[@nilawarriorprincess]

I purchased NerdEcrafter's kit & was having major buyer's remorse; as I'm strictly a watercolor girl. This is the perfect instructional video for my 1st steps into clay as I intend to make, a watercolor pallet. Thank you!

[@butiwantlove]

Beautiful video. Love that ball tool used on the joint of the small plate. I do just want to point out for your safety, it is a health hazard to dry sand clay. Please look into “silica dust ceramics” or “pottery clay dust” and use your own discretion. You can alternatively sand the pieces in a bowl of water so that the silica (aka clay dust) is not airborne, and thus, not harmful. I hope this information lands with love. Take care.

[@UmiCeramics]

Thank you! ♥ the ball tool is magical when it comes to making the joints! I find your comment VERY important and it is always good to repeat it and emphasize it: breathing silica is highly dangerous, it can do a lot of damage to the eyes too. I personally prefer to wear a mask and safety glasses. It's also a good habit to always ventilate the space, keep the workshop clean, especially when you spend a lot of time there, and clean the aprons regularly as well.

[@Zoomfreaky]

Thank you for that tip. Was wondering how I could do just that without too much dust in my home. And clay dust in my lungs is not something I think is very healthy for you...:)

[@gamayun1224]

Wow, thank you! I was wondering about that. I just started in a beginner ceramics class and this wasn't mentioned at all.

I love the 2nd bowl technique best but they were both great.Thank you for sharing your skills

[@dani-wg1rf]

i received a starter pottery kit as a gift but i haven't used it yet because i wasnt sure how to create a smooth or clean finish without a wheel, and that's the look i'd like to achieve. thank you for sharing your techniques, i'll definitely be refering to this and the rest of your videos!

[@aaronbennack714]

If you want a smooth surface, you should be careful about using a sponge on greenware (unfired clay) like she did w the first plate. Not saying it can't be done but you run the risk of creating a rough surface bc you can sponge away the smaller particles of clay, exposing grog (its like sand). She used sandpaper on bisque (once fired clay) thats probably the way to go IMO if smoothness is a concern. Opaque glazes can hide surface irregularities too if it happens

[@o.crafts]

I love your videos! Thank you for them. Good work! Keep up!

[@RIchardleepr]

I admire the cleanliness of your work and workshop. I congratulate you for that.

This is very true!We are going to do a ceramic plate which we have done already also you can add a little little bit of water at the the start also dont throw that ceramic line away! you can make decorations with it our ceramic plate is in the oven.Also our art teacher explained that you need to put that plate in the oven for atleast 2 days i think so.

[@anushas4282]

Beautiful process u have made mam🤗. I love it

[@NedalReads]

What if i do not have the bisque firing? Is there any alternative?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi, the bisque firing is neccesary. There is a type of clay called "polymer clay" that can be "fired" in a regular kitchen oven, but the plates won't be food safe!

[@laurannamaresca7369]

@@UmiCeramics I was thought at a ceramic class that you could skip bisque and do the single firing for a specific type of clay only tho

[@UmiCeramics]

@@laurannamaresca7369 Hi, yes, there is a technique called "single firing", you can fire bisque and glaze at the same time, It is possible, although it can be quite tricky! In my personal opinion it is an interesting option when it comes to making small decorations on some pieces

Amazing ❤

[@MC-po8cv]

Hi! Love your videos! I would recommend purchasing wax resistant and brushing it on the bottom of your pieces as it will save you some time. Tape is a great idea if you don't have access to wax resistant but if you do or can get it, its fairly affordable and a time saver.

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi there! Thanks!! ♥ Yes! Definitely wax resistant is a great option! I try to make the videos using things that everyone can find at home, such as cardboard, paper tape, scissors, and make the process as simple as possible. I remember when I was just starting to make pottery and how difficult it was for me to get all the materials and tools!

Hi! How do you make glaze? Or do you just buy glaze?

[@giuliariccobono2180]

It's so beautiful but it also seems like a long and meticulous process...how much it takes for you to complete a batch of dinnerware? Is there a faster way to create small plates/trinket dishes? I would love to start making my own ceramics 😍

[@221b-Maker-Street]

Yes, be highly skilled and throw them on a wheel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4S1goiteNqdY9k Or have a team of people, some expensive equipment and some rather handy-dandy moulds: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmK0ipirrpiVq6c Ceramics are an _art_ - they're not something you 'churn out'. The video here isn't even a particularly meticulous process - it's quite basic, really - hence the 'at home' tag. If it's just some plates for you, what's the rush, anyway?! Why not take your time and actually _enjoy_ the process... If you just want to make 'quick' trinket dishes for a quick profit, then I suggest you take a look at Jesmonite, which you can pour into moulds - a bit like resin, except it's opaque like plaster or clay.

do you sand before or after bisque firing it

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi! I bought them at "Crecer Poles & Cia". You can use acrylics to paint the ceramic bisque, but you can't glaze it after that, and will not be food safe, for decorative purposes only!

It is better to put clay to dry itself for one week or to set it on temperature of 150°C? Great video btw🥰

Hi, in my experience the slower the drying, the better. You can speed up the drying process when there is very little moisture left

Hola Mari❤ me podrías decir cuanto tiempo de cocción y a que temperatura cocinar estas piezas ? Se puede cocer en el horno de casa ?

[@UmiCeramics]

Hola! Este tipo de arcilla en particular solo puede cocerse en un horno para cerámica, debe alcanzar los 1040° de temperatura y la duración de la horneada ronda las 7 horas. Hay muchos talleres y personas que ofrecen servicio de horneada, vos llevas las piezas y ellos se ocupan de cocerlas. También existen otros tipos de arcillas que se secan al aire o en un horno de casa. Pero sus usos son diferentes y en general no son recomendadas para utilitarios. Espero que mi respuesta te sea de ayuda!

[@sumitgill6543]

Did you use the pigment over the white glaze. Is it just one coat of the pigment ? Where can one get the pigments and alkaline flux? I am new to pottery. I have tried underglazes but not very happy with it. I like the painting over the glaze method.

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi! exactly! I applied a very thin layer of pigment+alkaline flux on the white glaze. You can also paint on the "base glaze" using another glaze of a different colour. And there is a third option: a technique called "third fire", it consists in painting on the glaze (already fired) using a product called "overglaze", it requires a third firing but the result is beautiful as it allows painting with great detail. I think you can get these materials in any ceramics store. Always make sure that the flux is "alkaline", since it doesn't give off toxicity! I hope my answer can help you! Don't hesitate to ask me any questions

Why do we not glaze the top rim and base generally?? What happens if we do.

[@UmiCeramics]

Hi, it's important not to glaze the base because otherwise the pieces would stick to the kiln shelves during the firing. With respect to the top rim... I think it's just an aesthetic choice not to do it

[@muditrustagi3356]

Beautiful videos - my 2 cents, music is really good but we could appreciate the ASMR kind of ceramic videos, hearing the pots taken out, kept in etc. Like the last part, when the plate is ready, tbh i cant tell the difference on camera if its a ceramic or not. And why dont we try to speak alittle to camera, it really builds a community around this. I love your videos, these are a few something that i found missing in your video compared to others here on youtube.
