New Mugs!!





I've been playing with laser decals lately and here are my first results! I'm thrilled with how they turned out. The iron oxide in the toner burns into the glaze during a final low fire, so the designs are permanent. These 3 mugs are currently in my Etsy shop. I have lots more designs that I was to try, including more crop circles. Have a great day!

  1. thought i'd pop in and say hi. i'm in a mug groove right now too. i can't believe how much the clay shrinks from when i start to when i get the finished product out of the kiln. i'm actually tracking shrinkage on one so i can confirm it's not my eyes/memory playing tricks on me. the detailing on your mugs is so wonderfully detailed.

    regards
