I’m going to build one of these for my Dad. He has a hard time finding a mug he can grasp with his bent up arthritic fingers so I’ll make it with a handle he can fit his whole hand into. Thanks for all your instruction!

I especially like the indentations you made with your fingers. Thank you for showing the finished mug. So many don’t and it is frustrating.

She does such great videos. I had what felt like 100 bubbles in recycled clay when I rolled it out. It was my first time recycling clay. The next time, when I layed the very wet clay out to dry some on a plastic cutting board before wedging it, I slammed the cutting board down a number of times to force the bubbles to the surface, like what you do when you pour cake batter in pans. It really helped. Then I cut it in strips and slammed each down, one on top of the other. It was to force any bubbles out the sides. Then I wedged it. It made a big difference. I do follow how she let's her clay dry completely before soaking it and recycling it.

Love this video! I just began taking wheel classes, but wanted to learn slab work as well. Your tutorial is so helpful. I have made three mugs, so far, using your techniques. Keep the videos coming! Thank you!!

I love your way of teaching! Your tutorial is so clear yet relaxing.

Started pottery last week with little knowledge, but it has been so much fun jumping feet first into something new. Your videos have been helpful and easy to digest for someone who has never worked with clay before. Keep the videos coming! Thanks again!

It turned out so beautiful! ❤️

Hey!! Thank you for this course!! I am going to try making a drip coffee maker. I will make the conical l thingy and the jug. I will use your techniques! Thank you again for your video. Your mug came out so good!!

This is an excellent video. You are so low key and easy going and you show how to make this mug simply with a normal person approach that can be easy to relate to. Thanks for doing it!🙂🙂🙂

I am trying to make a pythagorean cup and this was very helpful. I went completely over the top trying to make it all bond perfectly because i underestimated how good it all stuck together. Thanks

A well-explained and demonstrated tutorial - thank you!

Very nicely and simply explained...thank you

I love this video, thank you for all tips and clear demo, many thanks n keep it up!!!

Thank you so much for mentioning the dog hair! ha ha I am just starting out and it was stressing me out so much! This is a great video! i cant wait to try!

Super helpful. I took a pottery workshop some months back and just ordered some supplies to try hand building on my own. Can't wait to try making this!

That makes sense to bevel the edges! I wasn't shown that but going to try it next time!

....so beautiful, thank you for the great video

Thank you very much, beautiful mug!Looking forward to your next video! Pinching something would be nice,too.Best regards ❤!

I am so glad you are back :) I am a beginner and learn so much from your vids

I knew nothing before I watched your video and the first thing I made was a cup using this technique and it's helped me so much just knowing how to begin. Brilliant tutorial. Thank you x

Love it. Gonna grind this week to make some charcoal and rebuild my clay kiln, then my goal is to make a father's day mug for, yknow, father.

Thank you as always!

You are awesome!! ❤️ Thank you❤️

I loved watching your video Pottery to the People. I love working with DAS modeling clay and clay, and I wanted to develop my learning and I found you and it was wonderful, because you teach very well and I am sure that I will be able to do things better with your videos. Thank you and much success. I loved your Instagram and I will follow you. Success always! Hug

Exellent explanation. Thanks.👌☺

This is an excellent video! Super clear instructions, and you've shown an easier method for making the base than I've been using, so thank you! :-)

Pretty!!

thats a good mug man

Fantastic! This was a super introductory video, so thorough. Thank you so much for making it. How much do you think the mug weighs?

Hmm, ceritanya bikin mug slab sendiri nih. Kayaknya asik juga ya buat coba-coba. Tapi nggak nyangka ternyata ada DIY pottery segini seru. Keren sih!

i love slip!

this looks *good*

Brilliant videos, thank you so much! How thick is the clay for the slab mug please? I'm guessing about 6mm?

omg the dog hair problem, I was always really conscious about it hahaha. glad it is not just me

Hey! I love your channel! It's so helpful for beginners and inspirational. One question, where I can find templates for sizing and cutting the right measure for making mugs? Thank You!

I couldn't find the link for making a wedging board. I love your videos, than you for doing them.

