Mame pots on a mini pottery wheel

I'll try to do that glaze combo again in the next batch.

Or, you could try purple.

I'll do purple too.

I've got this crazy idea to make a 100 pot batch.

Rules are, I get to preview first, right?

They're all wonderful...I hope you'll post all your work. It's a pleasure to see. I particularly like your glazed pieces.

I wanna go back, in discussion, to that glaze combo.

That looks like many different particulate “weights”, and much color from the suspension itself..

Is it because the notes you made just cover the recipes... and the “order of events” would have to be specific to that EXACT time and “itinerary” of the several (it appears)distributions?...

I was actually thinking about this yesterday... that once I started using different layers to accomplish different things, I would document the recipes... but I’d always forget exact orders of operations.

My note-taking skills need to adapt!

I have not mixed any glazes myself from recipe yet. All my glazes are commercially available. When I glaze my pots I write down on a note the glaze or combo which is over which and place the pot with the note and take a pic. This helps me to remember the what I used with that pot. If it worked out well or not. I've got some glazes and combos now memorized to a specific clay.

Remember glazes react different to different clay bodies. What you think will work with one clay doesnt with another.....I know this first hand.

I REALLY like that medieval-looking one... with the big “smithy rivets”
