Hey Jeanette I know this is an old vid so yr prob all over it now but I did a vid on bubbles. Couple of tips. Use underglaze as stroke n coats can move. Bubble at bisque not greenware it works much better. Then clear over when dry. Nat xx

I'm sure no one noticed did they LMAO! Since this disaster I started using Silica sand and ive not had a crack since :) I think I use too much sand, but its working at least! Leaf plates were so easy to make! Just used Rhubarb leaves out the garden and impressed into a slab of clay. One of the easiest projects I've done, works with a variety of leaves too, just need to be careful that the stem is not too deep.

Those mystery chips mugs r gorgeous I love them! I’m keeping more chips now lol. Do u sort by tone is that why they r so blue? Which I love! Wow that’s some impressive drippage!! Impressive!!

@FarForestCeramics Ай бұрын
Sorry for delay in replying, been away for a couple of weeks. I don't try to add suspense I promise, its just a usual potters mind before opening the kiln isnt it lol. Would love to hear how you got on with your new spectrum glazes, I've not tried any of those yet. I dont sort my chips by tones, and I'm always intrigued why there is o much blue in them, as I use a complete blend of colours. I'm guessing the colours may change as I progress, I just have such a big tub that might be a while! I save all chips automatically! The only thing I do is have 3-4 pots of water to wash my brushes in, and sort them by colour tones (of the colour of the glaze before firing) not sure if that has any impact? May have to go in hubbys garage and see if he has an angle grinder I can use for my shelves.... :) Thanks for the comments and feedback, always appreciated xx

I can’t believe that you only got reallly drippy glaze on low fire pots!!! I’ve accidentally done this and the pot melted into a puddle!! They look so beautiful after you spent all that time grinding them but please know these can be really brittle! I don’t want to be a downer but just be careful with them. Did you use the same glaze combo on them? They all look sooo beautiful!! My favorites are the yellow with the glaze chips. My chips always seem to be yellow too.

The low fire clay was the brown ovals. All the mugs were in Stoneware. I just glazed too heavy/low down on the green mugs sadly.

Jeanette---So, you think the odds are stacked against the beginner. Au contraire---if that were true, I'd be home free and NEVER have to say 5 Hail Mary's before I opened the kiln. No matter how long you've been playing with clay, kiln disasters happen! So, grin and bear it. I will say, I have had some of the most incredible re-fire results. Of course, they're one of a kind---but saved! As to the mug sculptures you now have--- mine make it to the dump and I never think of them again. The time required to rehabilitate them isn't worth it. Just look to the next day and not the day before! Keep going. Good luck.
