==============================

More steps on the Sacramento Crawl mug for 2017.

Now it was time to put the name of the restaurant on the back of the mug.

I made each letter to match the ad in the phone book.

Next I lined them up on the back of the mug.

I used this tool to attach them.

Then I compared what I had done with the phone book ad again.

Then I tweaked those that looked too small by adding clay and smoothing it into place.

OK now I'm happy.

I took a look at him and then turned him over to

add Sacramento CA to the bottom.

Now I added to clay that makes the opening in the mold where the slip is poured into the cavity.

It's far from done but getting to this point is always a relaxing moment.

Cheers, Wendy
