This Limited Edition mug and glaze is a collaboration with NUDITEA (www.nuditea.uk/) to go with their Christmas special Spiced Chocolate Orange tea blend. It's made in the shape and thickness of Josh and Sophie's favourite mug, with pink highlights to match their logo.
There will be a limited number of these available from both our sites very soon.

Thank you for this tutorial. I set a goal this past weekend of getting much better at throwing mugs and making good handles (rather than the funky slab built ones I’ve been doing) and your video made that possible. I have 15 really great mugs with beautiful handles drying on the rack (slowly!). So appreciate the clear guidance and demonstration.

That was amazing to watch. Cleanest, tidiest potter, EVER! I haven't ever seen using lasers to help with uniform height. I haven't ever seen the suction cup to help with dipping. I'm wondering if you had to stand there holding the dipped cup until the glazed dried. Thanks for filming this. Super excellent job.

@shelleyfrank6909 Жыл бұрын

It's one of the most rewarding hobbies I've ever had, and I've had quite a few. It's challenging and it teaches patience, but the feeling you get when you wire your first piece off the wheel, then when you trim it successfully, then when you get it back from the bisque and then when you get it from the glaze...each step, each moment, they're all full of an incredible feeling of accomplishment. It's such a worthwhile skill to learn and something I'm so glad I discovered. Happiness, for me, is usually found in a ball of clay. TLDR: Try it. You won't regret it.
