Handles are finally attached… and my new holiday mugs are really coming together! The theme stamps worked well. Now I just need to add some colored slips… and then RUSH to get them all done in time for my HOLIDAY HOME SHOW on November 23rd & 24th! Giddy-up!

Pulled handles setting-up & stiffening-up just a bit. I want them to be firm enough to handle, not squishy, but still wet enough to alter the curves. By pulling them and looping them over in this way, I establish about 85% of the curve before even attaching! Makes it a lot easier later…

Another batch of mugs assembled… handles attached & drying in my studio!

Holiday mugs need holiday handles! So here we go…
getting ready to pull a bunch of handles the traditional old-school way.

“I swear it just jumped off my ware board!!!”
Sometimes gravity does NOT work in your favor!

It was one of my class demo mugs last night…
and it didn’t quite make it back to my studio?!

Luckily… IT’S JUST CLAY!
