I watch a TON of pottery/ceramics videos and I rate your creativity and glazes at the top! Please keep making videos! Would love to see some process videos as well 🤩 In one or more of these you have shown what you call a “barrel” mug that is slip cast. Do you happen to know where I can find such a mold?
@RedEftDesigns4 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! I plan to make process videos at some point but life always gets in the way! The barrel mold was a vintage one, I got it on ebay but the availability of any mold is so based on just what people are selling at the moment, so I can only say to keep your eye open on there. If I ever see any I will let you know. But it is kind of tiny, especially the handle part, and hard to hold. There are some great molds on etsy though, good shapes and easy to pour. Shipping for a mold is usually 30-60 so that's the main expense since they are so heavy. Hope this helps!

Thanks Kathy! From a leatherhard coil I used a scalpel to facet the sides into 6 and the tip into a point ( also 6). Then connected them to a base and sprinkled a few scrap pieces from the scalpel faceting around the base. I plan to do a video of it someday soon!

Hey Amanda, fun opening! Love the frogs! Love the baby bump photobomb! I adore that 'ocean' pitcher! Can I ask, did the storm go all over first, THEN Seaweed, Oatmeal and snow?

Hi Audrey! Yes, the storm is all over in& out. Then seaweed top third, then oatmeal over the seaweed on the rim. But a space between where the seaweed ended and the line of snow was. The snow I have is verrrry thick so I just globbed it on with my finger. The seawwed/oatmeal ran and was kinda stopped by the snow. Thank you! It's less than a week now! So excited!

A lot of the dripping glazes look like someone simply did not follow directions. Yours are very striking. I do not know how you apply to control the flowing distances but you seem to have it mastered. I am just hand building and using non dripping glazes from Amaco. I do look at a lot of youtube to learn though. Thank you for taking the time to put your items here for us to admire.

Thanks for the compliments! I suppose i should make a live glazing video someday. Its a combination of testing/observation but also of knowing how each glaze is going to react with others...i take a LOT of notes on combos i see online. It may be also that I'm doing thick layers but only firing to cone5. Handbuilding is the best! I do that, and some slipcasting but no wheel work.

Cool technique and glazing on that first plate! Looks like real cedar embeded into it :). The emeral falls and reactive red are just gorgeous on that clay! I have some of those wooden India stamps too! I love them...nice bowls. How many coats on the Rootbeer on the buffalo? I love when that result happens but I think I use too many coats and maybe it needs to be on texture? Nice mushroon jar but the Honey Bee altar is my fav! So cute! Great job! Happy New Year Amanda😊
@RedEftDesigns6 ай бұрын
I love the cedar plate too im thinking of making a set! I did a few coats of the rootbeer, at least 3. I know its usually SO runny forme but maybe the cone 5 kept it more tame. I previously used it on a honeycomb texture and loved it so yeah i think it needs texture to shine! Haha yeah im addicted to stamps at the moment, i tried doing other plant impressions, like a fern but they just got lost under the glaze so i think the stamps give a great, even, deep but not too deep impression that turns out well with glaze. Wooden stamps are my fav the 3d printed ones are cool but more difficult to get a clean even impression. Thanks for the compliments, happy new year!
