🌿🌼 In hope of Spring and fresh starts

🌼 We've had some sunshine here today for the first time in ages! Makes me feel more optimistic 🤗

🌼 I have been making some springlike pieces lately, like this yellow and lilac mug with irises.

🌼 Also had some exciting family news so I am feeling hopeful and have things to look forward to

🌼🌷🌻 The Secret Garden

🌼 Do you have a favourite book from childhood? Mine were 'The Secret Garden' and 'A Little Princess', both by FH Burnett.

🌼 Both books, as well as being great stories, deal with the importance of friendship and the magic that can exist in everyday events and in small acts of kindness

🌼 Look for the secret inside the mug 😉

🌼🌹🌻 The Secret Garden 🌷🌻 🌼
There's a lot to be said for escaping into your favourite books or movies right now, when the world is a pretty scary place.
🌼
When I was a child I loved to escape into my favourite books - one of which was The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
🌼
It's a wonderful story of an unhappy and lonely child's transformation, through finding and tending an abandoned garden and the friendships she makes.

So I made just a few of these 'Confection' mugs - always one of my favourite designs.
🌈
They take a lot of work but I do like the end result! That's as near as I get to praising my own work! 🤣
🌈
Each one is hand painted when 'leather hard' with 4 different colour slips before I can attach the handles.
🌈
After biscuit firing they are glazed, fired again and then the transfers are applied before the third and final firing.
🌈
I will make some more after Christmas when I have more time 😀

So today we're told we're going to be in Tier 3 and life is going to carry on being very restricted for some time. It's a real drag but necessary to protect people and keep our NHS functioning.
🌈
Happily this very precious little person is 2 years old today and is completely oblivious.
🌈
I wish so much I could be there in person for her birthday with @lubeapampa and @jacknspenn
But this time will pass and we'll all be able to get together again
🌈
Bloody hell I've made myself cry and I haven't even had a celebratory glass of fizz yet 🙄😪😆

🌼🌷 The Secret Garden 🌻🌷🌼

🌼 I'm very excited to share my new Story mug design for 'The Secret Garden' by Frances Hodgson Burnett.

🌼 This was one of my favourite childhood books. It's a wonderful story of a lonely neglected child finding fulfilment, friends and happiness, via a beautiful forgotten garden.

🌼 It was difficult to decide on a quote as there were many to choose from. I might use others in the future.

🌼 This one's for Ruth 🌼

I came across this photo today of this mug design

I came across this photo today of this mug design I used to make, several years ago.
🌼
I still really like this design, but I stopped making them because they took sooo long to make!
🌼
I used 4 different colour decorating slips, each of which needed about 3 layers.
There was no profit for me because they were so time consuming!
🌼
I'm don't think I'm confident enough to ask for a price that would make them viable 🙄

Oh my god! Why did I take so long to buy a mini tripod to hold my phone ?😯🙄😂

You wouldn't believe how much time I've spent faffing around trying to prop up my phone to take videos at the angle I want!

Oh well - better late than never. Do you know that feeling though, when you think I am NOT buying another piece of equipment or taking on ANOTHER piece of software ??! Sometimes you just have to take the plunge 😂🤣

⭐ Meet the Maker Day 3 ⭐
⭐ New for Christmas ⭐

This year I'm making mugs decorated with a cute robin AND a Christmas tree. If you prefer something seasonal but not quite so christmassy, you can also have a mug with flowers in place of the tree.
⭐
Also coming up VERY soon I have a new Jane Austen design for Sense and Sensibility. Watch this space....
⭐
I also have some planters that will soon be going into my Etsy shop
⭐
Please message me if you have a favourite quote you would love to see on a mug. I may be able to help, but it will need to be copyright free.

⭐ Meet the Maker day 2 ⭐ Pivot

This year has been challenging for everyone to a greater or lesser degree.
I have been relatively ok compared to many so far, but back in March I felt very anxious and didn't make any pottery for a while.
⭐
The last few months I've got back into making my pots and now find working and having a routine again is grounding.
⭐
Many people have turned to reading as a means of escape and comfort, and I have found that my Story or quote mugs have been the most popular range this year. This is fine by me as they are my favourites 🤗
⭐
I mostly use quotations and vintage illustrations from classic novels such as Jane Austen and the Brontës. I use quotes that can be appealing even if you haven't read the book.
⭐
Sometimes I find an illustration I just have to use and write my own words 😀
