Hi Marie. I am a relatively new potter and love watching your videos. You speak slowly and calmly and it is very easy to follow you. Thank you for sharing your expertise. Even for stuff I already know I am happy for your reminders. I work in the studio at our local senior center and am going to encourage the other potters to watch your videos. I love your recommendation to “stay dirty!”

I'm subscribed to several pottery pages on TH-cam, and yours are my favorite. You're always easy to understand and full of useful information. Thank you for taking the time to share your skills with us❤️.
Thank you! I'm a detailed note taker and love the tip about using a photo album, especially because you can include any photos of the finished piece for reference ☺️
You are so welcome! Yes you right! It can seem over whelming at first but once you the basic do's and don'ts down, it becomes even more fun to craft with clay.😊👍
Buenas noches y gracias desde Cuenca, Ecuador. After many, many years I'm enjoying getting back to playing with clay. I'm finding help in all of the videos I've watched. More to go.
Hi there! I’m a new subscriber and teaching myself pottery by watching videos such as yours. I’m having a lot of fun and I’m delighted that I found your channel. I’m a 63 year old woman and live in California.
My name is Brian and I live and teach elementary school in Portland, Maine. I opened my own studio in December of 2020 and have been slowly learning best practice in glazing. THANK YOU for being so detailed in your tips!
Thank you for all your information, very helpful. I was asked to rin a Ceramic Group at our retirement community, of course I am very rusty, because I paint, more then do pottery. Watching your videos have help me refresh...I refer to myself as the Rusty Potter😉 Thank you
You have taught me soo much! I have been a slipcaster for many many years and recently started hand building. I’ve re watched so many of your videos. Thank you so much for all of your videos!!!
Amazing videos, so informative and well organised! Thank you so much! I had a negative experience recently with a studio teacher being extremely negative about people learning pottery, and seeing your videos and positive attitude has lifted my spirit back up. Thank you!
thank you so much for your wonderful advice. I'm learning a LOT from you. I've been playing with hand building for about a year and this Christmas my husband gave me a potters wheel which I'm in the process of learning how to throw. I need advice in every phase of pottery and by watching your videos I'm finding out how little I know. Again, thank you.
You are a fabulous orator. And the way you speak without superfluous words is perfect for my comprehension. I love your style of teaching. I’m so glad I found you today and yet I don’t remember how that happened. I have subscribed and look forward to catching up with your videos.
Thanks for the tips. I'll ensure that I have a notebook and pen ready. The tip on alternating the horizontal and vertical when painting was very useful. Thanks.
Welcome to the wonderful world of crafting pottery. Glad I can help. Glazing can be tricky at first. The good news is there are so different ways to glaze you find the way or ways that you enjoy the most. The things we can do with clay and glaze are endless.
I took ceramics a long time ago and am just starting to get back into it. Your videos are a great refresher! you go slow enough for me to process the information without sounding condescending like some videos. Thank you, and keep making videos! my next project is a water fountain that doubles as a dog water dish!
hi from Brazil! I'm loving to watch your videos Marie, you exude so much serenity and knowledge, I almost meditate while I learn from you haha thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, you answered many questions that I didn't even know I had
I watch your videos before I go to my ceramics class at my local recreation center, because my instructor is sometimes hard to understand because of her accent (I'm from the Southern United States, but I sound like I'm from the Midwestern US).
I’m not even finished but I have to thank you so deeply for sharing this! I’ve found brush glazing so difficult without attending a class for it; but you’ve answered so many of my questions already! You might have other videos on this I haven’t found yet; but for myself I find it so difficult to get even application of glaze when working with home-mixed or ‘dipping’ glazes. If you’d have the time or energy to do a close-up detailed demonstration of brushing on multiple layers, I’d be so grateful. Looking close enough to see what I should look for when repeating for myself, and pointing out common errors etc. Thanks again!

