pulled handles, ready to be attached

scoring the mug body where the top part of the handle will be attached

deciding how big the handle will be

lower attachment site scored and slipped

adding extra clay to sculpt a more substantial connection between the handle and mug body

it takes a bit more time, but I like the finished look and it lets me get a sturdy connection for a thin handle

new mugs, ready to dry out and get crows painted on them
