You all know how much I love handmade, being as though my whole career revolves around it. And you may also know that I have a little thing for vintage as well. So what happens when you combine the two?
Well I fall in love, that’s what happens.
..with these handmade slipcast ceramics by McCheek’s Mayhem. Each piece is made by Carole Smith using plaster molds and a few vintage ones as well. Then they go through three firings in a kiln. Followed by a glazing and then finally, the ceramic decals, which bring each piece to life in my opinion, are applied. Its a long process, but I gotta say, I am lovin’ the end results. Especially this super dooper cake stand!
