Beautiful as always! You are the Mr (Mrs) Rogers of pottery!! 🤩👍🏽🥳🙋🏻♀️💪🏽💯💗🙏🏽
Thank you! That's such a wonderful compliment!
@ you are a treasure!
Great explaining and demonstrating! thank you
Thanks for the reminder!!! …full revolutions
Thank you from Flanders❤😊
Thank you!!
Thank you Sarah, this is helpful. It's great to see you teaching again!
So. good to see you with clay! Thank you for this lesson today.
Wow! This is so helpful. Thank you!
How do you get the bisque dust out of the bottle before glazing? Do you put water inside? I would think that would take a long time to dry out. Or do you just not worry about any dust inside?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I very much like your teaching style. Thank you.
Im a little confused - the khaki glaze was over the entire piece but it didn't fire because of the wax? Is the color of the unfired khaki what we're seeing where it was waxed?
No if you look at the fired pieces you se that there are glace in the pattern as well. She used Kaki over the whole piece. Then she put wax on in a pattern and dip it in another glace. The wax protect so the pattern doesn’t get the new glace , only the first (Kaki). At least that what I understand. The wax doesn’t protect from fireing it protect from getting the glace on. She shows that she remove som drops of the second glace on the wax but leave some. If she doesn’t remove there will be drops of the new glace in the final result too.
Good to hear you up beat!
Unbelievable. 😔
Heartbroken for you 😢 so much work, money and hours lost
but what does “hold center” mean 😭 my throwing teacher says the same thing and i feel like there’s a secret code i’m just not understanding
God bless you❤❤ stay strong
Heartbreaking losses, but you're amazing! You inspire a strong recovery and will thrive again!
the pot up in the ceiling is amazing!!!
So sorry for your losses!!
Sarah you and the Village Potters are such a gift to the clay community. And even in the face of this tragedy, you are still able to find the words to inspire us to come up a little higher in our faith, our hope, and our attitudes. I'm looking forward to the "rebirth" of The Village Potters and the rich teaching environment it provides.
OMG, I am so sorry...😢
You have a fantastic outlook! Wishing you the best!
or perhaps a small stool like the ones you have with doctors appointment a round circular stool. to sit and do the work with a small table next to the set up ? Its a nice set up.
Can I do this on a handbuilt mug?
Sure you can!
@@sarahwellsrolland5097 It seems like you would be pushing the wall of the mug in soo badly. I can’t wait to try this handle. I woke up thinking about it! Hahaha
MY GOD HOW ON EARTH HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS DONE BEFORE!!!!!!😮❤
Thank you! This was very helpful!
How did you develop your style in pottery ?
beautiful explanation and form! Thank you!
I still struggle with this form for some reason. All my bottles become rainbows. 😂
Mine either end up plates or rainbows 😅
I know this was some time ago for you but thank you for posting this. I have lupus and cant often be on the wheel and never thought larger vessels wpuld ever be possible for me... but you make me rethink that assumption woth this video. Thanks so much! God bless yiu and your talent
Exquisite work, thank you for sharing!!
Well explained 💯 Subscribed 🌸
Stunning !!!
Wow, I don't do pottery but I wanna get to doing this now, and love your video
Thank you! I just got equipment and this was so helpful!
thank you for video
Great video! Now I want to see the finished pots. 😅
Oh my goodness! I totally appreciate this video. Thanks for the information.
can you tell us how thick or thin your wax is? Sometimes my wax peels right off the first glaze layer... too thick? other times it doesn't seem like the 2nd glaze falls clear from the wax design... too thin? thanks!
@@pirro31 I have found wax thickness fit on glazes varies with the wax you are using and the glaze you are putting it on. So, like must things, experiment and keep good notes.
You talk about dipping the item in a glaze for the initial glaze- what is the glaze? It sound like you are saying a "tacky glaze" but I don't know what you mean by that. Your "show transcript" is not working for me, so I can't get the info that way. Please educate me. 😄
Kaki glaze cone 10 reduction
I did not with this one.
Hi Sarah, do you intend to add a squarish lid?
Absolutely gorgeous
So helpful!
Beautiful. I could watch you throw pots all day long.
It's beautiful!!
would you still be able to get a stable cup with even more curves? i love this !!
