- Hi there happy pot lovers! I was finally able to get the kiln rewired, new elements, and even some new bricks. So here is glaze fire #12, with the lessons I learned.
Each firing is a learning process, I don't care how experienced one is. This one is no exception. I'll be re-firing several of the pieces, but also had some wins.
I put some still images with the glazes that I used at the end. I'll upload a separate video where I show each piece in more detail, and give before and after pictures, plus links to all the glaze recipes. That will take more editing.
I swear, video editing takes as much time as the making of pottery! Maybe I'll get faster as I get more experience. But at least I'm getting a little better at both the pottery and the editing. (That's what if feels like, anyway!)
Let me know if you like this format, or if there's something else you'd like to see.
Special thanks go out to @PaulaMcCoyCFE for her tutorials on making paste flowers and her Colors for Earth Color Concentrates, @SarahWaltonPottery for her videos showing her glaze techniques, @LittleStreetPottery and @hobblecreekpottery for their videos sharing ideas and inspirations which were incorporated here, and @povpottery3648 for the water whistle idea.

Thanks for watching, and keep chasing those dreams!
Congratulations on the new elements. Looks like an old Skutt, an old one was one of the best I've had. Looks like it's outside in the open. I had one housed in an old truck body and saw them last fall at Westmoor Pottery in NC housed in an open wall shed that snow could blow in. Can't be good for them but really shows the dedication of the potter.
Thanks! I cover Chubs with a grill cover when he's not in use. It's not ideal, but it's what I've got! He's a Paragon A88B with the extension. Limited space, but a great starter kiln.
Wow!!!! I love the face your fear! And that water whistle is amazing!!!!!
Thank you! They are fun to make and a great use of my reclaim scraps. They make a good kiln filler too. I've got some more in the kiln now. We should have a reveal tomorrow morning if I do a live, or later in the week if I record and edit. Editing takes more time than making! LOL
@@patspotpage oh I know!!! The editing is what holds things up 😂
So interesting about the green mason stain on the flower mug…those flowers are gorgeous btw!! I had trouble with my green mason stain too..I made colored green clay with it and it turned brown in the firing!
Yeah, some of the stains don't do cone 6 so well. 🤷
Thanks on the flowers! I'll work on a tutorial once I get past all this glazing!
@@patspotpage lol awesome!!
Loved the flowers on the black clay! And it was great seeing how Colors for Earth did in the black clay. Also, thanks for the shout-out. ❤ That's owl slip trailed was stunning. I'm in love with the butterscotch opal. I need to mix me up a batch of that.
Thanks! The butterscotch is surprisingly stable and seems to play well with others.
Beautiful pots!!!! I love you’re work. Looks like you didn’t get hot enough, the glazes may look better if you get it hotter. How do you keep the kiln outside? Do you live in a warm climate? Thanks for the vidoe!!
Thank you! We have 4 seasons here, but don't typically get a lot of snow. Real winter weather only lasts 2 to 3 months. I keep a cover on Chubs when he's not in use. It's not ideal, but it's what I've got!
@@patspotpage Thats so awesome that you found something that works. I can not imagine not being able to run my own kiln. I love the Name! Lol
So nice that you share the glaze combos. Usually people share commercial glazes but for those who make their own glazes this info is great.
Hi Ann, I'm with you on that! I see great glazing combos, and think, how can I mix that glaze? Commercial glazes are convenient, but expensive...and sometimes limiting. I'm glad you found some value in this. Stay centered!
