Production wares

I know you all think all we do is have fun here at Whynot Pottery, but we do work and work means making production pottery as well as those fun jugs from the last post.
We try hard to balance the two but sometime I feel that one takes over the other.
When that happens we have to scramble to make up for the needs of filling the kiln to make sure we have all the nooks and crannies covered.

Small batter bowls that are good for sauces and gravy too!

We were asked if we could make a shaving mug for our friend Laurie Abela to go along with a line of shaving soap she had developed for the guys.
We came up with this simple, stout mug that works very well.
Laurie has been selling them on her Etsy shop and the shaving soap is wonderful!
Mark was lucky enough to test some for her and gave it the big thumbs up.
and the name for the soap- Whisk 'er away pretty cute!
We have some listed on our shop as well but you need to go to her for the soap.
If your interested these would be great for Father's day...hint,hint!

And I have been asked so many times for berry bowls I thought- whynot!

Small berry bowls- just in time for berry season!

I use one of these batter bowls all the time.
With just Mark and I around it is perfect for whipping up some eggs, yes, local eggs with beautiful yellow yolks. But- the other thing I like about this small batter bowl is I use one for dips, salad dressing and GRAVY- you can put a spoon or dipper in the spout area and it works well to hold the spoon.
You know how some things will just sink the spoon and then you have to "dig" it out- not pleasant at all.
Plus, if the gravy starts getting cold- pop this in the microwave and warm things up.

Better get back to work!
