Just a totally normal and definitely not haunted mug 😌

First one is inspired by auroras and the night sky, second one by foggy forests and historical cemeteries! I love how both glaze combinations look so much!!!

Kind of devastated by how many of these mugs I lost (I only have 3/8 I originally threw 😭 it was a learning experience, 2/8 I trimmed too deep, 2/8 cracked in a way I know I can fix by doing things a bit differently, and 1 was just bad luck) but the ones I did save are cuuute

A small porcelain trinket dish depicting a painted pigeon eating a large piece of popcorn is placed on an open book. There are paper flowers and dried grass strewn around the dish.

Just realized I never shared these here! I'll be making more of the cat alcove and Blood of my enemies mugs this year for sure; the other designs are free handed so the ones I make vary with the inspiration of the moment. 🖌️🏺☕🧶

The mug is glazed in tones of mottled green blending into a translucent blue, with a little bit of transparent white at the base of the mug. A porcelain mug is held by a white hand, over a background of blurred pine branches. The mug has a slightly raised part that looks like a gothic window with "blood of my enemies" stamped on it. The top half of the mug is blood red, with drips falling down into the bottom half, which is glossy white. A porcelain mug resting on an open book.

What’s your “no one but me remembers" game?

I asked for a PS3 in 2007 entirely because I wanted to play Folklore.
The cover of the PlayStation 3 game, Folklore. It is very purple, its title is in the center of the image, and the two main characters are in the middle. On the bottom are various creepy monsters.

Got the prettiest orange paint from artsy oubliette and I was so excited I painted this before checking if my scanner would scan them properly..(they have some fluo ink and thus it doesn't haha)

Still managed to take a picture with my phone but the paints are really made to be enjoyed in person.
