…and fast! As usual, I have been thinking about my work for 2010 and for once I have function on my brain. I want my work to be fun, comfortable and functional. Typically function is secondary with my expression always coming in first but I realized how important function was when I gave mugs to my family as gifts. I wanted them to enjoy their coffee in a different light…to sip and drink with comfort of a handmade mug. I watched to see how they held them or if they set them down. As we watched my baby boy open his Christmas gifts, each person held their mugs and enjoyed their coffee until they were finished. I felt good about that! I hope they realized how handmade items can really make everyday a bit more special.
I love posting photos of people using my mugs so here is a good friend of mine talking (discussing politics I’m sure) and holding one of my mugs from this years OctoberFest. Do you own a Saltwater Ceramics item? If so, please send me your photo using it.
