Thanks for the great responses all...I have to get back to this here bowlie. Will start tonight...been busy moving out the kids into their new home, and prepping this old vintage travel trailer I have for a complete aluminum re-skinning (a big project for me)...so, I will be bouncing back into metal again for a minute after this bowl is done. A tiki time out if you will.

Mad Doggy, Love the Babaloon Scull! Sweet idea! Absolutely you can make a small press mold out of plaster if you want to...simple. And sure, you can add a medallion, or whatever to the bottom of a mug like GoGo did. Ideally, you would also want to be able to get your hand down in there to work the wet clay if you go that route...another option would be to just bisque the parts separate - glaze - then let the glazes join the 2 parts together in the final firing.
