Hi PerrinPottery. that is so. nice of you. Im so glad you like them. Give it a go. Just take it one step at a time. Good luck 🙂. Ann

[@bellydancingknitter]

Both projects are wonderful, thank you for making these videos.

[@annruel1982]

Hi Bellydancingknitter. That is so nice of you. Im glad you like them. Thanks so much for watching 🙂

[@nickize3146]

@Paintspotsandpaper. That's a pastry mat. Check in kitchen stores. 😊

[@annruel1982]

Thanks Nicki. You are right about that, although you dont have to go to any fancy stores to get one. Your local grocery store might have one hanging up in the gadget section. Look for the plastic mat not the silicone one. Thanks so much for watching the video. I appreciate you. Ann

[@JudyHensley-xn5gu]

BRAVO once again!!! You certainly have a gentle touch! Is that a B Mix clay? Thanks so much for sharing!!!

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Porcelain #365

[@annewatkis5824]

Wonderful tutorial. What clay are you using? Xxx

[@annruel1982]

Hi Anne. thanks so much for watching. I use Standard brand English Porcelain #365. A bit expensive but makes a great canvas to paint on which is my favorite way to decorate.

[@Paintspotsandpaper]

Hi, could you tell me where I can get the mat with the markings on that you roll your clay on? Thankyou so much for sharing, take care xx

[@JohnLowes]

It’s a Wilton pastry mat, I found mine at a Hobby Lobby, but most any store that has a wide selection of kitchen equipment should have one.

[@Paintspotsandpaper]

@@JohnLowes Thankyou so much, does the clay stick to it at all or do you use baking powder on it first?❤

[@annruel1982]

@@Paintspotsandpaper If the clay is fresh but not too "slaked down or wet and sticky "then you should be fine with it not sticking. if the clay is too sticky, you should probably not be using it yet for your hand building project. Let it dry out a little then give it a go. Actually that is probably a good test for whether or not your clay is ready for using.....whether or not it sticks badly to the plastic pastry mat :-). Good luck

[@Paintspotsandpaper]

@@annruel1982 Thankyou ❤

[@lauravergeer3992]

Q : does the mug not get to heavy?
I like the glaze and te underglaze off te mugs 👋

[@annruel1982]

Hi Laura. Thanks for the kind words. The clay is 1/4 inch thick like every other mug, and I beveled all the edges even making some cutouts which eliminated more clay. Also there is no handle like a normal mug. When I pick it up, I dont notice much of a change to my usual mugs. Perhaps a little but nothing too noticeable. Jim and I really appreciate you watching :-)
