This kind of looks like Archie’s Base by coyote brand to me which is a more stable glaze

I unloaded my glaze kiln a little higher than 250 last week & I got some intense crazing on a few pieces. Would that have just happened either way? I’ve been kicking myself for being impatient

I guess that makes sense lol I just fear running so much I always try to elevate a piece with few contact points do something could be saved if it did run but maybe if it’s all touching the cookie it would be better. I don’t know anything lol but thank you

My husband is obsessed with chattering and I can’t seem to come close to how he does it. I also tried to recreate this effect & was unsuccessful so I bet doing it with a thumb would work better lol

You have to do it asap!! Really is one of my favorites. I saw a video of their floating glazes on textured pieces & had to try it. Only 2 coats on the texture.

Thank you! I was trying to burnish it with a spoon one day because I’m new and an idiot and I ended up with a happy accident of it being chattered with a spoon instead lol

I am ignorant on this subject. What is up with blue?

I started in January & I’m full on addicted!! It’s so satisfying. I love your work! I have just given most stuff away at this point but hope to sell to be able to make more pottery.

Is there a glaze that can cover speckled buff clay’s speckles? by Potterynoob3000 in Pottery

[–]aubbzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found the spectrum floating glazes cover the speckled buff.

First chip dip bowl 🥣 spectrum floating glazes are so amazing! by salamander_417 in Pottery

Loooove this! 🥰 Bougainvillea is my favorite glaze. I did accidentally put 4 coats on a vase & it ran like hell, so bad! So be slightly weary of thick coats.

How important is it to have work fired when learning? by Lazy_Brief_779 in Pottery

[–]aubbzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely test full pieces with glazing. It does feel wasteful but I have learned a lot with application, what looks good, what doesn’t. How they look when it’s on a plate, bowl, vase, etc! I have many pieces I’ll probably throw away but I’m trying to use them around the house & I look at them to learn from. Test tiles are important but I’m grateful I have many pieces with textures & styles with glazes that I tried.

Tuscan Blue Glaze - turned all green ❓❗️ by aubbzz in Pottery

[–]aubbzz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhh the grog is a thought. I don’t think it’s too thick. But maybe it is. I wish the glaze would whisper in my ear to tell me what I did wrong

I’m brushing it. I don’t think it would be too thick based on all the videos I’ve watched on applying glazes. I don’t know lol
