I made my wife a heart bowl a couple years ago and several friends requested one. So I made a pattern and developed the process I needed to do little production runs. I make 10-15 at a time turning all the backs first. I have sold a lot of these online and at shows, always sell out. They are easy to make and when I do production run of 15 I end up having 30 minutes or less in them not including the finishing.
I made them just to draw attention at my booth and everyone that walked by had to pick one up. The problem is I don’t like making them anymore😁, it’s like production and I’m more of a one-off kind of turner.
My wife is the one who pushes me to make them, so I made 5 for the upcoming Christmas Show. Someone called that had bought one in the past and wanted one more for a friend. I met them with the 5 heart bowls for them to choose and they bought all five!
How do you get out of a funk like this!? Now I need to make a few more.
