So I very quickly threw some bubble wrap over the top of it.

And then when he left, I lifted the bubble wrap off and it was almost dry.

It caught on the lady's hat and pulled her head off.

And I was absolutely horrified.

But thankfully, because I'd used the paper clay, I could get it back on there.

But I thought I've spent hours on this and I've ruined it in like a second.

It was just the most horrible moment ever.

But yes, it did survive.

I was going to ask, you guys must have your daily driver mugs that you use.

We've got lovely ones at home, but in the workshop, I have to say.

She's a Dolny Vestinyica, but yeah, she's from the Czech Republic.

She's lovely.

Tell me more.

One of the facts I love about the Dahlne Westinjitza is on the bottom, there is a child's fingerprint.

Now, we could say that it was made by a child, but I've got a son and I know that he comes into the workshop and goes, what's that, mum?

And gives it a prod.

And this is what I love, like having been made, it's lying drying and a child just comes up and pokes it in the bottom.

I can completely see it now as well.

Yeah.

So yeah, it's a wonderful little detail that clay gives you because other things, when they're carved, the fingerprints are not there anymore.
