How I made rainbow glaze speckles

[@TheBrattyGamer]

As a black woman from the south i really appreciate this video :( my mind has been running 7000 miles a minute worried about my safety and rights as a human. Thank you so much you’ve helped me calm my brain down.

[@csage04]

this is a totally normal video but the title speaks volumes. for some of us, all we have left is the ability to create art because that seems to be the one thing they can’t take.

[@rejamrejam]

I'm a digital artist and have been professionally for an decade. They've already taken that from us with the image generators.

[@reloadfast]

The world needs this today. Thank you.

[@ubiquitousLeees]

I definitely do. 😭

[@sharonmiller758]

​@@ubiquitousLeees Me, too. 😢

[@ubiquitousLeees]

@ hi, friend. Remember that you’re not alone, and to take care of yourself today. Drink some water, go for a walk, do something you love. Sending you hugs if you like them, otherwise just affirmations of love. I’m telling this to myself too, so I hope this isn’t preachy! Solidarity and kindness to you. 🖤

[@laura91939597]

Thank you 😢💔

[@kkoal1]

It looks like a jawbreaker !!

[@PotterytothePeople]

omg you’re right! 😂

[@lootownica]

I wanted to say it 😆

[@l.c.rayner]

Thank you. I went to bed in tears and woke up in tears. Really appreciate your kindness.

[@vickiatkins9853]

Thank you from a Canadian watcher. Hard day today, even here. ❤

[@PsychGal1980]

It feels like we’re being pulled along in the undertow of gillead. Reading that back, it sounds so dang dramatic… but it does feel that way, as a Canadian.

[@sharonmiller758]

​@@PsychGal1980It feels even worse in the States. 😢

[@StephaniesPonytail]

Also a Canadian - and I agree. Really appreciate this video today :)

[@VeginMatt]

@@PsychGal1980 as a fellow Canadian who was in Los Angeles for a large chunk of 2017, and remember the fear in the confusing days when the border was closed, I don't think you're being dramatic at all. I've been having a surreal anxiety attack all morning.

[@VillalonaCreations]

Thank you for your sympathy. US citizen and potter here, absolutely devastated about the election results. I really love your result, it turned out beautiful! I still use commercial glazes (still new, I am working on learning glaze formulation) and I wonder if this technique could be used to make Amaco oatmeal sprinkles, since oatmeal has such interesting effects on certain base glazes. I think I might give it a try. lol

[@PotterytothePeople]

try it!! And report back if you can :)

[@lyd_the_kid_3955]

I almost failed to realize that this is what I needed today, bless💜

[@glittermytimbers]

On a day when it’s hard to even know what I need, I appreciate this showing up on my feed and showing me at least one small way to help me feel more connected and grounded. Art is so important to the soul! ❤❤

[@jacyoxendine6165]

I do this technique all the time. I make long straight lines of the glaze on wax paper, once it’s dry you just have to life the wax paper and the chunks crumple on their own. Much easier!!! Love the video!

[@jenndoesstuff]

I just want to say I really appreciate your kindness. This doesn't affect you really at all living in Europe, but you're being really sweet to all the sad Americans (of which I am one) and it's very much appreciated. I will now enjoy some pretty rainbow art! It's so satisfying!

[@PotterytothePeople]

unfortunately US politics does affect the whole world. We are all affected by it. 🥲

[@SofieKingdom]

I can't stand touching unglazed ceramics, but I could watch you do this all day!

[@ubiquitousLeees]

You’re fantastic. Thank you for the huge smile! Oh my gosh I caught myself ear to ear as you were opening the kiln, and I sent some heart bubbles and gratitude thoughts out your way. Thank you for being so thoughtful and generous. Your heart is special.

[@PotterytothePeople]

thank you for your kind words! 🥰

[@star.gir1]

that reveal! was feeling so down this morning. thank you mia for gracing my screen.

[@PotterytothePeople]

an honor ❤️

[@Lamefoureyes]

If you're interested in filtering the air in your studio, there's a DIY air filter called a corsi-rosenthal box that can be made with a few furnace filters, a box fan, and some cardboard. They work really well for airborne particulates like dust or smoke. You can make even smaller versions from PC fans and the same filters, and they're quite quiet and really clean a lot of air.

[@cocdcy]

Second this! The PC fans are usually much quieter than a box fan (since PC people care about quieter fans, box fans not so much)

[@rachelkerns86]

Today I learned that you can put glaze in a bisque fire. I would’ve never thought that it wouldn’t have turned into a puddle of glass.

[@beaulanier5132]

Thank you man, as someone in America I needed this.

[@georgethecat5150]

Wait why is everyone so shook about this 😭😭😭 a different president isn’t the end of the USA what 😭😭

[@pendlera2959]

@@georgethecat5150 Your flippancy is not appreciated. Republicans won all of the branches of federal government. There will be no moderating influence from Democrats, and the Republicans will take full advantage of that. Republicans support large businesses over absolutely everything. They don't care about the environment, reproductive rights, privacy, job site safety, labor rights, racial equality, gender equality, access to healthcare, safe drinking water, science based medicine, effective criminal justice, high quality and reasonably priced education, or anything that benefits the common man. They talk a big game about helping blue collar workers, but all of their policies boil down to letting big businesses and wealthy people take advantage over everyone else. We've lost a lot in this election. And that's the assuming that Project 2025 (google it) doesn't come into play.

