If your glaze has any chunky things in it such as those sprinkles, you should gel it by adding a vinegar/epsom salts/calcium chloride. The glaze should have enough fine particles to be thyxotropic (such as those supplied by clay, kaolin, bentonite etc). This will keep the particles in suspension by turning your glaze thicker the longer it is stationary.
Mia -- Perhaps of interest to you or others: When I want speckles I just add them to the glaze which produces an effect identical to using speckled clay. The best speckles to add can be made by you as follows: get some steel wool pads, put them in a bowl, and bisque them to your normal temp. Afterwards, they will be very dry and crumbly and you can just turn them into a powder like substance with your fingers. Adding a small amount to the glaze gives a very nice effect to an otherwise boring glaze. The particles are very light, so although they will settle, they stay suspended enough to let you glaze without any big problems. A little goes a long way.
I love speckles month! ❤❤❤ Such a great idea. 😊
You can use not bisqued with the sprinkle on method and it works about the same! I do agree it’s hard to get even coverage because you have to work quickly.
I think if you add epsom salts to the glaze, it will flocculate the glaze and keep the speckles suspended, im in the middle of experimenting with speckles. Cant wait for the next vid
This speckles month is so much fun! I’m bookmarking them so I can return to them as I build my little workshop and ass glazes. Love the blue ❤
Haha love this! Just a tad bit chaotic but 100% educational 😂
I can't wait to try these!!
These videos are really helpful, and I was just given a box of various glazes that have not been opened in 30 years - most have dried out and I think I may try this method with them to see what happens. I didn't want to toss them because the chemicals are all there, just not the water...
Great video! Very informative! Thanks!
Thank you for your emphasis on safety! 😊
I'm from Brazil and i love your channel! I've learn so much from you, thank you!
I think dipping the bowl into the speckles directly after dunking it in the liquid base glaze would work better. You would need A LOT of speckles to do this but you could sprinkle them inside the bowl while the bottom is resting in the speckle pile
Excellent video x
Wonderful demo~ I'm just starting out and amazed at all these techniques involved in glazing....always learning. Thank you for sharing~
Love it , thank you for sharing this video 😊
great video, love a bit of throw it up in the air and see what happens. a lot learnt there and some unique results. love the paint on version
Gawd I love these speckles. Thank you for trying it out and sharing the different techniques ❤
I love the celadon one. That’s so pretty and interesting.
