So fun to see all the jungle gems! I love your method to fire to 5 with stoneware inside, then 04 for the effects! I like the super bold ones you did, the firecracker, the monet with red, the jazz notes with blue, such good juicy combos! Great opening!

So great to see these examples of Jungle Gems at bisque cone. Thank you for sharing!

oh my gosh, I love the blooming blue and poppy fields mugs, those are so pretty! That was so much fun :)...thanks for sharing the "how to" process and results!!

I'd know Monet's Pond anywhere. It's my favorite! And sending good vibes to Trace!

Hi Nat 👋 so great to see you and to hear Trace too, hope she gets well soon❤ well what can I say you blew my mind with your coordination colours, I would never have thought that I would like those brights but I absolutely love them😊 you really picked out such gorgeous colours. They look so warm and vibrant especially the ones with marigold liners and oh the tangent, I thought I was moving away from celedons now I want them again😅 The one you dis with the power turquoise and the purple ( sorry I don't know jungle jems names) I have just done almost the exact same but with the mayco passionflower on a piece at my community kiln, I love yours but think mine may not be great as I honeydew fluxes the top of it, think it might be a mess😂 yours looks great without the run. Thankyou so much for the shout outs, yes those butterflies are so thin but amazing when they work. What a great start to my day finding your video, I want to go play clay now😊 lots of love to you, Julia xx

You should be so proud! What a lovely kiln load! 🤤Now I need to find room in my glaze cabinet. 😏

Wow!! Took a few days to finish watching. Amazing Pots! The blooming blues and poppy fields are my absolute favorites. So odd how that one really ran!

You and Trace are very fun. I enjoy your videos. ❤ Barbara Mora Wrightwood, CA

Get well soon Trace ❤❤❤❤

I’m soo sorry for taking so long to leave a comment I saw this last week! Sooo many beauties in here! I love the idea of doing the jungle hems after the fact! What a great idea. I’ve never used them before but have seen a few of your videos with them and I’m very interested, but knowing they really melt at ^6 I was a little deterred. So thanks for this!! Hey Trace!! You really are like Charlie in this vide🤭hope you feel better soon!! Sending healing vibes your way! 😘

The butterfly cup is my favourite. Love it. 🥰 I’m so glad I could be remotely there for this amazing unload. Can’t wait to see them in person.

that was a great opening...i luvv jungle gems....the seafoam was the first i bought...soo pretty....and the chip and dip might not be as you invisioned it but it still looks great😉

I can’t believe Tracy is in the hospital!! Prayers your way Tracy!! Nat I can’t believe this is an entire kiln load of jungle gems!! And the way you fire the JG is so amazing!! After the pots were glaze fired was it hard to get the JG to dry since it was already vitrified?

Oh! I loved every one of these. I will be glazing today, so I need to check out which jungle gems I have. Am I correct, you glazed only the inside of the mugs for the 5.5 fire, and then only the outside for the third fire at 04/05? How many coats does it take of the jungle gems to get such pretty blooms? You have inspired me!

Love your results! Such a nice way to make JG functional. So just to clarify, when you fired it to vitrify the clay, they only had stoneware glaze as the liners? The outsides were left bare? So the JGs were applied onto bare, vitrified clay? Thanks for sharing!

Love your videos, they always make me smile. Could I ask how you reglaze/refire? I find it hard to reglaze as it doesn’t adhere well after a firing.

Are these jungle gems glazes fired at cone 5 or 05?
