Bottoms are waxed, black underglaze is applied, pots are washed. Now to start dunking in clear!

My kitchen island is the perfect measuring tool, what fits on the counter will fit in the kiln.

Hope to have some lovely hot pots out of the kiln sunday morning and shipping my custom orders and trouble coffee co tumblers off on monday.

it's been a few weeks

So Hunter is growing so quickly and I've been wrangled back into making work for Trouble Coffee Company. I really like making wares for them, but I get stressed out over the smallest things.

I'm working on a bunch of 8oz to go tumblers (for espresso shots?)and then soon start up on Latte mugs and saucers.

Other happenings:

Custom order wedding plate. I probably wouldn't have taken on this project if it weren't for a friend. It's drying out slowly right now and hoping it makes it in time.

Brooke Noble sent me a tumbler the other day and in return I'm making her some whiskey mugs. Bowling Whale and Octopus. ;) (this might be one of my FAVORITE custom items ever)

Getting geared up for art walk, will probably have a bunch of whiskey cups and nesting bowls. Pics of those later!

Oh and what's a blog post without a little bit of hunter. (18 months tomorrow)
