Hello everyone & thanks for checking out my channel where we explore all things clay, from Kiln Opening Videos to Tips and Tricks and Tutorials where I explain the rudiments of working with clay and the seemingly endless possibilities.
I sell my work via my Etsy Shop (www.etsy.com/uk/shop/potterycorneratno45). The Pottery Corner is my studio based near Chichester on the South Coast of England. Ever wondered if you could throw on a pottery wheel? Watched that marvellous programme The Great Pottery Throw Down and wanted to have a go? Come to the studio and enjoy learning to throw on the wheel in our lovely, light and airy studio. You'll learn the basic techniques of working with clay at one of the numerous courses on offer via my website at www.thepotterycorner.co.uk. It'd be great to see you on a course sometime soon.
Thanks for stopping by and kind regards

Oh, and I love your hair!
Very clear explanation of the process! Thank you!
I've been reading your replies to find out if you are okay. I understand that it probably is a huge amount to work to keep these videos going, but I do miss you terribly. You are absolutely my favorite potter in the whole world! Be kind to yourself and those nasty little kiln cookies! I hope that you get back into making videos again. It's weird how you can become so attached to someone you've never met. Geoffrey
So incredibly helpful!
your hair is gorgeous !
@@goobygoo6105 -why thanks so much 🙏
I have to try this technique, I love it❤
😊hi Sarah I hope you are doing well. I don’t see your videos posting anymore. Like I said I hope everything is fine with you and your family. Sending good vibes for you and your family. I’m from Canada, Vancouver I know is far away but if I can help any form, let me know🤗
Hi Marcia and thanks for the message. I've taken a rest from KZread over the last few months. Life has just got too hectic with ageing parents and the support I have to give to them. My father has Alzheimer's which is proving to be very challenging and time consuming. I am hoping to return but just not at the moment. I appreciate the message. Kind regards Sarah
@@thepotterycorner Hi Sarah I know how difficult it is, my Mom just pass away on June 5, very sad, she had the same, it is difficult but at least they are not in pain, just confused. Don’t forget to take care of yourself, lots of hugs for you and your family🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
You are my favorite online teacher. Greetings from Las vegas!
Thanks so much Valerie - that is very kind. Thanks for watching
You dress so nice when you work. I would be a mess after working in clay and glaze 😂
Why can’t I find 2?
I love the Ceramica decals but the cost of postage to the UK is astronomical a $10 order would cost $60 postage!! Ids there a UK supplier?
@cariadwales1979 - I agree the postage is a big problem. Bluematchbox in reading does some underglaze decals but not the Skyline version. If you have clay buddies you could do an order and split the postage- that would work. You could put your own spin on the design here too. Thanks for watching. Hope you do the project 😊
Just came across this video as I was about to set up my Decal and lustre program. Very helpful thank you!
Thanks so much for watching. Glad it was helpful..
Thank you - just the brush-up on oxides I was looking for! Very helpful video. Cheers from Copenhagen, Denmark :)
Thanks so much for watching - great to have you along from Denmark
From Idaho, USA Like your simple teaching. Now getting some questions answered.😊
Thanks so much Keith. Glad it was helpful. Great to have you along from across the Pond.
Can you use kiln wash on the cookies ?
Hiya and thanks for watching. you could use kiln wash on the cookies but it's not really needed. I tend to use cookies smaller than the circumference of the pot so that if any glaze drips down it doesn't stick the cookie to the piece. Hope that helps.
Thank you from Australia 🙏🏼
Thanks for Being Here! Great to have you along.
Hola from Spain. Great videos with simple explanations 👍
Hi Denise thanks for watching. Glad you found it helpful.
Hola from Spain. Loving your videos
Hi Denise - great to have you along from Spain.
I'm intimidated by porcelain. Why won't white stoneware work?
Hi Jessica - Porcelain can be intimating but it really isn't too difficult to work with. See if you can get a sample pack of perhaps a 1kg pack to give it a try. You can, of course, use normal white stoneware but the hydrangea heads are not quite so fine if using this. Thanks for watching and hope you have a go at this lovely project.
Amazing video, especially for me as a beginner potter. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching Mariska. Great to have you along - there's a large back catalogue of beginners tutorials on my channel if you fancy taking a look
@@thepotterycorner Oh amazing, will do, thanks! <3
Alberta, Canada, Parkland Potters Guild
Great to have you along from Canada and thanks so much for watching.
Thank you so so much for this video. I love love monoprint. I have made beautiful pieces and they sell like hot cake 😂
Hi and thanks so much for watching. I love monoprinting too and what Iike best is the uniqueness of the pieces - no two will ever by the same. Glad you enjoy it too.
I am interested to know if this is possible, I too have an underglaze black pencil ZQ0069 from Amazon, it’s arrived and I have onto once fired ceramic piece brushed on Duncan Concept, I am hoping I can now draw with the pencil mentioned and apply Duncan EZ strokes to put in some colour, then fire to glaze fire. What do you think? Too much for an 89 yr old I hear you mutter 😉. ……ps the porcelain clay Hydrangea heads are all given away or bought, and one was glazed in Manchester City colours for a friend who like myself is an ex Wren, ..for her husbands grave,…( without the stalk). Virginia Rose.
Hi Virginia - great to hear from you again. Yes - I think this could work. It is a bit difficult to draw with the underglaze pencil over glaze but it might work better over underglaze. Definitely not too much for an 89 year old ! So pleased the hydrangeas were a hit. My Grandmother was a wren in the first World War. She hailed from Weymouth in Dorset.
So there is slip on the transfer?
Hi Linda and thanks for watching. On some versions I slip over the transfer and then pull the transfer and the slip off to reveal the slip colour underneath. Hope that helps.
will the oxides work with low fire glazes?
