Thanks

I am thinking about getting a kiln. I am curious what kind you got and if you are happy with it.

Wonderful Glazes, great results

[@luckymudpottery]

Thanks so much 😊

[@annritzlock7373]

These all look awesome!!! I really love the shamrock trinket dish, do you have an online store?

[@luckymudpottery]

Thank you so much! The goal is to open an online store within the next couple months. I'll be sure to post a video with the details when that happens.

Hi I love your platters. The shapes and styles are beautiful. Would you show how you create them starting with the clay? Thank you! ☘️

[@luckymudpottery]

Thank you so much! I will try and get a video filmed soon of the making of one.

I can NOT believe this was your first kiln load by yourself! You did amazing! Please let me know where you are putting your glaze combo information!!

[@luckymudpottery]

I have the combos for this first load listed on my FB page on each photo: facebook.com/LuckyMudPottery I don't have the second load combos up yet, but I will get them added soon.

I like the little dish for your husband’s coffee spoon. My pet peeve is my husband’s pepper grinder - when it’s just sitting there on the counter some of the pepper leaks out and it makes a huge mess! I was making some coasters and a couple turned out smaller than I wanted. But they’re the perfect size to set his pepper grinder on.

[@luckymudpottery]

Thank you! I love when you can repurpose something that doesn't turn out quite the way you want it to.

Great kiln load!

[@sandylackore8424]

[@luckymudpottery]

Thank you! I have the combos for this first load listed on my FB page on each photo: facebook.com/LuckyMudPottery

[@moreldesigns2674]

All of these pieces look great! I love the color combo of your pieces that dripped onto the cookies. I was having the same issue and after loosing so many cookies, I just added kiln wash to them. Fingers crossed that helps lol. Out of curiosity, what type of kiln did you get?

[@luckymudpottery]

Thanks! I do have some kiln wash on the cookies, but I don't think that I put it on thick enough. My wash was pretty watery when I applied it, so I probably need a couple more coats. My kiln is an L&L E23-T.

[@moreldesigns2674]

@@luckymudpottery thank you for the info! I hope you have a wonderful 4th of July!

[@micheledickey4066]

I would also love to see how you remove the cookies! I have quite a few cookies that are extremely stuck to where the glaze went over the edge of the pot and is completely sealed to the cookie!

[@luckymudpottery]

Next time I have to take one off, I will try to get a video to share. I use a Dremel with a diamond disc to cut at the spot where the glaze stuck to the cookie. Then I use a Diamond Core Tools grinding disc to get the majority of the drips and rough areas off. I finish smoothing everything out with a variety of diamond sanding pads. It's a bit of a process, but all in all it only takes an extra 5 - 15 minutes (depending on how bad the run was).

[@miekemortier6143]

Waaaauw you are verry goed! Bravo

[@dhatchellsd]

What are the glazes that you used on the bowls?

[@luckymudpottery]

The peacock bowls were: SC-9 Jaded dots AC-40 Blueberry Hill dots SW-401 Light Flux swoops SW-165 Lavender Mist x3 (over everything) and: SC-10 Teal Next Time dots SC-76 Cara-bein Blue dots SW-401 Light Flux swoops SW-150 Celadon Bloom x3 (over everything)

Put some kiln wash on your cookies.

[@luckymudpottery]

I do have two coats of kiln wash on the cookies...I think my wash is a bit too thin though. I plan on putting some more on there to see if it helps. Thanks!

[@catladyclay442]

Great kiln load!

[@luckymudpottery]

Thank you! 😊
