Creating underglaze reference tiles

[@saaros]

"so the only thing i can be disappointed with is myself" so real

[@jesuskings5424]

She’s so real for this😂

[@TheBlueBee98]

So relatable. I love it

[@Rumade]

I still have one of my underglaze references from my ceramics degree! I chose to lay them all out on a sofa that I had slipcast. It turned out to be one of my favourite pieces

[@karljiks]

sofa????

[@auxomox]

​@@karljiks same, I'm so confused

[@LovelyMelody_5696]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@auxomox maybe like a miniature sofa sculpture and they had like tiles of the reference colors that they stuck to it?

[@LilyEaton.-.]

Another tip I'd add is add a groove into your slab because some glazes when pooled look much different, so it's always nice to see what it would look like if there was texture!

[@birdietam]

That's a great tip! I'll have to do that next time

[@evrenviggiano2969]

at the ceramics school where my mom teaches they have all their colors in different jars and each jar has a swatch tied to it with what the color looks like once baked. half the swatch is matte and half is glazed so you can just look at the little tab hanging around it and know immediately. it's really really useful

[@akitoyaname7897]

Yup! Had a glaze that looked yellow and came out blue with green specks! Luckily i knew, since the pottery studio had those swatches too, otherwise it would've really thrown me off

[@birdietam]

Oh glazes can be absolutely wild! My pink glaze turns blue 😂

[@ocarinafrek]

Honestly the slight red/pink to the fox makes it endearing

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

Great idea. Mr Wedgwood did something similar to this as he was developing his own glazes and enamels. There are hundreds of small numbered pieces. It’s fascinating to see his progression with the ones he deemed successful for his requirements. You can view the collection online I believe.

[@lookingdeep900]

I always did this with new colored pencils from shading light to heavy. That way I know exactly what I was using/needing and this is a great way to use this trick!

[@amberjohnston6639]

That fox cup is the most adorable thing I have ever seen

[@Ashes719]

The last place I did pottery at had tiny sample tiles stuck to the glaze containers, blew my mind

[@peytoia]

thats what was going on in my art class too. my favorite ones were the ones that had little crystals of colors that would “bloom” out when fired. i miss that class. ive been meaning to get back into ceramic work but i dont have the money to go to a workshop to do it and i live in a studio apartment so theres NO way i could get a kiln

[@greenmissy]

That's very wise!!

[@Freiya2011]

Those pots are absolutely sweet!

[@shrutijha6668]

That is actually soooo brilliant

[@Queen-Of-Hearts144]

They are so pretty though 😊

[@Rosarossa.0_0.]

This is so cool!

[@scribbles1788]

My art teacher did a similar thing. She’s got her walls covered in tiles showing every glaze combination she has after firing and stuff

[@knightclan4]

Definitely worth subscribing to your channel

[@ShoonEmber]

this is such a great idea! thank you 🥰

[@Winter-nr6gb]

I just want to say, i just visited your online-Shop and I now died of cuteness!

[@itsonlyliz9023]

❤ love this never thought about doing it with the different types of clay ❤

[@samanvayasrivastava559]

I want all those cups ❤❤❤❤ the fox was so pretty 🤩

[@debfamilia8528]

That fox is fire cute

[@lililive1092]

Y’all are making me want to get into pottery

[@knightclan4]

Thanks for this tip

[@makadoodledoo]

I always have issues with my undergalze being streaky or too thick, but hopefully when Im out of art school and have my own stuff I wont have that issue

[@SmokieGee504]

Sooo smart Great idea

[@PrincessMeowicham]

Omg those fox cups are so cute! My daughter is neurodivergent and her favourite thing in the world is a fox! I will watch your shop diligently for foxes ヽ(･∀･)ﾉ

[@johhnycash1515]

This lady is so smart

[@makola1970]

Good idea

[@CatPot69]

Can you mix glazes to get custom colors?

[@Jenn_MHEquestrian]

Smart!

[@maimee1]

Color swatches are the best! Remove guessing.

[@tildal.]

are you swedish? i noticed the "vit lera"

[@birdietam]

Jag kommer från USA men har bott här i många år nu 😅

[@tildal.]

@@birdietam jaha! vad roligt :) jag är svensk men är nog så amerikansk man kan bli utan att bo eller vara därifrån haha hur gammal var du när du flyttade?

[@liquidgold3999]

Nawwww I want a cute foxy ^^

[@klarafyy806]

Cool

[@Gabrielrjones]

I just used amaco royal velvet underglaze which is a matte, and somehow it turned glossy even when fired to just come 6!!! It ruined my final project!😮‍💨

[@SpecialEdge]

Had a “purple” underglaze turn blue and it was heart breaking. I painted two things with it and now I really don’t wanna put the second thing in the kiln bc it’ll completely ruin it

[@yuri_nori]

Doesn't the color change after a while before glazing even after swatching 🤔

[@ChaT145]

Hi, will you restock the Luna cat mug 🥹?

[@birdietam]

Yes! Working on it 💕 I'd suggest subscribing to my newsletter to get notified of the next restock

[@sophie3869]

I didn’t realize that this isn’t standard practice, what are y’all doing?? 👀
