- Welcome back to another exciting episode of "Studio Life." In this video, I'm diving into the world of brand new glazes that have taken the ceramic community by storm. Join me as I experiment with the stunning Mayco Crystal Glazes in Peppered Plum and Amaryllis, as well as the amazing AMACO Potters Choice Flux glaze in Flux Blossom.
Summer brought with it a wave of eagerly anticipated glaze releases, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on them all. Unfortunately, supply hiccups have made it a bit of a treasure hunt. But fret not! I managed to snag a few of them and in this video I share how I layer them together to create some STUNNING GLAZE COMBOS. By following my step-by-step tutorial even a beginner pottery enthusiast will have success with the layering techniques I showcase in this video. I'm sure you will all agree that these beauties will be soon lining your home pottery studio shelves too.
Get ready to witness the transformation of my bisque pieces as I take you from brush to kiln. I offer you tips and tricks that I use to apply crystal glazes to ensure an amazing ceramic glaze finish. You get to see first hand my first impressions of these captivating ceramic glazes when I end the video with a kiln opening and I share all the glaze details in the stunning photo recap.
While I was only able to secure a limited selection this time around, I'm determined to get my hands on the rest of the new glaze collection. As soon as I can lay my fingers on those elusive shades, I'll be right back here, sharing my findings and experiences with you.

Beautiful cups like watching your videos thanks for sharing with us all.
Thank you sooo much!! 🥰
Really like the pink glaze combinations.
Thank you sooo much Katherine!! 🥰
Great how you gave a shout out to Hobble Creek Pottery (One of my fav TH-camrs) and Soul Haven Pottery. Nice to share the love 💌
Hi Tegan! Thank you!! I really want to share... everything, which also means sharing and and supporting other YT'ers because it's a lot of work!! 🤪 I'm sooo happy with this growing community and I love learning and growing and paying it forward to you all! xo
Hey all..I'm over in the 'chat' area so hope you'll say hello and let me know where you're from!
I'm from lebanon I saw a tip somewhere about pinholes u should rub the holes of the bisque fired clay after u glaze them if u see any
Sorry Lisa! The chat ends on its own when the video finishes the premiere! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Rose Quarts and pinholes..I was wondering if it was the clay or the application..etc. any hoo! I missed getting back to the kiln for a hold which i think would have smoothed out! Anyway it was lovely chatting with you!
Just discovered your video. I will be watching and learning. Thanks.
Welcome to the community and Thank You!!
thanks for this lovely video. I found you searching for pink glazes. I'm on a mission to find the perfect pink glaze. This was a great help and your mugs are beautiful :-)
Glad it was helpful and Thank you very much!! 🥰
Amazing x
🤭🥰
Thank you! I think my fav was the amaryllis and flux.
I was pretty stoked with that too🤩...I'll definitely apply more of the crystals at the top next time and coax more of the large speckling out. 💕
Amazing ❤
Thank you!!! 💕
I love your mugs 😂
Thank you!! 🥰💕
Sweeeeeet💖
Thank you!
Awesome results! And thanks for the shout out. Those underglaze transfers get addicting, but oh so much fun. We just have the best jobs!
I had great results with the rose quartz by layering winter woods under the rose quartz and pearl white on the rim.
I love how we are growing such a creative pottery community on TH-cam! ❤
You said it perfectly!! Best Jobs EVAH!! One Walton to another!! And thanks for suggestion with the WW and PW! I'm going to try that!! I've got some mugs needing some glaze so I'm going to put this combo to use!
You're right again! This YT Pottery Community that is growing in leaps and bounds and is just Awesome!! I love all the love everyone is giving! The encouragement and suggestions blows me away at times!! Oh and I'm so glad to hear that your husband has the green light in his healing!!! xo
@@SarahWaltonPottery Yes! The WW, PW, rise quartz combo gets runnyat a cone 6.
@@hobblecreekpottery thanks for the heads up!
I just ordered underglaze transfers 2 days ago, can't wait to get!!!!!
They are so much fun!! I applied to a couple of pieces off camera to try and figure it out...pretty easy so far! You'll love em!
Let me know which glaze combo is your favourite!!
Hi Sarah,
My name is Liana shouting out from Redding, California. I absolutely love your videos and glaze combinations. Funny thing is I get quite different results when I try your combinations. Probably due to different clay bodies? Pearl white looks great on my black clay, eclipse from Seattle pottery supply. It has a bluish cast if on the thin side and purplish if thicker. My favorite floating Spectrum glaze is Kimchi (pink, orange, and yummy drizzles of whipped cream.
Your mug with Amaryllis is my favorite and I like your black mugs with pink and Archie’s base! Stunning!!!!
Hi Liana!! I love hearing where you all are watching from!! THANK YOU 🥰 I appreciate your kind words and for all of this amazing info!! I've been thinking about getting Kimchi too🤪...clay matters fo-sho eh? (my Canadian is showing..lol) thanks for watching and for sharing! 🥰
Great video. I just ordered some Mayco stoneware glazes...so watching the video was so helpful. Love watching your think process(keep thinking out loud it's so helpful)...the glazing process and then the results. Great results on these cups...stunning! I cannot wait to try too.