[@stillnotstill]

​@@georgethecat5150 you should perhaps have been listening closer as to why people are "shook"

[@ShanShan-kw9hi]

You need this glaze as it’s own collection on different items. This is amazzzing

[@mostlyghostey]

"Bowls are hard." Is the thing you have said that I resonate with most. I can throw bottles, and mugs, and pots all day long, but give me a bowl and it will become a plate within minutes.

[@impmillie9470]

Needed this one today, and for the next 4 years...

[@potatopigeon3810]

A fruity rainbow bowl is just what I needed thank you T>T Also as a pottery student thank you for saying bowls are hard I’ve made like dozen in the last two or so months and I’m only just now getting them looking actually good

[@Saratonnin]

that piece is gorgeous!! It reminds me of the colorful sprinkles on cupcakes XD

[@DaniMakes]

it is giving giant jawbreaker. I love it.

[@considerthehumbleworm]

Pottery to the People!

[@bartoscar]

I'm probably not the only one here who is not here primarily to learn-you are just such an engaging and delightful person that I became a subscriber.

[@susanbastian2851]

Love this so much! Great job! Thank you for the gift of beauty and joy on a day that seems so dark and scary.

[@PotterytothePeople]

❤️❤️❤️

[@geneard639]

This reminds me of something I saw back in the 60s. Its a classic to me.

[@felicitycrowe6971]

Ooooh! More glazing like this, please!!!

[@SunlightTaylor]

I started watching you recently, I don't do pottery, but I like watching it ❤ Hello from Brazil to you 🇧🇷

[@ebw78756]

Putting your gorgeous bowl in front of a fan will make it dry unevenly and warp. If you will put your bowl on your potter’s wheel and let the fan blow on it while the bowl continuously turns, it will produce even drying and reduce the possibility of warping.

[@micheledickey4066]

I feel GREAT! What a great idea and I absolutely love the bowl!!

[@ariannasv22]

I love the look of confetti, such as in my nail polish, so I really loved the look of this piece!

[@patspotpage]

I love the look on your face when you opened the kiln! Nice job.

[@brettgripton3827]

What a beautiful bowl! 🤩 I love the effort you always put into your pieces, every one a labour of love! And a real joy to watch.

[@PotterytothePeople]

Thank you very much!

[@tammyandkiki]

It turned out SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I absolutely love the idea of bisque firing the chips! Thank you for always sharing your great thoughts and ideas 🥰😘

[@PotterytothePeople]

❤️❤️

[@herculade]

This turned out SO beautiful! What an amazing job, Mia!

[@preetphoenix1]

You need to make mug and may be a vase with your new confetti design. ❤love it

[@sofiedelcomyn7786]

🎉 Thank you! I learned a lot today. Got so many ideas!

[@A_Very_Small_Dragon]

I personally find it easier to mix speckles with a bit of my base glaze and paint that mixture on with a large paintbrush, but I've never used dip glazes so I'm not sure how well it would work with those, since they're a lot thinner than paint on glazes

[@Gersberms]

That is gorgeous. I love that style.

[@LauraDBM]

It came out so cool!! Love it :)

[@suttonmorgan5060]

Thank you, I needed this. Trying to hold onto hope as an Art teacher in Utah... and trying to ease my students' distress. This helped.

[@PotterytothePeople]

my gradeschool & highschool art teachers were my biggest childhood influences! Thank you for supporting your students ❤️

[@allenfitz1]

I have dried glazes but have not done any thing with them yet. Now I’m inspired. Thank you

[@chaosdestructionlove]

Thank you for this. Also I would love to see how you experiment with confetti or similar designs in future videos!

don't you think your mother looks at all your videos as soon as they are up? So much for surprises.

[@PotterytothePeople]

luckily she does not 😆

[@diewinkelfrau]

Interesting that there was so much to mindful plan and think and control to make a spontaneous looking confetti painting 🎉 I did the Methode in workshop where they reuse the left over glaze from other painters (dry on reused paperplates) and of course I thought, too : did I over done the sparkles 😬 but all went finde for my bowl 🎉

[@RivLoveshine]

I'm a transgender man who has only socially transitioned, which means I go by a new name (but it hasn't been legally changed), I use different pronouns, and dress in the clothes that align with my gender. I live at home with parents I cannot come out to, and I'm afraid that I'll never get to medical transition. I appreciate videos like this. Get my mind off of the election. Today my brain has been a constant endless back and forth stream of "oh no, the election! My rights!" and the Raiders March (the Indiana Jones theme).

[@stillnotstill]

I believe you'll be able to do that one day but I wish that day was now ❤❤

[@gingerblue]

I'm a mom and I can't IMAGINE not being 100000% accepting of identity/gender/sexuality, especially if it made my kid's life happier and more authentic. Wish I could give you a huge hug and full family acceptance and whatever care you needed for this, so you can live YOUR life in YOUR way. Parental love should never be conditional!!

you hit the nail on the head!!! 🙌🙌

[@minehermit]

jaw breaker bowl!

[@jills7232]

Interesting way to make speckles. I use a dropper and a teflon mat to dry the drops. Then I just roll the teflon mat to loosen them and pour into little plastic cups marked with the color :)

[@PotterytothePeople]

so smart!! 🙌
