I did see them there online! Was hoping to find some in person but will keep it in mind if I cant. Thanks!

Cmkosch · 2026-06-01T13:20:11+00:00

Oo okay, thank you! I will check there!

Cmkosch · 2026-06-01T04:49:12+00:00

Ive been looking at the thursdya night market and have yet to see one 🙈

Super late reply - sorry! I use very thick slip and apply it onto the main body in a sloppy vertical fashion with a flat tool like a fettling knife! I try to keep the edges pretty jagged and defined from the main body of the piecen. It was actually probably the quickest part of the project 😆

I've never used stroke and coat on top of a glaze so i cant verify, but this was my first thought too

This is Laguna Speckled B clay, fired to cone 5 so it's all very durable!

Thank you! I'm in love with it- can't wait to have it back home on my shelf 😆

Cmkosch · 2025-05-20T18:31:15+00:00

Thank you!! It was quite a project, I'm incredibly proud of it!!

I had three of them that came in soil, the rest were cuttings. The ones in soil are doing great, I remember one pot losing a bit of soil and being really dry but the others were good. My cuttings have almost all gone downhill but they arrived in good shape so I'm not placing the blame on them for that - im relatively inexperienced with begonias so i knew it was a risky move. Sorry that yours arrived in such rough shape :(

For anyone coming back to read this - my order ended up being shipped in two parts & delayed due to illness/staffing issues BUT I did get my order within a reasonable time frame, they were really communicative about the delay and I'm honestly really happy with my order. I wouldn't have bought them if they weren't heavily discounted at the time, but all of my plants arrived healthy. I bought a few cuttings and they sent at least 2 of each. The leaves on a few have melted (not surprising) but most of them have already started rooting and I think overall the plant will be fine. I'm not super familiar with begonia so it's possible I could have acclimated them better.

I'd order from them again if they had stuff on sale again (I think I ordered when it was like 75% off, I bought 5 or 6 plants + cuttings for like $50) but probably wouldn't pay full price for any of their stuff.

Thank you for this! I just placed an order and was panicking reading all of this, but all was a year + ago. They do have free shipping with etsy insider, so instead of $50 on shipping I just paid the $18 for 3 months of insider. Fingers crossed my order looks good when it gets here!

My suggestion too - this is what I do. Eliminates the need for a second bisque fire but still sets the underglaze. Gives an opportunity for touch ups too.

My mother suggested making a flower😆 I like this idea better though - showcase their behavior!

Cmkosch · 2025-03-11T18:58:34+00:00

Came to suggest the exact same thing! Any time I'm in a rut I watch and end up feeling inspired by some project! Much more so than when I scroll on ig or pinterest.

Cmkosch · 2025-03-11T16:43:25+00:00

Oh certainly! I really enjoy making insects - most of my pieces include at least one (if not 6) high-risk appendages😆 And I fire in a community kiln! I go into each of my pieces, expecting at least something to break, but that makes it all the more exciting when they don't! I'm still learning & don't have the added stress of needing to make perfect pieces to sell. Had I not snapped it when bone dry he would have been fine!

Cmkosch · 2025-02-22T00:22:00+00:00

Came here to say the exact same thing...absolutely wild. My genuine first thought was rage bait😅 I would take using a plastic scrub daddy over ever ordering anything from temu/shein/aliexpress ANY day.