I am an intermediate pottery. I haven't done much pottery for quite a few years, but I'm getting back into it, now. I am so happy to have found your informative videos. They're great for refreshing my memory! But, I am learning lots of goodies, too! Thank you so much. I'm Deborah Klein Glory Bee Studio @Sugar Mt, NC
@@PotteryCrafters Me, too! I love learning from you. You're such a good instructor - and very thorough. And I can tell that you really love what you're doing. Thanks again!
Hi! I'm a mixed media artist and have just purchased a kiln and have been watching your videos. I will be hand building mostly, but have learned so much about glazing and clay from your videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! :)
Thank you for the carefully detailed explanation. I am just starting out on my own in the world of pottery and its very easy to get confused and overwhelmed. I feel like it's have a decent grasp on glazing now. Looking forward to trying some out on my own and taking notes! 😉
Thank you. Welcome to the wonderful world of crafting pottery! Here is a link to all my videos with over 100 to choose from. www.youtube.com/@PotteryCrafters/videos
Thank you so much for this video! i a beginner, having started taking classes from a local artist about 3 months ago. My instructor is awesome, but i like watching videos to get a better understanding of techniques! do you have any videos on hand brushing layering techniques including drips? Also hand building tips?
You are so welcome! Here are a few that may be helpful. The hand building tips are on my potterycrafters website. Here is the link for you. potterycrafters.com/tips-for-hand-building-pottery/ At the end of all these videos, I show how I glaze them th-cam.com/play/PLN-I0Hl1lbyybD8mJTtutoMbzR8uUB5Nd.html Welcome to the wonderful world of crafting pottery. Happy to help you. 😊
Thank you for your videos. I have a lot to learn about pottery and I appreciate your tutorial assistance! Love how you speak slowly instead of the rapid-fire-speed-talking of some tutorials. Two questions about using wax resist on the bottoms of bisque ware: One or two coats on the bottom? After applying the wax resist, do I fire the bisque ware again before glazing it (and then fire a third time)?
Thank you Miranda 😊 Those are very good and important questions. You only need one coat of wax resist, wait until the wax resist is completely dry then apply your glaze. The wax resist will burn off during the glaze fire. For more detailed information on wax resist here is a link to my post - potterycrafters.com/what-is-wax-resist-in-pottery-used-for/ 😊
Newbie here. Just wanted to say thank you for all your help. My first and second coat of painted on clear (pink) glaze just sank right through the bisque ! I was shocked because I thought it would slop on and be really thick but it wasn't. I shook the heck out of the bottle too lol. Maybe as long as it's really well covered in pink when it's dry it'll be ok? We'll see :-)
Hi, Welcome to the wonderful world of crafting Pottery. Yes, this will happen with the first coat as the dry porous bisqueware sucks the glaze in. The second coat should be smoother. If it seems too thin you can brush on one more thin coat of glaze. Happy glazing 😊
I loved this video! I am not new to visual arts but totally new to ceramics. I really want to paint some of my artwork on flat ceramics for wall hangings or plaques, plates, ect. I see 2D as I don't have sterio vision so this works best for me. Any video that could demonstrate how glazes react to this technique as compared to pottery. I am going for an impressionist msytical look with glazes and etching on the clay.
Hi Eve, Thank you very much. If I understand correctly. I think using underglazes to get the effect you want. Then apply clear glaze over it. This should work because underglazes are more for drawing on pottery. Even colored slip in the greenware stage could work because you can apply it thicker. I hope this helped.😊
Thank you for this video! Extremely helpful and answered so many of my quesitons. Excited to dive more into your channel - if you haven't made one already, I'd love to see a video on a day of throwing, including specifically how you go about staging things and then clean up afterwards. Thanks so much!
Thank you, Michelle. That is a great suggestion. I haven't made one all the way to the cleanup stage, but I do have 30 pottery wheel projects. Here is the link for you to check out th-cam.com/play/PLN-I0Hl1lbyybD8mJTtutoMbzR8uUB5Nd.html 😊
Another super informative video for me! Thank you. The examples of the pots with not enough glaze and the tip about checking the thickness of the glaze were the most helpful for me.
Thank you! I struggle so much with glazing, applying oxides, etc. Also, can you please tell me more about that grinding tool? What is the head made of? This was ever so helpful. Watching from 🇲🇹 Malta. 🙂
Hi from Malta, very cool. So happy to help. The Diamond tools work for grinding off glaze. Here is the link for you to check out geni.us/rEEdpbA Here is the link to the rotary tool also geni.us/W6TtzSy
😍 Thank you so much, Alexandra. I had fun making this video. Glad I can help. I sure know how it was when I started. I have a box full of glaze mistakes. 😀
Thank you, Will. I think you meant off the finished piece. If so I have this video for you that may help. th-cam.com/video/Jh8vQsfiRqE/w-d-xo.html This roatary tool works great. 😊 geni.us/W6TtzSy
This is great, thank you Can you please share how do I create special glazes? Is it different glaze layers or mixing different ones in a bowl and writing the ingredients
Hi Hanna. Good suggestion. You can do it both ways. Amaco has mixable glazes and you can also layer glazes. Here are a few links to layering videos that may interest you. th-cam.com/video/UBwH85rjafY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/yk77b-JSf3Y/w-d-xo.html
@@PotteryCrafters Thank you so much, I have seen this video already, I am using Botz glazes, are they mixable in a container as well and not only in layers? Thanks again, I am new to ceramics and still nervous a bit 🤓
Thank you so much for all your videos! They are extremely helpful especially for those just starting out. May I ask how do you dispose the water after cleaning the brushes with glazes in them? Can you wash them down the sink? I assumed you have to treat it just like clay water.
Hi Shruthi. Thank you. I dispose of glazes like I do clay. Here is a post that may be helpful. potterycrafters.com/properly-disposing-of-and-recycling-pottery-glazes/ Keep making that beautiful pottery.
Once again, another great video. I am new to brushing on glaze, I think that I've been putting it on too thin as basically every color I brush on ends up brown. My real question is regarding glazes that run. I love the look of a flowing moving glaze but am curious if I put a area of matte glaze or something else at the bottom if it would help to stop or slow the flow. Any ideas other than to leave the bottom of a bowl with only a thin layer of glaze?
Hi, Ann. Thank you very much. Yes, you can use a stable glaze. Keep in mind if a glaze says breaks, flows, floats, or anything like that it is going to move. Here is a brush glazing video that may be helpful. th-cam.com/video/UBwH85rjafY/w-d-xo.html Keep in mind that Amaco Caledon glazes are stable.
Another helpful video, thank you Marie! I’d love to see a video on finishing (polishing?) techniques for bone dry and bisque to make smooth finishes. 💛
Thank you very much R C 😊 I do have a playlist of 30 Pottery Wheel Projects for you to choose from. In all of them, I show the glazing process that may be helpful for you. 😍 th-cam.com/play/PLN-I0Hl1lbyybD8mJTtutoMbzR8uUB5Nd.html

