTS by BOB. OP's suggestion is a good one.
BOB'S HAND MADE POTTERY.

I still have my old wheel and kiln in the garage along with bags and bags of
chemicals for mixing glazes. It's been a long time.

Well as it turned out I ended up talking to Bob.
He told me that he and his girlfriend wanted a sign with their cats names on it!
I used barn slate for that rough feel.
:wink:
It would have been more fun to use one of the great suggestions I got.

OK so my sister was to deliver this sign.
She insisted upon it, actually.
She took it months ago.
I never heard from Bob, but he is a bit different.
My sister calls Sunday, saying she has some bad news.
She never delivered the sign, it has been sitting in her mini van and she just came across it, broken.
I'd like to kill her.
Now I have to repaint the damn thing.
Alumalite isn't as charming as slate but at least it's not as fragile.
And Bob probably thinks I am an ungrateful tw@t.

Least your sister was honest about it, a lot of people would be so ashamed they'd sweep it under the rug/dump it in the nearest bin and be like "oh, dunno what happened to it!"

Let us know how it turns out, there's always the saying "better late than never"!

Yup I wonder if I smashed it over her head I could get it into smaller bits?
Honest it takes a lot to make me mad but the more I think about it the madder I get.
She keeps trying to call me but I am ignoring her.
And knowing my sister, even if I asked, I would not get back all the pieces.

I know what will make you feel better....

Find a brick
Paint some beautiful flowers on it.

Then go throw it through your sister's front window:clapping::ROFLMAO:

Still stewing over this.
I really don't feel like repainting it.
I have to see my sister over the weekend and I hope I don't strangle her with her oxygen cord.

Brandon, he just wanted a pic of his cats.
The one is rather old, hope the poor thing's not ceased to be by the time Bob gets his new sign!

Part 2, this one is on unbreakable barn wood.
:tongue:
Heather's ears look kind of funky though.