Thank you so much Pat!! I'm so sorry it took me so long to respond 😵💫. I love the feedback because I don't always know what is helpful and it seems that this day in age we are all in a rush to get to the answer (myself included) so I often edit that 'brain talk' out. I will reconsider going forward...heck people can fast forward if necessary! Cheers! 🥰
Thank you for the inspiration. ❤ Beautifully made art here.
Thank YOU!!! xo
Hello Sarah, first thing.. we have the same exact glasses, so we both have great taste in glasses!
Lately, I have been using Amaryllis on the interior of my bowls and I love it!!.. I painted 3 coats of Amaryllis over the typical peacock technique of flux 'w's' and any dotted color of stroke and coat. I have been using Mayco coral or pink gloss on the outside of the piece, just a solid, 3 coat overage . So far, my biggest seller because the interior of the bowl looks like a tie dye effect. It is stunning. Make sure to really mix the crystals in the Amaryllis!
Cheers and I just love watching your videos.. you are informative and you make me laugh! Thank you!!!
Hi Carol! 🤓 Glasses Sisters!! Love it!! Your glaze combo sounds just divine! I don't have any of the stroke n coats but have them on my list ...which keeps growing 🤪. (As stated in my vid that I've got an addiction...lol! ) I'm so glad you enjoy my content and shared that with me...hearing from you is very encouraging as it can be daunting at times, and knowing that I inspire or entertain or am just company while someone is working in the studio is so motivational!!! xo
😍😍😍
I really like your mug handles , perfect shape and balance … l’m a handle guy !
Thanks Shawn!! I've filmed how i make these handles , just need to sort it out and get it in a video...no promises of when but it's coming!!! 🥰
Aww, thanks for the shout out Sarah! Amaryllis and the Peppered Plum are the two new glazes I got as well but haven't had a chance to experiment with them much, I'm glad you did and results are gorgeous! I've mostly used flux blossum on the inside, love it as a liner glaze. I think I used it on a peacock technique bowl and it didn't flow at all like the crystal glazes so won't do that again but.....Can't wait for the full kiln unloading!!🥰
Np Starlynn!! I just love how this YT Pottery community is growing and think it's important to lift one another up, sharing info, insights, suggestion and shout outs are always supper helpful! Kiln opening is coming, but I'm behind in the editing as Aug has been a super social month so far...and editing has been on the back burner....but I've got a ton on content to put out! As always, I love hearing from you! 💕
@@SarahWaltonPottery awesome💗
Hi from Sudbury! Great White North Pottery has a beautiful studio we throw in and where I try to replicate some of your gems!
Hi Michele!! I wish it wasn't soo dang far from me because I'd love to visit! Every time i call the staff are soo helpful and friendly!! let them know how grateful I am please!! xo
Nice results Sarah! I've seen mixed reviews on the rose quartz. And, frankly, this is the first time I've seen the peppered plum and amaryllis done where I liked the results. I usually don't care for the splotchiness of those types of glazes...but that's my personal preference. I know many people really like them. I'm so glad your gamble paid off! I can't wait for the full kiln opening! WOOHOO!
Hi Pat! Firstly...Thank you!! ...Someone also said they had some challenges with RQ...but I just love the strawberry /pink colour (not what I was expecting at all)... but really love it minus the pinholes. I'm going to have to experiment with it more so I can find a winning combination or firing schedule, clay body etc. Im editing the kiln opening now, but I've had a busy social calendar this week keeping me both out of the studio and away from my office 🤭🤪 Not complaining...summer in Canada goes by soo dang fast that cottage visits, and bbq, pool parties all seem to take precedence. 🥰
Underglaze transfers are so much fun. I use them only on greenware to get sharp images and usually clear glaze over after bisqued. You'll love them!
Thanks for this advise Sondra!! I've yet to bisques fire them🤞🏼...may i ask if you've tried to leave the stoneware bottoms free from glaze with the transfers? I really like to look of bare stoneware with glaze drips. Any impact that I may need to be aware of? Thanks!
Peppered plum and amaryllis over flux blossom, Wow! Thanks for the heads up Sarah.❤
You are so welcome! This combo is definitely a keeper for me!!
Regarding the pinholing with Rose Quartz: I experience the same thing with Ivy (along with Nimbus, those 3 glazes are the same base). I haven't done a tons of pieces with Ivy yet (planning on more though, really like it and have had some fun unintended results combining it with Amaco celadons), will see if I can figure out how to avoid pinholing in the future. One way or the other it was pretty minimal, barely noticeable with the textured nature of the glaze--would obviously matter more on the inside of a vessel (have just used it on the outside thus far, inside of my mugs were nice thick glossy poured celadons--I like using little stamps at the bottom for a fun "surprise").
