What a fun kiln opening! Always nice to watch your videos.

The Halloween mugs are Great 👍

[@ChezChristine57]

Purple mug is beautiful!

[@mariesara]

Lovely pieces, my favorite season of the year is coming 😉🍄🎃

[@dianemodel5824]

I like the big Utah stamp

[@nukuaceramicsbonaire]

So pretty!! You've got some talented students, but, they have a great teacher! 🥰

[@barbarablanclovedthis.very3875]

Awesome. Especially liked the bowl with the Moose. Halloween mugs were awesome. Loved the colors.

[@NoraParrish]

Awesome kiln load - prefer the smaller Utah stamp, but mainly because as a lefty I could actually drink from it. People tell me I make a lot of my mugs with the designs on the wrong side, but actually I make a lot of my mugs for lefty's like myself.

[@andreamcveety8193]

I love the witches brew mug. Can you do video of that!!!! Also excited for the Mandela mug’s tutorial!!!!!

[@SuesOriginals]

I love your T-shirt! I have a similar one I got at NCECA from Clay Times. It is one of my favorite pottery shirts. I think I like the smaller Utah mug but both are really nice. Happy mud pie making.

[@crystallarson5872]

Love the Halloween mugs!

[@hrhosmer]

Your creativity is inspiring. I taught myself on the wheel and glazes, but would have loved to had you to guide me. Your results are awesome. Too much time and labor to ceramics, tho. I have many crafts which is why I find your results amazing. Keep filming 😅

Awesome pumpkin soup mugs. I need to buy one

Krásné...😊😊😊

[@katlady5000]

great kiln opening. There is some wonderful pieces in there. I love the Halloween and Utah mugs.

[@jhenniceamorrow5936]

Definitely prefer the larger Utah shape.

[@carolynpollack1083]

Hi. All lovely pieces. Love the mugs and the Halloween stuff.

[@patspotpage]

Great load! I am really looking forward to the mandala video! Those are beautiful! Good luck and have fun at the art festival. I wish I were closer! On those spoons, I wonder if she did the same method as the blood spatter? But way cool effect! Love, love, LOVE the little bottle with the spider on it, and the lace mugs! And I think I like the large medallion Utah mug better, but both are great. I don't know if I could possibly pick a favorite. The halloween mugs are fab! It's all great! Thanks for sharing.

[@hiltonhillhomestead]

Oh my goodness! I cant wait till Im making awesome pieces like these! Im loving the witchy and pumpkin pieces!

[@soulwinds31]

Smaller Utah 😊 looking fwd to video on how to fix a crack..one of my large witches has a clean crack in her cape!!! 😅

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I'll get working on getting it up

[@soulwinds31]

@@hobblecreekpottery ty..it's winter ..I'm in New Zealand..ty for everything you do..I've learnt heaps just watching you

[@tegannottelling]

Love the lace mug and the bone mug. Wish we celebrated halloween here a little more, not a huge thing here. It should be getting cooler for you there soon. Australia is warming up, only chilly at night now.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Still high 90s. Ugh. We start cooling down at night which is so nice.

[@lisabroussardjanuska6774]

Those Halloween mugs were gorgeous, loved the blending of the orange purple and black, but the opulence luster look picked up by your camera just made the big payoff for me, beautiful! And your moose items all were gorgeous! I can never find nice transfers and I never have seen the large houses, those were cool…zombie hand, oh my what fun!

[@cagswanny]

Love all our stuff. Wish I could take lessons with you. Smaller Utah shape is preferred.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Agreed!

[@roadmap5351]

Can you show how you make colored slip?

