Mug Shots

These colorful mugs (along with many other pieces) were delivered to a brand new shop opening soon in South Milwaukee, WI - Serendipitous Designs. It's a cute little space in the mini-mall at 916 Milwaukee Ave. The shop will be selling all locally produced arts, crafts and gift items. I really like the shape and feel of these round mugs (they're bigger than they look) and may have to make a few for us to keep...

Fairy Garden House - Tea-for-One Set

Another tea-for-one set, this one based on a little fairy garden house I made over the summer. This was a special request Christmas gift. The teapot is functional, but will likely be added to a decorative collection.

The teapot has an added ring on the bottom to keep it from sliding off the cup, and also to give it a little lift off a tabletop.

The cup was a lot of fun with its wood grain and fairy house adornments.

The glazes are Cuerda Seca by Laguna Clay. I really like the color variation and satiny finish.