And while I'm here--I love your mug handles. I make mine chonky too...I like how they look/feel, added bonus of being easier to work with when attaching (omg mug handles are a pain in the ass lol).
Hi Mary!! Thanks for all this info! Since I've been having so many issues with RQ I've been reluctant to try Ivy and Nimbus for the same reason (tho I just love the colour of them). I have to say that since I've got my new kiln and control the firing so much better, the pinholes haven't been as big a problem for me...but I still need to figure RQ out. I've seen some GORGE results but have yet to have them myself. I will keep practicing, bcuz I just love the colour of it. I totally agree with you about the handles, to me, I just love em! 🥰 Cheers!
The mugs turned out beautiful!!!
Thank you!! I'm still working on the Rose Quarts one...stay tuned!!
Pearl white works amazing on 112! I bought a gallon
I don't think I can get that clay up here (Canada) booo! If someone knows otherwise, let me know...Pearl White is soooo beautiful so I'm just going to have to keep experimenting with the different clays avail. But your suggestion will definitely help someone out who reads these comments! Thank you for sharing!! 🥰
Hello from Colorado! So glad to see you making videos again. Love your glaze combos and work!
Hello Colorado!! Thank you!!! I really appreciate your kind words and encouragement!! Receiving comments is so helpful that I keep at it!! So much work goes into these videos, but it's another creative medium that I'm truly enjoying and I'm glad you are too! 💕💕💕
I'm glad you love pink as much as I do 😂❤
💕💕💕 My passion for pink is growing 🤭
Hello from North Carolina! I love both Amaryllis and Peppered plum mugs. Honey flux is one of my faves so I am looking forward to trying the new fluxes. Also, 🙋♀ I, too, have a glaze addiction 🤦♀ Keep up the great content. I’ve only had my kiln for six weeks. I am so loving it !
Thank you and I'm so glad you enjoy my content!!!
the reveal pics at the end look scrumptious they look like molten ice cream
Thank You Tonie!! I was pretty stoked with they came out of the kiln!! (video coming soon) Love the ice cream reference too! Soooo true!
@@SarahWaltonPottery can't wait but hurry
What gorgeous combos!! I love the shape of those mugs too. The rose quartz can not be applied very thick or it will pinhole. I have had a heck of a time with it. I’m a heavy glazer so I tried only using 2 coats and it works much better. Can’t wait for the kiln opening!!
Thanks you!!! And for the suggestion of less coats is soo helpful! So I'll try 2 coats next time! Summer goes by so fast it seems in Canada that I can't believe that we are nearing the end of Aug...With that said my social calendar kinda took over these last couple of weeks going to cottages and bbq's and pool parties etc. so I behind im my editing!! 😬 but it's coming!! I swear! Love hearing from you!! xo
@@SarahWaltonPottery Same here. I live in Iowa and I do not want to see snow for another couple of years!! Lol. But girl if you have fun things to do, do them!! Have all the fun you can!!
Hola soy de México 🇲🇽🌮
Amo todo lo que haces, estoy tratando de ver como se hacen esas técnicas de glazeado ya que aqui en México no es nada común y no hay quien me enseñe 😢 estoy teniendo paciencia para traducir del inglés al español y poder entenderte, gracias a Dios los comentarios de aquí se pueden traducir. Saludos y bendiciones 😊
Pinholes? Try the Coyote slow cool schedule.
Yes! I've now got a brand new kiln with a digital controller and I can and have been programming and using a slow cool schedule! I have to say it has improved my results IMMENSELY! Thanks for the advise!! 🥰
I didn’t have a good experience with amyrillis. I applied three coats then particles but the piece turned out with thin and streaky color. I might try it again but I didn’t like the color anyway….
Hi Susan, may i suggest that you mix the glaze up thoroughly first and apply instead of adding the crystals at the end, you will probably get a better application and won't end up with all the particles left at the bottom of your pint when you get to the bottom. Hope that makes sense...also, I've seen dramatically different results if it's applied on it's own or in my case, applied on top of another glaze. Personally I like it on top of the Flux as it help the Amaryllis move...let me know if you get better results!! 🥰
I’m from Vancouver Canada and new to pottery. I have been doing it for a year so I still need to perfect so many things but I love this combination of glazes and my favourite one was the second mug it was absolutely beautiful. I see that you’re also from Canada. Where exactly are you from?
Hello my fellow Canadian! I'm from Bowmanville Ontario. Just outside Toronto. Thank you, I think that was my favourite one too!! 😉
@@SarahWaltonPottery where do you get your clay from?
I wonder if the transfer designs works on bisque clay
I believe that you can apply to bisque ware but I think it's better on greenware. more vivid results and crisper lines, but I'll have to try it both ways to see if I have a preference...🤭
What clay do you use?
I use many different clays but in this video I used Pottery Supply House Speckled...I typically list all the clays and glazes in the recaps of my videos so you know where to look for it with other videos...🤭
Are the Flux glazes food safe?
Yes! The are labeled food safe, lead free too!
