How I Make Handmade Ceramic Mug at Home: from Beginning to End - Slow and Mindful.

After months of research and failure, I finally found my signature cups design that I liked visually yet comfortable to hold. Nevertheless, the process of making this handbuilding cup is quite long (I've tried my best to cut the footage as much as possible 😅).
However, I apologize if the cup that I made in this video has a different decoration from the thumbnails because I haven't fired the one in this video. Also, the foot that I made here is slightly different from the results because I forgot to make it like that 😓 my bad. But other than that, everything's the same!
Anyway, in this video, I'll show you the in-depth process of my handmade pottery cup. From a lump of clay to a cute little cup! This may be the longest video I've done, but that's how I made the cups; slow and mindful.
Please support me by subscribe, comment, share, and like this video. It would mean a whole world to me, thank you. ❤

Hi there! I just released new pottery artworks that you can purchase on my Etsy: www.etsy.com/shop/sadurstudio# - It would mean a whole world to me if you support my small business! Thank you 💛

[@gayathrivasu7034]

I love what you said about handmade pottery being able to showcase the maker's thoughts, feelings and struggles. I've been learning pottery for a few months now and hand building is my absolute favourite. Also, a part of my morning routine is to drink coffee while watching your videos. Love the aesthetics and how it's shot.

[@meminedesign]

Love your style and your calming videos

Lovely ❤ - Thanks for sharing!

[@tdv9012]

I just love everything about this video. It’s really inspiring and it made me quite zen while watching it (I was a bit stressed when I started). I especially love your vision that it doesn’t have to be perfect and that it’s a good thing to go slow, I also love the simple design and glazes. You inspired me to to try something similar. Thank you that and for this beautiful video!

[@plushifullife2789]

Really beautiful pieces of art. The design for the decorations remind me of an afternoon sun seen through swamp canes

[@jackiegrant410]

Absolutely beautiful and calming to watch. I’ve recently joined a ceramic class, I find the teaching a bit limited as I do love to work with my hands and imagination, I love this, the originality and unique design makes it more personal and as you say, it has your soul within. ❤️🙏❤️

[@SadurStudio]

you're welcome! so how does it go? 😁

[@uwuLikesEyebrowsuwu]

I’ve always wished I could make beautiful pottery. I had to give it up after just a couple months due to a bad thumb and a large cyst on the palm of my dominant hand. Gorgeous work though. Your videos are always so relaxing yet captivating.

[@SadurStudio]

Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear that 😟 I don't know how's exactly your condition is, but have you heard of a mini pottery wheel? It's super tiny to the point you only need a few of your fingers! Thank you for watching my videos though. 💛

[@claragerda1353]

as a friend, im so proud of you...luvvvvv

[@SadurStudio]

Oho thank you ger 💖

[@girlart4687]

I wish you all the best from Canada to Indonesia :) your work is very beautiful and inspiring!!

[@SadurStudio]

Hi Eve, thank you so much for the sweet words!💛

[@samwoolever8051]

For leveling the rim of the ceramic mug instead of pinching it trying to make it even you can put a little amount of water on concrete (or a surface with that kind of gritty texture) and move the mug in a circular motion. You would have to make sure after to fix the rim where it would be sippable before you fire it in the kiln. I did this when I was making a ceramic bowl and it worked wonders!

[@tasyasdw1059]

so cool

[@SadurStudio]

Hi makaci

[@Neeha369]

Beautiful ❤ pls. Share glazing video as well. I love pottery but haven't started yet so this type of video is helpful. Hope to start my pottery journey someday😊

[@abdulraffay8378]

Beautiful work! The more I see your videos they make me not wanting the wheel. We don’t get clay here so I have processed my own so basically it is earthenware and I am finding it difficult to hold the shapes. Your work is inspiring and gives me a new task everyday will keep trying.

[@SadurStudio]

Woah that's so cool! I personally have never tried to make my own clay. :') keep up the good work, you can always experimenting with the clay recipes to make it work out!

[@mariajosebarros5094]

Preciosas 😍

[@Excel_explorer]

Thank you for the informative video, I would’ve much appreciated if you showed the glazing and firing as well

[@nancymills4084]

LemieClay: Love your mugs! Knowing how much clay you use per items would be really helpful! I know this mug you are making, the scale said 255 but what is that, I am thinking almost a pound per mug, but again knowing the weight helps all mugs be more uniform and same size! Thank you!

[@user-ko2of2gg3b]

יופי מעשיר ברעיונות ותודה על השיתוף. ישראלה

[@ghazouaz7957]

Hi! Can you make a video about the glazing process and the name of the différents colors you use ? Thank you so much for your beautiful videos! 😊

Hai Leni! Wah, semangat belajar pottery nya! Would love to be friend with you 💛

[@jessicabooth3711]

hi do you glaze them and then fire them after left to airdry ? also what is in the liquid used to bond ? wet clay?

[@user-jm8ui2bk9p]

Hi what is your glazing method ! do you put your pots in a kiln before or after your glaze ?

[@Titanette]

Can you show us your kiln and how to use it?

[@caglazey2949]

This video is amazing! What camera did you use?

[@SadurStudio]

Thank you :) It's actually an old camera 😅 It's Nikon D3100

[@cjjjj7163]

HELLO WHERE DO YOU GET THE CLAY ITSELF OR DID YOU MAKE YOUR OWN MIX

[@24gogolakers]

Is the video filmed by yourself? It's really impressive.

[@SadurStudio]

Yes, I filmed it by myself :) Thank youu

[@safaalaa3959]

that was awsome! how long does it take you to finish one mug with your hand? “like without a machine”

[@SadurStudio]

Around 1 hour for shaping, but not including the firing and glazing process 😊

Halo kak, ini djbakar yaah tapi memang tidak aku perlihatkan aja proses pembakarannya. Biar food-grade harus diglasir ya 😊

[@smitavinchurkar9196]

How do you do this. I tried atleast 10 times. I am not able to get this basic shape. I am doing pottery for the 1st time😥🤭

[@SadurStudio]

It's okay to fail! I used to be like that too at first. Try to do it more slowly :)

[@GustiAnindya37]

Hi what kind of clay that u use? Thanks

[@SadurStudio]

I use stoneware clay! Or you can watch it here for other options kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZi0knt4gZucf7M 😉

[@kintanft]

Ini keringinnya pakai firing ga ya? Dan keringinnya berapa lama?

[@SadurStudio]

Halo kak! Iya kak harus dibakar (firing), tetapi sebelum dibakar harus kering dulu yaah, biasanya makan waktu 3-7hari tergatung cuacanya kak. 😁

[@krutikothari2038]

Hi, I use stoneware clay. Thank you🥰
