This mug is shaping up to be a sturdy one. I’ve been thickening my handles lately so they sit more comfortably in the hand. I realized the mugs I reach for most, made by others, tend to have a certain softness and girth to the handle, so that’s the direction I’m following.
It’s all small adjustments over time, the kind that add up over decades. The goal is a pot that feels special to its owner, but not so delicately precious that it ends up sitting untouched on a shelf. #pottery #beautility

I love everything about these sentiments about mug-making!

@potterybyosa When will your mugs be ready for sale? I'd like to get one for my wife. I know she'd love it.

@RegGuy Oh, that’s so sweet! I’m shooting for mid-April. I use my email list to let people know when I have new pottery for sale because I prefer not to be overly sales-y on here.

@potterybyosa OK, I'll sign up then, thanks! I agree with not being too sales-oriented here, but, hey your stuff if lovely.

@potterybyosa looks beautiful, I love the texture. I have the hardest time with pulling a good handle...

@potterybyosa Lovely!!
I definitely prefer a sturdy handle. I hate worrying if my mug is gonna break, I like the solid feel of it.

@camless It takes lots of repetition, however there are so many ways to make a handle besides pulling. Maybe pulling is not for you. There are infinite ways to work with clay.

@RegGuy thanks so much! And I send emails pretty sporadically. At most, twice a month, but typically just once every month or two.
