Gorgeous pottery glaze combination-application technique demo!
Clay used: White Stoneware
🔥 FIRED to cone 6
Glaze combination:
1. From the top of the handle down: 3x snow (amaco)
2. From the top of the mug to where the snow starts: 2x power turquoise (Laguna)
3. Where the snow and power turquoise meet: a thick line of soft white (spectrum) 2x. The soft white will overlap both the snow and turquoise. I used 3x soft white inside the mug (instead of snow).
4. Over the power turquoise: 2x random blue rutile swipes (amaco). Then, 2x random swipes of seaweed (amaco).
5. One thick line of light flux (Mayco) on the rim.
This glaze combination is tried and true! I love it and hope you do too 😍

That combination is gorgeous. Applying all the glazes takes extra work but so worth it. Thank you for doing your videos. I really appreciate it!

Wow!! I LOVE these so much!! I love how you made the mr and Mrs! I don’t have the spectrum or the Laguna glaze. I know I’ve said this before but dang it I neeeed that power turquoise! As soon as it’s warm enough to order glaze again I’ll be grabbing myself some. Great video.

Do you ever find the oils from your hands transfer to your pots and lead to problems?
@thehappyhomesteadnh
Жыл бұрын
I love your user name Miller Mommy. My last name is miller 😘 not sure what you mean but no never have a problem with oils from my hands. Everything basically burns off in the kiln firing. I think the only time oils from your hands would be any issue is if you are burnishing clay and it’s left raw as a finished piece.

@The Happy Homestead NH thank you!!! My "baby" helped me set up my usernname! Right thanks for the response!!! That was my feelings too, but let me explain a bit more. One time, we had some misfiring happen on the glaze fire. There were some pieces where the glaze had "falled off" and my husband reasons, it was the oils from our hands. Even tho, we wash and we aren't greasy people 😂 He wears gloves to glaze now and I do sometimes and don't sometimes...i think what happened to us was a fluke and we were very new at the time, so idk what happened. So if there was an oily thumbprint, it might be enough to keep the glaze from adhering to the pieces, similar to wax resist. I'm glad you've not had any problems. I realize I didn't say how beautiful your mugs are!!! 💙🩵💙🩵💙
Beautiful! Major props to anyone who paints on their glazes! It looks great! I just don't have the patience. Lol. Random question. What video editing software do you use?

Thanks for your great videos. I can't get Spectrum soft white where I live, but I do use pearl white. I've seen you use it a few times. I slow cool and get zero bubbles with my Amaco and Mayco glazes but struggle with Spectrum. Have you any suggestions for me?

Aw thank you! I order all my spectrum glazes online…are you in the US? Hmmmmm …what clay are you using? I bet you could substitute the pearl white instead of soft white if you wanted to try this glaze combo! I love love love amaco glazes on top of the pearl white. Like blue rutile, seaweed…any amaco glaze u could try! I use pearl white as a base for layering quite a bit. Love that glaze but it does run like crazy lol

Update. I emailed my Spectrum supplier and, come to find out, the soft white was mislabeled on their website. I've got a couple pints coming this week. I hope I have results as nice as yours!
I have to say, I saw the orange and thought, oh no, not orange!?! Damn you and your trickery - IT CAME OUT GORGEOUS!!! You need a label that reads, * I'm a professional. Don't try this at home! Amazing work, Molly!
