  1. About little copitas/sippers for no more than 2oz of liquid- I made a cool bisqueware stamp and a plaster stamp of a logo I was going to press into the inside bottom of cups. Unfortunately they didn’t work well, as my green ware got a bit too hard for it to come out correctly. So I smoothed out the lines and you can’t tell I made the initial impressions. Now they’re out of the kiln and bisqued, so I was thinking of ways I would transfer the logo onto the inside bottoms. I thought about underglaze but didn’t know how that could work if I then glazed the whole cup- I was assuming it would cover up the logo and I want it to be bold. SO waxing? If I waxed out the logo, then glazed everything else… is that still safe to drink tequila/mezcal out of?!?! I think it would look so cool to have the logo be raw. Considering I made it in p5 porcelain mix clay and colored it chartreuse. The glaze is mayco bright orange gloss and I’d fire to cone 5. So it’d be a chartreuse bold logo at the bottom of the inside and the cup itself would be glazed orange. I attached logo in case that helps. Unless anyone else has any ideas?
  2. I am trying to make at least 30 little cups/copitas (small enough to fit a little over 2 ounces of liquid) and made plaster molds so they’d be more similar. I put the colored clay on the hump molds this morning and I still can’t seem to get them off. I left them outside for over 4 hours and they’re dryer to the touch, but still not dry enough to be able to slip the cup out! Anything I can do to speed up the process? I tried the hair dryer..