Thanks!

Excellent video, thank you for sharing! Where is the make your wedging board video link you mentioned?

Hey I'm trying to get into pottery and I'd like some starting tips and tricks and know more about pottery wheels

i'm surprized it didn't shrink at all, at least not visibly. Well done, I loved the piece and i'll be trying it. Thanks

Thanks ❤

Thank youiii

Thank you 🌹👍

Muito obrigada por compartilhar / gostaria de poder assistir em português ( Brasil )

Thank you for all. I would like to know about pottery from the beginning, that means starting from how to select the soil for pottery to producing the product. please try to inform me how to begin.

Danke für das Video 😊 ich hab deinen Account heute gefunden und freu mich schon auf die anderen Videos Ich hab eine Frage zu dem Boden der Tasse - auf der Innenseite hast du die Verbindungsstelle vom Boden zur Wand nicht verblendet, nur auf der Außenseite. Ist das innen egal/wird das von der Glasur verschlossen? Liebe Grüße

Hi, is the mug finishing is waterproof? What do you use for that

You are very golden

Can you explain when to slip for a handle and when you can skip that step? Thanks!

Good quality clay..

hi, is it possible to make a heart shaped mug with slab pottery? my first one i kinda freestyled so logically made the base first instead of the body.

So beautiful 😍 PLEASE can you show me how you glaze this cup , can we do it at home ?

can you please link the glaze used?

Can you post a link to where I can buy that clay?

I'm binge watching your videos. How come you couldn't go to your slip bucket and take out a couple ounces for slip?

Super, helpful as always! Danke!! Oh yeah, those dog/cat hairs... I gave up aswell :P

oh my GOD this video was so good it gave me those funny stomach butterflies at one point when you cut to the mitered 45 knife cut, I can't wait to try this. edit: Trying to limit myself to one question... what did you glaze it with? I have some grey natural clay I collected that seems to pit fire buff or yellow but I was hoping to put something simple and natural on it next time to get something wild looking like yours

Very simple instructions. Great video. I am a beginner. What clay do I ask for at the store?

Hi :) i love your channel só much! It has been my company this quarantine

Hi Mia, your videos are great and very useful! Well done! :) I have a question, is it necessary to wedge the fresh clay which has just been unpacked? I usually do but I know people doesn't, so I was wandering. Thanks!

Silly question but do you not still need to wedge when rolling out a slab? (I know you said to pop the bubbles, but I thought it was a necessity to wedge clay before use. Does the compression of the roller stop the need for this?)

What kind of clay does she use?

What Are you rolling on?

The clay from Carl Jager? ;)

Oh cool, you're German? I've just started learning german. Also idk why this video showed up in my feed. I've never done anything pottery related buy I guess I might now. Would it be fine if I just used the clay down at the stream, if you know?

Could you show me how to blend coils as mine always end up having different thicknesses.

What do you coat or seal it with thats food/beverage safe? Thank you!

what name of this clay?

what board are you working on ? Is it plywood or mdf?

What material do you put so that we can drink from a ceramic cup

hello, may i ask how thick is the slab for the mug? im trying to make a mug but im afraid that the mug is to heavy for the handle

Aha! Found your answer in another comment, 5mm, thanks!

சூப்பர்

I use my ruler as a square, but it's worse than eyeballing usually.

Has anyone told you , you look like Breda from the last kingdom ☺️

Start of the video: "Going to make this tiny little mug" 15 minutes later: "This is starting to be a very beefy mug"

It's not a great idea to keep dry bits of clay for making slip as breathing in clay dust can cause silicosis. Instead, make a batch of slip and keep it in a slip trailing bottle or just a tub like an old yoghurt pot. This keeps it wet so no danger from clay dust. I have slip that I made almost 2 years a go in a squeezey bottle and it's still usable immediately without any extra mixing.

Definitely need to show wedging or at least mention it.

lockdown...lol.

Not another mug!!!! How about a jug or pitcher????

Sorry but bad advice not to wedge. If you miss a bubble your pot will explode. Yeah? Take one minute and wedge first.
