keep on troublin'

had to remake all of the mugs. Oops.

I've come to the conclusion anything that can go wrong... will. But these cups are pretty rad. Cross your fingers for no more holdups. They should be done and shipped on Monday.

I made 30 mugs and put decals on them.. ha ha.... ha..... fail. My tester piece turned out well... well I did the other ones.. not so much. The iron in the decals totally burned out and you couldn't read the logo, unless you were starring at them for a little while.

so I hired a babysitter and made new mugs and decided to slip trail on the logo.

fingers. cramped. badly.

I can hardly wait till they are packaged nicely and shipped out.

the cups continue

30 cups for Trouble Coffee Company in San Francisco and 3 tests. (I should probably do tests on test tiles and not cups.. I'll learn someday)






Now I need to bisque, add some diver silhouettes, clear glaze, sand bottoms and ship the first batch off to san francisco. I'm exhausted just thinking about it.


we also found some time to get a christmas tree. :)



I also uploaded everything I have on Etsy.. 25 items. I'm so busy with trouble coffee company that I doubt I will have any time to make anything else until late January.

working during daylight

I have to send a bunch of mugs off to Trouble Coffee Company in San Francisco

So to keep on schedule I got our babysitter to watch hunter for 2 hrs between nap times. I forgot how awesome it is to work while the sun is up! Holy cow what a difference. I feel guilty for feeling this way, but I'm looking forward to preschool. I'll be able to get so much done and even get some time to teach lessons.

busy busy!

Been quite busy around here.

Hunter is getting so big and he is almost one. I may have a heart attack. 11.5 months old, where is the time going??? Slow down little one. Before baby I didn't realize how quickly time passes, each month seems to be going quicker and quicker.



I'm making lots of cups. Soon some of my work will be at Trouble Coffee Company in San Francisco. Giulietta is amazing, looks like a fantastic place and someday I'll go vist!

I have a load of coffee cups ready for the north beaches art walk this thursday! Coffee cups and winter are awesome. I have a few soup bowls too. Bowls have been selling like hot cakes.. and I only have 4 left. Oops... better start making some more.

I have a glaze fire going right now, so hopefully i'll have some nice hot pots in the morning!

Anyway, that's my ramble for now. I need to get going before my little tornado of destruction takes apart more of the house. :)
