Hi Sarah. Great pieces - it’s quality not quantity! Can I ask about grinding ceramics with a Dremel? What machine do you have and what type of attachments are suitable? I have a “non Dremel” model that hubby had knocking about in the garage, and quite frankly it’s rubbish! even though I bought new heads suitable for ceramic it doesn’t really touch drips and stuck on cookies. Perhaps a tutorial would be good! Many thanks and I hope you had a good trip. We occasionally nip down to that neck of the woods in our campervan! Anita from Dorset

Hi and thanks for watching. You must be psychic- this week's video (coming out on Sunday) is all about that subject! Tune in for more information on Dremelling your work. 🙂

I absolutely love these poppy seedheads. I made one myself and will send photos when it has been glaze fired. I just have a question. Is the tan background color on these just the clay color or is it the oxide or a glaze? Thank you so much! Beautiful beautiful work!

[@thepotterycorner]

Hello and thanks so much for watching. I'd love to see your version when finished. Don't forget to send the pic! The background biscuit colour is the clay itself - the oxide makes the clay go darker so the lighter areas are just clay without anything on. Hope that helps. 😊

[@handstoheartspottery]

Thank you so much! I will be sure to send a pic as well. ❤

[@rajashuayb3187]

Hi.. could I request specific plates? .. I can send you an image of what I need

[@thepotterycorner]

Hi Raja - that's kind of your to ask but I'm afraid I don't do commission work as I have very little time to fulfil specific orders. Thanks so much for asking though - very kind. 😊
