Make Better Pottery with LOBES!

This week Ann downs a 6 pack of Michelob Beer and attempts to...oh, never mind. If you want to learn how to add some UMPH to your pots then you should think about LOBES! Yeah, they can add interest and pizazz to your pots. Ann made a I Dream of Jeannie bottle for Jim (so he could make his three wishes) but he promptly broke when filming it. Ann evidently got her first wish. Anyway, enjoy you loyal friends!
Answers to questions we get all the time:
We typically bisque to Cone 04 and fire to Cone 5-6
Ann uses Standard English Porcelain no. 365 unless specified otherwise in the video

I love your lobes. But I really love your artwork. You do that so well. It’s always exactly what the pot needs.❤️🤗🐝

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Thanks so much 😊

Great ideas Ann. One thought...for the straight-line challenged (like me!) a laser level is a fabulous tool. They're $10 - $15 on Amazon and work great as a throwing gauge as well. Thanks for all the how-to videos and ideas!

[@annruel1982]

Oh my gosh Pat! That is a great idea. I think I have actually seen someone using one too....was it Old Forge Creations. I forgot all about that. Thanks for reminding me. Happy potting!

[@patspotpage]

@@annruel1982 I wish I could take credit, but I got the idea from Old Forge Creations as well. It works great, is versatile, and less expensive than a commercial throwing gauge...and it doesn't get in the way!

[@annruel1982]

@@patspotpage Thanks at. I just forgot all about that, but now that you reminded me, I will have to get one and try it out I do a lot of dividing the pottery

This couldn't have come at a more apt time. This week I was trying to make bundt pans and lobes is what makes it a bundt pan but I was not having very good luck with them. This will help a lot, thanks.

[@annruel1982]

Great minds think a like Vicki, haha. I hope that helps a little. Just remember that if you are going to stretch out the clay for the lobes, keep the clay a little thicker than you normally would throw it, right. Good luck!

[@grafkimber]

Thanks for sharing Ann. Great idea. Thanks for showing the simple way to make a template. Great ideas🥰

[@annruel1982]

Oh, I am glad you liked that Kimberly!! Those bowls are some of my favorites. They are not just your ordinary round bowl but are so unique and they can be altered to be even more unique. have fun!

I so enjoyed this video Anne, l have been away from pottery for about two years due to a bad rotator cuff, then a failed surgery. This just made-me long to get back to my wheel! Wonderful tutorial , exceedingly good.

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Hope you get back into it - enjoy our videos!

[@darlink57]

Great video! Thanks for all your help! 👍😁

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Happy to help!

[@devingray1671]

Do you let it dry at all before you start the lobes?

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Yes, very important!

[@devingray1671]

@@LittleStreetPottery thank you kindly for replying 😁

[@aprildawn9578]

I love Poppies my favorite is blue. You know you have to cast the seeds in snow and mulch end of January .Could you do Sapphire blue glaze with flowers?

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Interesting! Thanks!

[@lizmeade8410]

Great video! Thank you.

[@annruel1982]

Im glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching. Happy potting!!

[@lyli1969]

Your pottery is amazing, absolutely love it. I see that your designs are not glazed with the clear glaze? Do you varnished them? Do you use wax resistance for the designs and the clear glaze?

[@LittleStreetPottery]

No varnish - watch my underglaze painting 101 video kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIvQlaSEjrKFZ7c (and I offer great video workshops as well - link in description) that will help understand my glazing strategy. Thanks!

You've inspired me to use lobes to make a boot-tay-licious coffee mug.
