Thanks hang10 and Wendy.

So i vended at the I Hart Rum festival here again this year (it was postponed about five times because of Covid) and not only did i want to have a new mug to offer i also figured i should finish off the sculpt i started 4/5/6 years ago, i can't even remember when it was (i did say i procrastinate), and the result is Ringo.

Sold all these at the event. 100

And made these just recently. (Brown one is sold). 101

And as the cliche goes, when it rains it pours, so even though Ringo was my newest design in about a year i also made several other new mugs/designs at the same time.

I have a particular design in mind that is going to be based on the shape of a fogcutter mug and whilst i was working on that (and still am) i realized i could use that basic shape as a base and play around with it and here's what i came up with.

These were the very first three (from L-R)...... IMG20230308170345

.....and then i made these (in no particular order - including the cats). IMG_20230426_0950428 7

One of my customers at I Hart Rum said i should make a mug with a cat on it and although i told her there were already a few designs around i remembered i had a cat mold at home and came up with these. IMG20230425162932IMG20230425162950IMG20230425163016

Also made a few of these to fill the kiln but only the one with the blue is left. I did also make a few of my older designs but they sold. 11 - missing1213 Mikey

If any of the mugs pictured above interest you then send me a message and i'll let you know what is still available.

Until the next post,

Cheers
