Great video! I really appreciate you getting to the unload quickly, without 4-5 minutes of chit chat. You know your glazes and moved through your pieces at a great pace. Jessica

Hi Jane, welcome to the KZbin family. I totally under the hesitation to get in front of the camera. Nat is great at encouraging people. Love your Boo sheets. Super cute. Great unload. So many wonderful combos. Trace x

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@Tjsclaycreations thanks Trace! I, as well as my husband had been trying to talk myself into just diving in and doing my first video for many, many months now, so pleased I finally took the plunge. I love watching yours and Nat's videos and I am so happy to finally be a part of the KZbin pottery community. X

Hey Jane ohhh I wrote a huge comment n lost it!!! Subscribed ages ago but haven’t seen yr vids pop up so binging now. Love the ghosts so cute thankyou for the shoutout! U don’t seem nervous at all so glad u went for it! Love the rainbow tree that’s my fav. Gorgeous mugs love sangria too! Great unload. Nat xx

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@mudmagic407 thank you so much for watching. The rainbow tree was my fave of the Christmas trees too. I have three more kiln unloads going up tomorrow, I am a bit slack at getting the editing done in a timely manner at the moment. Hopefully I can improve on that soon. Xx

[@finklepottery704]

Great unload, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to your next video!

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@finklepottery704 oh wow! It's so lovely to have a comment from you. I watch your videos from my private channel all the time. I have your latest one in my To Watch playlist at the moment 😄 Thank you so much 😊 I have just noticed when my family watched my video back on the TV that my sound isn't great, I will try to fix that when I do my next kiln unload tonight.

[@LianaOchsner]

Nice pieces and great camera presence! Are your charms hollow?

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@LianaOchsner the little moon charms? No they are solid. Thank you so much for your kind comment 😊

Hiya fellow Australian, always nice to see Aussie content. WA is on the otherside from where I'm located in Canberra Australia. So many wonderful pieces the Christmas trees are so beautiful, Mugs and mushies too. The glaze work looks great and you mentioned that you use two coats. In saying that, everyone's coat thickness are different. So I'm assuming that you do two thick coats. Anyway......... thanks for sharing and happy potting. From a newbie clay player

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@MeandmyfireflyEZCreations thank you for watching. It's funny but I don't do thick coats at all. Mayco especially I have found only needs two coats. Some Amaco glazes I do three. I do wonder if everyone is just going with three because that has always been the done thing like it says on the bottle? Maybe two coats won't work for everyone, but it does for me ☺️

[@MeandmyfireflyEZCreations]

@@janesshoeboxstudio5829 great and saves on glazes running out too soon as well

I am also interested in being a fulltime career into this, its a nice profession, creating a small showroom if you have build up the finances for it and you can sell in small farm markets. Thank you very much. I love this work a lot.

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

It is a great career to have. Try some markets, I love them, but they are a lot of work. Thank you for your kind comment 😊

[@avermontlife]

What gauge and alloy of wire are you using at what cone? I think you said cone six. I used some I thought was made for high fire only to open the kiln to find they had slumped. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@avermontlife I can't remember the gauge of the really thick wire I used on the Boosheet balloons, I can measure the thickness for you today though. It is a nichrome wire made for high temperatures.

[@avermontlife]

@@janesshoeboxstudio5829 Thank you ever so much.

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@avermontlife I just measured, from what my shocking eyesight can tell it is about 1.4 millimetres thick. Hope that helps 😊

[@avermontlife]

@@janesshoeboxstudio5829 Thank you again. I also learned that I can try to weigh the ends of the rods down so that they do not slump. Cheers!

[@janesshoeboxstudio5829]

@avermontlife oh, you were asking about the wire holding the charms. That one is actually more like 2-3 mm I think. Just be careful you don't hang too many things from one piece. Spread them out and use three kiln posts to hold one wire if necessary. As in a kiln post, two of your glazed pieces, another kiln post, two more glazed pieces then another kiln post at the end. I hope that makes sense?

[@playingdirtywithfire]

so cute!
