I am forever grateful for the many wonderful people that these blogs of mine have introduced me to. One such lovely human is Melissa Bridgman. She’s a potter based in Memphis, TN and thanks to Flickr and a shared love of canning, we’ve become friendly acquaintances over the last few years.

She makes some truly gorgeous pottery and recently, I bought myself one of her pieces. This little handle-less mug now lives with me and I couldn’t be more pleased with it.
