Sqush-in-a-Bowl

This is Toryen (whom we call Sqush) He love's the pottery and being with Grandma & Grandpa Mecham. He is the one in a lower pic that like's to hit the pots with honey sticks. He is now 4 yrs old. See at Mecham Pottery we put everything in our bowls.

Melodies from Toryen "so dang cute"

This is our grandson Toryen Wayne Haynes. He was busy to a musical number for all the people in our booth. He was having such fun with two honey sticks banging on our pottery. I was having fun as well watching all the peoples faces as he produces his melodic tones. Well done Toryen a great show of how well our pottery stands up to all situations. To whom it may concern we will be at the Tooele rendezvous at the weekend of the 27Th of September.

What a crazy two weeks. As you all know we were up at Fort Bridger doing our largest show of the year. We did well and we were able to visit with old friends and see some of the kids. Here is a few photos of Bud trying to get a signal for the card machine. Any of you that have seen the movie RV will get a kick out of this. On or way home we blew up our transmission in the truck.

How to use a Chicken Roaster

DO NOT PREHEAT OVEN
Begin by putting 1/2 inch of water in the outside bowl. Put water and other seasonings that you wish into the center cup. Take the neck skin and pull if over the hole to the main cavity. Tuck the skin over the top to hold in the moisture and flavor.

2nd Do NOT preheat your oven. Stick your Chicken in the oven on 350' for 2 1/2 hours (More or less time as your oven requires). Start checking on your chicken at about 2 hours the first couple times you make it.

3rd Take it out and enjoy. Remember that stoneware stays hot. Be careful when you pick up your roaster even if it has been out of your oven for time, it holds heat very well.

Pitchers

These can be used for Hot or cold. You can put anything in them from Kool-aid to Gravy and Water to Ice tea.

Bowl Sets

Bowl sets can be put together anyway you want. You can get all five or the 3 small or any of them put into a set. Price's very with size's.

Picture Patterns

>Montain Horizon

>Bear and Cub

>Moose

Kitchen Ware

These are some of are kitchen item's They are shown plain and can have any design or color on them. From Moose, Bears and patterns from the 1800s.

Outside Lighting

These are some of the lights that can be put on the outside of your home and they can be any color that you want them. They are hard fired at 2300' degrees and then painted to match your home or business.

How It's Made

The 1st step to the pottery is Throwing. Bud makes EVERYTHING by hand and then paints it on the wheel. Everything is a one of a kind. Some pieces may look the same, but no 2 pieces are the same.

The 2nd step is Drying. We set it outside in the sun on good days and it takes about 2 days to dry with the glazing process. (Glaze is the glass that is put over the top of the paint)

The 3rd step is Fireing. The pottery is fired at 2300 degrees. After it is fired, it is ready to use. It can be put in your microwave, dishwasher, and oven. The paint will never fade or discolor. What you buy is what you get.