Hi Ray - yes, they should work in the same way as high fire. You may get more colour with lower firing ranges. thanks so much for watching and commenting. Hope you give it a try.
Zo leuk om te zien, dank je wel
Thanks so much for watching
So neat to see how to make underglaze pastels! Thank you!
Thanks for watching. I'm glad it was helpful.
Came out gorgeous Sarah, very very pritty ♡
Ohh, such a lovely pot. You made it beautiful. Thinking about to make one too. When it comes to that i surely will let you know. Thanks so much for sharing this great tutorial with us. 👋 bye Sheila from over the pond 😅 ⛵
Hi Sheila - yes - another great project - have a go! Kind regards Sarah
Thanks so much. Very helpful 🙂❤
Thanks for watching Janine. Glad it's helpful 😊
Thanks!
Thanks so much for your super thanks donation. It really means a lot 😊
Yes i also save my glaze the way you showed here by cleaning out the empty pots. The brushes i do different. I wash them in a glass with not to much water all together. That brush water i let untouched for about a week. The coloured residue of glaze has sank to the bottem. I then pour out as much "clear" water as possib. Then i put te glass in a warm spot so that the residue got completely dry. I scrape the dryed up residue out with a knife into my mystery chips pot. It comes out flaky and powdery. Thank you Sarah showing this. The way you talk about all kind of pottery stuff keeps me always hanging on your lips 😂 👋 bye Sheila
Thanks for sharing your process Sheila. Your way you get a mix of glaze without knowing what you're going to get - like Forrest Gump! Your lovely comments make all the work to produce these videos worthwhile. Thanks again Sarah
@@thepotterycorner welcome Sarah ☻
Beautifull works 👍
Thanks Sheila. Great to have you here again
@@thepotterycorner welcome Sarah 👋
Sarah, nice video, great helps!! I'm Sheila, born and live my life in the Netherlands. So, just a lil bit of water between us 😂. Live watching your vids. Keep on making them. 👋 👋 bye Sheila
Thanks for tuning in again Sheila. Always great to hear from you. I'm glad you enjoyed this one.
@@thepotterycorner you are welcome Sarah 🌸
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video, I’m still learning lots of clay work and love working with crank, will definitely be making these… watching from Whitstable Kent
Thanks so much for watching Pat. Glad you enjoyed it. It's a great project and one that can take you in many directions!

Thanks so much for watching Seymour. What a wonderful place to live! 😊
Wonderful explanation, thank you ! Hello from Bosham !
Thanks for tuning in Teresa. Can't believe you're only 2 miles away! Small world 🌎 😊
This was sooooo informative!!!!!
Thanks so much for watching. I'm so pleased it was helpful. 😊
Agree with Sherri. I didn't know that skipping adds meant that content makers didn't get a payment. I will watch through from now on.
Hi and thanks for watching. That's kind of you to watch the ads! They don't pay much but the little bit is much appreciated. 😊
What a fun build! Take care and many thanks from Las Vegas Nevada.
Thanks for watching Valerie. It's probably my best loved project. 😍
So lovely made Sarah ♡
Thanks so much Sheila. It's a lovely project 😊
A very useful video! Thanks a lot! With kind regards from The Netherlands!
Thanks so much for watching. Great to have you along 😀
So very handy and helpfull tutorial. Thank you Sarah, I'm going to keep an eye out on silicon molds now even more. 👋 bye Sheila 🌸
Thanks for watching. Glad it was helpful
@@thepotterycorner you are welcome 🌸
Where are you? I hope everything is good with you🤗
Am I correct in assuming that slip applied at appropriate thickness and then fired will not run or will run very little when fired? Great video explanation, thanks!
Hi and thanks for watching. Yes - you are correct - slip does not run. It is basically your clay body with a coloured pigment and only be used on greenware. Hope that helps.
Hi Sarah your hairdo is nice suits you well 👏 👏 Now the kiln unload, that is a good one, i like all the pieces, so nice to see what your students make. I really would like to see how the finished decoration build from the little bowls turned out ( with a bead or driftwood?) Thank you for your video. 👋 Sheila 🌸
Thank you so much Sarah for this usefull video. I certainly will follow your example 👍 Always wanted to see it actually how to dremel such drippely remains off. Greetz Sheila 🌸
Thanks for watching Sheila. My least favourite job!
@@thepotterycorner you are welcome 👍
Beautiful sead heads. Wow with the glass drips.❤
Hi Sheila and thanks so much for watching. Thanks for the kind words 😊
@@thepotterycorner you are welcome. I heard in one of those is something belling in it?
Nice to revisit you. I needed a review oxides, but mostly, I'm missing you. Jackie from rural Arizona USA.
Hi Jackie- thanks for the message. We're OK- just suffering with needing to support my ageing parents. I really hope to get back to KZread again soon so stay tuned 😊
Sarah, been missing you, is everything all okay? Hoping you are well and that life is treating you ok.... heart emoji (if only i knew how to do that) xxx
Hi Fay and thanks for watching. All is a bit challenging at present. I have elderly parents who need my support so time for YouTubing has suffered. I'm hoping to get back to this soon so stay tuned 😊
@@thepotterycorner Thanks for taking the time to reply. I understand having nursed my father through alzheimers until his sad death 2 years ago, my time was completely eaten up, I hope you are managing to do a little personal work as I certainly suffered from not being able to do any art it is so important for our souls. x
@@a705fay - my father was diagnosed with Alzheimers in December last year. He has had a pretty rapid deterioration which is sad. I am trying to do some work, mainly towards sculpture, which is helping to keep me sane! As you well know it is pretty challenging at times. Thanks for your support - much appreciated. Sarah
