    I followed your sprig method with great success thank you. BUT I'm struggling with applying them without them 'lifting'. Have you done a video on applying them please? Many thanks

    Sorry for the slow response! I haven't made a video on this, but it is best practice to make sure both the object and the sprig are basically the same leather hard consistency. Apply slip to both sides and firmly work the edges down with your fingers or the tool of your choice. Drying the piece slowly will also help a lot! I hope this helps... -Andy

    Great tutorial, many thanks. If I may ask a question as to the grainy texture on the pot - how did you do that?

    Hi there! This little bottle was wood fired and the texture was created when the wood ash didn't melt all of the way.

    What a bummer! I really only recommend #1 pottery plaster which is the industry standard for slip casting and pottery molds. If you have tried this type of plaster and it didn't work, your mixing ratios must be adjusted or the plaster itself is old and no longer usable. Good luck! -Andy