[@micheledickey4066]

Omg!! I LOVE the pumpkin soup bowls!! I love every dang pumpkin thing!! Just started making fall pumpkins myself. I definitely prefer the smaller state shape. Love the handles! What an awesome idea!! Bella’s piece is so well done. Love it. Can’t wait to see the video where you fixed the mug!!! We all need that! Lol I know my comments get so long. Sorry. But can you please tell me where you get your high fire stilts? I fire to a cone 6/7 and the stilts I used melted into the bottoms of the pieces I’ve used them on. Thanks soooo much.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I buy the stilts from my local clay supplier. It's Patty's Ceramics in Provo, UT and they do ship. My stilts will eventually melt after so many firings.

[@micheledickey4066]

@@hobblecreekpottery Thank you so much. I bought high fire stilt pins and made a bunch of them using a mold I have but the pins only fire to cone 5!! Ugh

[@hobblecreekpottery]

@micheledickey4066 I'm getting ready to make my own and I'm going to cut up my old kiln elements as the wire. Joe my kiln guru told me to do that.

[@micheledickey4066]

@@hobblecreekpottery I will absolutely be doing the same when I need to change my elements!! It’s great having the mold for them. I use them without the stilt pins and they lift the pot up enough to prevent all of my drips, so far, from hitting the shelf! The drips will go around and stick to the bottom which sometimes makes feet for the pot! Lol

[@fidgetsaround]

Love getting credit for things I didn’t do lol! Those tiles aren’t mine (Caroline’s).

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Opps! Did you see someone commented, wanting your pumpkins?

[@workofartgreeley7065]

would you consider doing a tutorial for the skull mold you have that you do as a press mold instead of slip casting... I have the same mold. Greatly appreciated if you get a chance!

[@SP-zb2fx]

What is the orange and purple glaze you used on Halloween mugs? Beautiful colors!!!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I used Speedball orange and Amaco Amethyst Velvet underglaze and blended them on the mug. Then, after adding the transfers, I dipped it in zinc free clear.

[@ker5776]

Loving the mug with the bone handle. What kind of wash did you use for that? Would a black underglaze work wiped back?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

That's exactly what I did. 😀

[@roadmap5351]

Love your kiln openings! Where are you getting your terra red clay?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Aardvark

[@carolnodgaard74]

Where do you get the heavy duty wire to hang items in the kiln? Thanks. Love your videos.❤

[@hobblecreekpottery]

They are rods from a jewelry tree. Your clay supplier should sell them.

[@roadmap5351]

On the haloween mugs that were on the bottom shelf, did you use colored slips for the orange and blended colors?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Yes! I blended Speedball orange and Amaco Velvet amethyst and black to get the background the way I wanted it. Then covered with my studio zinc free clear.

[@shelleydoxtdator753]

Maybe Malibu Barbra doesn’t like a hold?

[@shelleydoxtdator753]

Your mugs “what the heck” how did you do the stamp? Underglaze/clear glaze then wax before you glazed the whole mug?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Exactly that!

[@shelleydoxtdator753]

Thank you 😊 - sooo many tricks of the trade 👍

[@ker5776]

Could you please tell us the orange and purple halloween mugs with the transfers which glazes were use for those?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I blended underglazes black, orange, and purple and then did a clear glaze over. The transfer was from Sanbao.

[@ker5776]

Thank you so much! Does the brand matter?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

@@ker5776 I used orange Speedball and Amaco black Velvet and purple. I mix brands all the time and haven't had issues.

[@jamiethompson4289]

What size /gauge high heat metal wire is used for the spoons during firing?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I'm not sure as I've had them for years. It came with a jewelry tree.

[@rokoroo]

Go get yourself a first aid kit for the studio!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Lol, I need too.

[@dianemodel5824]

Where did you get the moose transfers from?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

It's a silkscreen from ezsilkscreens.com and I make my own transfers from the silkscreen.

[@ker5776]

Where did the spider image come from on the mug? Is that a decal?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I either bought it from Sanbao or Elan Transfers.

[@jamiethompson4289]

how do you get the tops off? Mine are so stuck.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

They aren't glazed and we hit them with a wooden dowel. I tap around the pot until the lid releases.

[@jamiethompson4289]

thank you so much!@@hobblecreekpottery
