Pulled handles pottery

Chris Penny Ceramics on Instagram: "Pulling handles is about knowing when to stop, when to have wet hands and when to have dry hands, and how dry the cup needs to be. It’s all about practice. I think you can get pretty comfortable applying handles in about 3 years … sorry not years I mean weeks 😂… actually it doesn’t take as long as you think. If you keep the starting lump the same each time. And attach as many handles as you can to cups you are making … say 4 handles per cup, then recycle…

Twisted Clay on Instagram: "Pulling handles from the pot is my favorite way to make handles. Before I learned to make handles this way, I did not tend to like them. Once I learned this method, I both liked the process more and I also felt the outcome was more to my liking. If you have never tried this, you should give it a try. #pottery #ceramics #handmade #clay #art #ceramic #ceramicart #stoneware #potterylove #instapottery #wheelthrown #handmadepottery #pottersofinstagram…

Pottery West / Catherine+Matt+Luna too on Instagram: "And this is how the handles are attached to the mug bodies - the tapered mugs which I shared in my last post. ‘Blanks’ are pulled, the part where the handle will be attached is scored and slipped (with clay and water), and then the handle is secured and pulled to shape. It’s fine, fiddly work and does take some time to perfect. #ceramics #pottery #potteryartstudio #keramik #clay #apotterslife #potteryhacks #potteryhandles"

Laura Crosland Ceramics on Instagram: "I thought I would try to capture the hand position that I use to pull and shape a handle. I put my hand in to the position shown in the video, I find it very useful to make the edges narrower. The thumb and forefinger pinch the edge of the handle. . . . . #pottery #studiopottery #ceramics #ceramicart #art #contemporaryceramics #wheelthrown #maker #madeincornwall #mug #wip #ceramicsuk #handlepulling #britishstudiopottery #claylife #workinprogress…

Mäe Ceramics on Instagram: "This is how I make all my handles for my cups. Years ago I used to pull them, until I kind of realized that the sharp energy to my pieces deserved a more squared handle, and I worked out this lovely efficient technique using a slab. . . . . . #pottery #ceramics #howtomakehandles #potteryvideo #instapottery #stoneware #potterywheel"

Glaze Me Pretty | Handmade Ceramics on Instagram: "There are so many ways of making handles! This is just how I do it ☺️ I roll a big lump of clay and cut into sections; I cut all the handles I'll be attaching that day. Then I pull them in groups of 5, hanging them from a table. Once those are attached to mugs, I pull the next 5 and repeat. Next reel will be how I attach the pulled handles to the mug bodies 🤓 #potterystudio #relaxingtime #satisfying #potterytechniques #potterytips #making…

Hilda Carr Pottery on Instagram: "Next up on my mug making series is handling. The mugs are firm leather-hard now so can have their handles attached. I cut my handles from slabs then soften the edges ever so slightly before attaching them. Now they all have their handles on, they're tucked up tightly under plastic so the mug and the handle can acclimatise to each (this will stop the handle from cracking away as it dries). After a day or so the plastic comes off and it'll be time for…

Cup handles are an extremely important part of a cup. They need to be comfy to hold, but also nice to look at. Josh DeWeese not only gives some great advice for pulling cup handles off the pot, but al
