Sanding lots of ceramic cups....

Really happy i have got a nice and big order of my "Rock" collection!!
144 for cups in espresso and cafe size....

Only one thing is heavy (not complaining at all) but just wanted to share these cups are sanded twice.
The first time is after the bics fire and the second time after the second fire - for a matt smooth lovely natural stone feeling.

It goes someting like this:
The rock collection of cups is sanded twice for a matt smoothe and natural feel.

































Sanding is a important thing for this line of tableware...Has to feel soft and natural in your hands.


































Why did i put on nailpolish anyways!! :)
So 144 x 2 = 288 cups sanding away - but i'm still smiling because they look and feel sooooo
nice when they are ready to go to there new home...
