Select the handle and go to Object > Path > Offset Path, setting the Offset value to -20 px in order to create a smaller shape inside. Now we can use the Direct Selection Tool (A) and the Live Corners feature to make the handle rounded by pulling the circle markers. Head to the Align panel and click Vertical Align Top to align both shapes to the top of the cup. Select both the cup and the rectangle and click the cup once again to make it a Key Object (you will see a thick selection). Make a 130×80 px shape using the Rectangle Tool (M). Make the saucer a bit darker to make the shapes clearly visible. Use the Eraser Tool (Shift-E) to delete the top part of the saucer and attach it to the cup. Take the Rounded Rectangle Tool and make a thin stripe of 175×20 px size for the saucer. Do the same for the bottom of the shape, erasing a small part to make the bottom of the cup flat.Įxtend the shape up a bit to make the cup taller. Take the Eraser Tool (Shift-E), hold Alt and erase the top half of the circle. Use the Ellipse Tool (L) to make a 275×275 px shape. Let’s start shaping our cup from the circle.
