You are an excellent instructor.

[@PotteryCrafters]

I appreciate that! Thank you. 😊

[@roxannshafto4275]

Beautiful vase. Thank you

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you Roxann! 😊

[@kishayoung9321]

That vase is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing and teaching.

[@PotteryCrafters]

You are so welcome! Thank you Kisha 😍

[@homelifeandstylewithMichelle]

Loved how your vase turned out 😀

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you Michelle. So glad you loved it. It's a pretty cool glaze combination.

[@rOHRshackartpottery]

Hi Marie, I just discovered your videos. I believe that you are the “Mr. Roberts” of clay world. You speak slowly and distinctly. That is a blessing for this 83 year old with hearing aids. I am especially interested in the glaze combinations that you presented in this video and wondered if you could make a video of several other glaze combinations that you have shown at the conclusion of some of your other videos? You can call it 21 glaze combinations. Thank you for doing these.

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you very much. 😊 I have glaze combinations on my list of to-do videos. On this Playlist of videos, I glaze each piece. Here is the link for you kzbin.info/aero/PLN-I0Hl1lbyybD8mJTtutoMbzR8uUB5Nd 😊

[@vickivanriel3082]

Love it! Thank you for doing this. You inspire me to do more with my wheel

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you Vicki 💙You inspire me to make more videos to share with you. Are you going to make vase?😃

[@vickivanriel3082]

@@PotteryCrafters I am but first coffee mugs 😊 Already made a covered pot bigger though 😊

[@cariadwales1979]

Thanks for your advice Marie. today I finally got my pots above 7 inches , so I completed the vase. Its a little lopsided but thats OK, my aim was height. I am so chuffed!! Your projects have definitely improved my skills. Ive now complted 29 of your 30 projects, Just the chapstick bowl to go!!

[@PotteryCrafters]

That's Wonderful Cariad.😍

[@missykitty100able]

Whenever I pull up the walls I start near the bottom right corner but the clay keeps forcing my hand to the top and it starts feeling dry within 2 seconds. It's like the clay is trying to push my hand out of the way or something

[@PotteryCrafters]

Hi Melissa. Did you try using a sponge on the outside? As you notice I'm using a thin sponge to help keep the clay moist. Like training wheels. Yes, the clay will control you if you don't control it. How fast is your wheel going? try going faster and push inward as your hand inside is just guiding. Keep your fingers steady as you move the clay and keep practicing to get the feel of the clay 👍 I hope this help😊

[@cariadwales1979]

Great Video, as always. Im strughling to get height into my pots atm, how tall is your vase please? It'll give me something to aim for.

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you, Cariad. It's always nice to hear from you. That one was one 8 inches. If you like to throw with really smooth clay, height will be a challenge. You can get more height from clay with grog, but it may feel like you are throwing with sandpaper. 🤗😀

[@cariadwales1979]

@@PotteryCrafters Thank you Marie, yes the clay Im using is smooth. Is there any way around this? I can't afford to get grogged clay yet as Ive just bought 25Kg of smooth and will have to use that first !! I just watched your 10K subscription I am also dyslexic and am a retired dyslexia specialist teacher. Many dyslexics are creative. You are an inspiration to others.

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you so much, Cariad. I enjoy helping others on their pottery crafting journey. I hate working with grog on the wheel, so I will set my piece aside for a little bit, let the clay harden a bit (not too much) Then continue to throw for more height. You could give that a try. Thank you for sharing. As you know, some have it worse than others. Unfortunately, I have it worse. The funny thing is I can never spell dyslexic or dyslexia. Like, it's a cruel joke on dyslexics. Thank goodness for spell check.😊

[@cariadwales1979]

@@PotteryCrafters I fully understand your situation, 2of my children also have dyslexia, my son has it bad too. You clearly have good coping strategies as you are well organised in your videos. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed doing your projects I have 3/30 left to do then I intend to do your other projects. I will try the drying the pots a bit to see if I can get past the 5 inch mark 😄

[@PotteryCrafters]

Wonderful 😍Thank you, Cariad. As you know, the key is to stay positive and never give up. I struggle with spelling and writing but never give up. 😊Thanks for helping to make the world a better place, and keep making that beautiful pottery.

I'm still trying number 18. I'm going to trimming today. If I succeed I will be number 20 and then I will do that. So I'm not watching now. I have only Casserole dish in my mind. I am also such a strange follower😂😂

[@kupcads6470]

Dear Marie I commented on your share of casserole dısh on pinterest. I added a photo, please look when you have time🙏🌺

[@PotteryCrafters]

That is wonderful Kiran. Thank you for adding a photo.👍 Thank you so much for taking the time out to let me know. 😀 Please keep me posted on your projects. Have a great productive week. 💙

[@PotteryCrafters]

WOW! I love your Casserole Dish. You are a great student. I am so impressed. Please send a picture when you are finished.😍🙏

[@kupcads6470]

Pottery Crafters really ? I am very happy. My casserole pot holders are too large There is also a little problem with the cover and don't look very good. But for the first time I did . You encouraged me for to do is. You say everything very detailed and well. I say okay I can do it Thanks a thousand times for your good teachings

[@PotteryCrafters]

Thank you so much, Kiran. You can call me Marie 😀. I think it looks great and it's good to have larger handles to hold on to.👍 Too small is not good. Looking forward to seeing the finished Casserole dish.💜
