Great kiln unloading Lisa! Good luck with your sale!🫶🏻

Lisa, those overglaze mugs are fab! And yes, I know what you mean about the many kiln unloads. I am in the same boat right now. Those pendants are cute too. Love watching your openings. Cheers

Hahaha! Who can keep it all straight!...Power Turquoise, Turquoise Lake, Lake Blue!...YIKES! I chuckled at myself and my thought process when I was watching you mix up the name again. I thought, if it were me, I would find a trick to remember, so I thought, hmmm?...maybe, Turqy Lake! Then I thought, sounds like Turkey Leg! Of COURSE, I would think that since we are commercial TURKEY FARMERS! SHUT UP my brain and keep watching Lisa! Bahahaha! WONDERFUL kiln opening as usual. 🦃

You’re too funny. I was also trying to think of a way to keep the colors straight and I thought maybe using the first letter of each word but some would be the same!! I didn’t know you were turkey farmers! Very cool. Growing up my dad was a chicken farmer pretty small scale of several hundred birds but sure seemed like a lot to me since I was so little. Have an awesome day.

Gawd!! I cannot keep that glaze straight. I actually teach at our local community college and have about 80 students per year. I work really hard on remembering their names. Every once in a while, I get stuck on calling a student the wrong name - lordy! Thankfully they usually see the humor in it. Turkey farmer - wow. So interesting to hear a little bit about people's stories.

Wow Lisa the decals add soo much to the pieces!! I absolutely love them! I have a ton of the vintage decals that I need to use but of course I took a look at the expression decals and I couldn’t believe how many choices they have!!! I love the florals soo much!! Absolutely love your glaze combos and my gosh the 4 dimple mugs are a great idea!!! I was glazing a few days ago to make some pieces to put decals on. Unfortunately I forgot why I was doing them and put the darker colors down too far! I’m so used to doing them a certain way I just did them the same. I got my new mayco glaze kit today with some engobes!! I’m beyond excited to try them! Have an awesome day!!

Hey Lisa oh those overglaze decals are so pretty! Could you do lustre pieces in the same load? I need to play more w turquoises n pinks gorgeous!! Wish I could get coyote glazes! Beautiful unload again xx

@finklepottery704

Hey Nat, I have not tried that, but if it were me I would definitely give it a shot. I might put the lustre pieces on a different shelf than the overglaze decals, and make sure they all have the same recommended temperature. I know you can put lustre over the decals, but you have to do it in two firings. Jessica Putnam Phillips did a very informative video on overglaze decals not too long ago.

I am not a purple girl, but, that purple haze/sangria combo, WOW!

Hi Lisa, what a beautiful kiln opening! Love your pink cloud mugs! I used flux blossom ( 2 coats on its own) on a bowl speckled clay. After firing there are some clear not peachy pink spots on the outside of the bowl where the glaze meets the clay. Do you think I can refire it? Are will it run a lot? Don't know what to do. I really wanted it an even peachy color.

@finklepottery704

Hmmm I’m not sure. I personally would just reapply a coat or two and refire, but I’m not always as thoughtful as I should be. I would perhaps post the question on the Amaco site?

Do you take the Honey flux and birch right to the top or just on the bottom 2/3rds with the Autumn Purple (or other colour glaze) on the top band?

@finklepottery704

3 ай бұрын

Hi Susan, I take it right to the bottom. I haven't had any problems yet. To be honest I usually have more problems with winterwood running when I pair it with flux at the top.

Have you ever used the PSH True Colors Clear? What did you think?
