I always find it so relaxing watching you work 😊
aw thank you! 😊
I can’t believe at long last I managed to get a mug! Now for the wait from the postman!
I appreciate the situation, of technical difficulties that always arise coming up to my deadlines. You do such a good job not falling to pieces with frustration and finding a way to move forward. Love and light!!!
I've had a lot of practice with things not going as planned through the years which has definitely made me more resilient! I'm never totally unshaken though 😂 thank you so much for watching! 💗
lovely vlog as always ☺️✨
thank you so much for watching! 💗
I miss your videos ): 💕
I’ll be back!!! 💗 needed some time away 🥹
Hi! Love your vlogs! I have two questions: where is your black tank top from? And totally unrelated, what causes a kiln to not go up to the desired cone temperature?
omg a fellow albertan?! I saw you mentioned "Jasper" and I had to check where you're living right now! hi!!!
ahh yes I’m in Calgary!!! hiiiii 🥰
Hello!
New subbie here! I've been searching for ceramics based vlogs and I stumbled upon your channel. I've since been bingeing my way through your videos and I just wanted to say ho and that I love your style, your ceramic style, your vlogging style...everything! It's just what I was looking for. I'm a new potter, and have just started selling my first ever batch of ceramic pieces, it's gone really well but I want to develop more by using different clays and glazes. I'm wondering if you could do a video chatting about the clay and glazes you use, and just your general process. I used underglazes on my pieces, and although it came out okay I'm wondering if I'll get a better finish by painting my underglaze onto greenware - do you do this? because I noticed you sponging down your pieces before clear glazing and firing and I'm sure that would have washed off all my underglaze if I did that so I'm wondering if you paint onto greenware?
Anyways, sorry for the long comment!

Wonderful video, always a pleasure to watch! Just wondering, which underglaze pencil is it that's been giving you a hard time? I just got the chrysanthos pencils in black and blue and look forward to trying them! But a sample will take a month to get fired where i'm at and would like just to go ahead and use them on a few pieces:"-) Would you happen to know how this line holds up at cone 6? I'd appreciate any advice on how to use the pencils!
I have the same brand and the blue and black work great, I’ve just had some trouble with the green showing up in the final firing!
also thanks for watching! 🥰
Hi , I was wondering how do you get the speckled effect on your clay??
it’s the clay itself that’s speckled! but you only see the speckles once you fully fire it to cone 6 :-)
Why not refiring them?
I did end up re-firing them but didn’t have enough time to do so in time for them to be ready for the market!! 🥰