Thank you! Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you 😊
Another super informative video for me! Thank you. The examples of the pots with not enough glaze and the tip about checking the thickness of the glaze were the most helpful for me.
You are so welcome Jennifer! Thank you 😍
I had issues getting June Bug to come out right. I’m going to have to try this to see if that helps.
That's great! It sure does help for me. 😊
Thank you for all the help.
You're welcome Dave. Happy to help 😍

Hi Tasha 😊 Wow! City by the bay. Welcome to Pottery Crafters.😀
YOU ARE AMAZING, so grateful for your work!!
Thank you so much Kelly! 😍
Thank you! I struggle so much with glazing, applying oxides, etc. Also, can you please tell me more about that grinding tool? What is the head made of? This was ever so helpful. Watching from 🇲🇹 Malta. 🙂
Hi from Malta, very cool. So happy to help. The Diamond tools work for grinding off glaze. Here is the link for you to check out geni.us/rEEdpbA Here is the link to the rotary tool also geni.us/W6TtzSy
This was a great video. Really simplified the steps for an inexperienced potter like myself. Thank you!

Beautiful technique!!!

This is great, thank you
Can you please share how do I create special glazes? Is it different glaze layers or mixing different ones in a bowl and writing the ingredients
Hi Hanna. Good suggestion. You can do it both ways. Amaco has mixable glazes and you can also layer glazes.
Here are a few links to layering videos that may interest you. th-cam.com/video/UBwH85rjafY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/yk77b-JSf3Y/w-d-xo.html
@@PotteryCrafters Thank you so much, I have seen this video already, I am using Botz glazes, are they mixable in a container as well and not only in layers? Thanks again, I am new to ceramics and still nervous a bit 🤓
You're welcome Hana. Yes being nervous a bit is normal. I think most of us were. If you have any questions feel free to ask. 😊
Thank you
You're welcome
Hello, thank you great info, answered my issues!!
You're welcome 😍 So glad it helped!
Thank you so much for all your videos! They are extremely helpful especially for those just starting out. May I ask how do you dispose the water after cleaning the brushes with glazes in them? Can you wash them down the sink? I assumed you have to treat it just like clay water.
Hi Shruthi. Thank you. I dispose of glazes like I do clay. Here is a post that may be helpful. potterycrafters.com/properly-disposing-of-and-recycling-pottery-glazes/ Keep making that beautiful pottery.
@@PotteryCrafters Thank you so much for sharing this, Marie! You're a star.
Once again, another great video. I am new to brushing on glaze, I think that I've been putting it on too thin as basically every color I brush on ends up brown. My real question is regarding glazes that run. I love the look of a flowing moving glaze but am curious if I put a area of matte glaze or something else at the bottom if it would help to stop or slow the flow.
Any ideas other than to leave the bottom of a bowl with only a thin layer of glaze?
Hi, Ann. Thank you very much. Yes, you can use a stable glaze. Keep in mind if a glaze says breaks, flows, floats, or anything like that it is going to move. Here is a brush glazing video that may be helpful. th-cam.com/video/UBwH85rjafY/w-d-xo.html Keep in mind that Amaco Caledon glazes are stable.
Another helpful video, thank you Marie! I’d love to see a video on finishing (polishing?) techniques for bone dry and bisque to make smooth finishes. 💛
Thank you very much R C 😊 I do have a playlist of 30 Pottery Wheel Projects for you to choose from. In all of them, I show the glazing process that may be helpful for you. 😍

@@PotteryCrafters Thank you! I should have clarified, cleaning up pieces hand cut from slabs. ☺️
No, I haven't yet. I've been mainly working on the pottery wheel, but I will put it on my list. Thank you very much for your suggestion.😊
Thank you for the great tips!
You are welcome Paula! If you have any questions feel free to ask.😊
I would like to see video on using transfer paper
Yes I have video on how to use transfer paper. Here is the link for you th-cam.com/video/yo9BryF71xo/w-d-xo.html 😊
Really good experience thank you
Always welcome 😍 Glad to help.
@@PotteryCrafters I would like to learn pottery, where are you located?
That's great. I don't have time to teach right now but hope to in the future. As of now, I am just doing videos and my potterycrafters website of any pottery-making information. 😊
@@PotteryCrafters thank you very much
Appreciate you
Thank you 😊
