Iโ€™m so sorry for the long silence. I just wanted to give everyone an update. Iโ€™m still waiting on the fall mugs to be fired, but I promise they are coming! Iโ€™m still waiting on one batch to go through the glaze firing and those will be completed, and I have another batch thatโ€™s still waiting to go through the bisque firing, then I can glaze those and they can go through the final glaze firing. I apologize that it is taking much longer than anticipated. Unfortunately due to how long these have taken I am going to be skipping on Christmas themed mugs and Iโ€™m going to be working on Valentineโ€™s Day items. Next year Iโ€™ll get a much earlier start on things so that I can get items out before holidays. I will let yโ€™all know when the first batch is finished. I appreciate yโ€™allโ€™s patience and understanding through this learning experience, and me getting an understanding of my community studioโ€™s schedule and kiln firings. โค๏ธ

What a busy week! I spent this last week throwing the last batch of mugs on the wheel, and today I just finished trimming and attaching the last of the handles! Iโ€™ll spend this next week underglazing my little heart out on the last 17 mugs! I threw a few extra mugs in case any little mishaps happen, so in total Iโ€™ll have 28 fall mugs! I hope they all make it because this will be my biggest release so far! What a great feeling it is to step back and just appreciate whatโ€™s been done up to this point โค๏ธ

I need some spooky movies/podcasts to listen to while Iโ€™m glazing this week! Comment your favorites below! ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿง›โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ›ธ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›

Everyday when I throw a mug on the wheel I learn something new, weather it be a position the feels better to me, a different speed on the wheel for each step, how much pressure to use, how to hold the tools properly, shaping, pulling trimming, handles, attaching handles, etc. After tonightโ€™s session I just sat and admired the pieces I just finished. Itโ€™s such a greatful feeling to see where Iโ€™m at now. itโ€™s so nice to feel like Iโ€™m heading in the right direction, that this is for me, I have truly found my passion in life โค๏ธ

Just finished throwing 5 more mugs! My goal is to throw 5 more tomorrow, and my hope is that if the kiln gods and clay gods are all on my side ๐Ÿ˜‚ that Iโ€™ll have a total of 25 fall mugs for this year! I have 2 more new designs that I want to do on these next batch of mugs! Iโ€™m super excited yโ€™all! Iโ€™m having so much fun with these!

Sorry for the bad lighting on this one, I just had to show this one that I just finished! I love this one, kind of reminds me of scooby doo, scooby ghostie ๐Ÿ˜‚ Iโ€™m spending the day tomorrow finishing up the last of painting the mugs now that they are dry enough for me to work with, so that I can get these in the studio on Wednesday, and hopefully have these finished by October! ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป

A peek at another fall mug! Still have a few more finishing touches to add, but I love how this is turning out! ๐Ÿง›โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿฉธ

I just got back from the studio! Worked on the final glazing for these cute little guys! Little more than halfway done, Iโ€™m going to go back in there on Wednesday to finish up glazing these, and to drop off the fall mugs so that I can start getting those going!! ๐ŸŽ‰ what you see here is the last of my spring/summer collection, so once these are finished Iโ€™ll let yโ€™all know and I will post the link to my website ๐Ÿ˜Š This drop will hopefully happen in the next week or two โค๏ธ

Another look at the mug I posted the other day! Still a work in progress, about halfway done! ๐Ÿชฒ๐Ÿงƒ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’š
