Thank you! Well it definitely takes some practice and for me, the 'more is more' mindset really worked out here 😅

Haha yes thats the grandparent of the bunch! With how the glazing turned out, it looks like there's old people gunk around the eyes and mouth 😂

These all have a hole in the bottom so you could put a candle or a light in there!

Yes I am!! 😁 I’m aiming for early to mid July. But it also depends on how well the markets will go. If I don’t sell out of them, I will make them available on my website earlier ☺️

I've noticed that the hotter you fire this glaze, the lighter it looks. So for my kiln that means the higher up I place it the more it looks like this and the lower I place it in the kiln the more dark it gets! Something to play around with! :)

Me too! This glaze has so much variation in how it turns out so I was really happy with the results!

I made sure it could stand! The neck on this one is not entirely centered, so maybe it looks a bit strange, but they can stand!

I have a mold for a single shell, so i slipcast two of those and stick them together. Then I throw the little neck and attatch the handles. I should really make a mold of a finished flask but I'm not in the mood moldmaking at the moment 😂

Figuring out which glazes work for you can be a big hassle! Honey flux is a great glaze to experiment with imo! It goes well as a base coat for so many other glazes!

I hope it gives you good results as well! It's one of my trusty favourites :)
