June Project of the Month: Coffee Mugs off the Mound
Roy Blackmer is a great potter that many of you BHC potters never get to know because he often comes late at night. Roy’s coffee cups are great. They are light, pleasing to eye and lip and they have great handles. I hope you enjoy this video and if you have any questions about making mugs post them here and either Roy, Joanne or I will get back to you. If you have some tips of your own on making mugs, feel free to post them as well. We all learn from each other!
