Steaming Cup of Tea

Handle on the side, saucer underneath, and a little wisp of steam rising up — this teacup is an absolute classic from my craft afternoons with the kids! Start at the top rim to lock in the width, then work your way down toward the base, which narrows in slightly. Add the handle last: it only touches the cup body at one point, so handle the finished piece gently before ironing so it doesn’t pop off. The saucer builds up separately just underneath. A tip from Léa: if you’re just starting out, iron the cup and the saucer separately — it’s much easier to manage. Prop it on a kitchen shelf or turn it into a fridge magnet for a sweet handmade, girly touch!
