Pottery has become one of my favourite hobbies and I am super excited to share it with you. This video shows the whole process from a chunk of clay to a finished plate. Everybody can do it, this was actually one of my first tries as well. Plus, it's the perfect lockdown activity. So what stops you from trying it?
With the tips and tricks that I share in this video, I am hoping to help you with creating imperfectly perfect plates yourself. 🖤
Please note that I am self taught and am very happy about any tips and tricks you might have for me!

What pottery do you want to see me doing next? 🧡
Are these plates healthy for food ?
"at home"
Her: goes to pottery lounge
please be careful when sanding bone dry greenware (or any clay) it creates silica dust which can cause silicosis. You need to wear an N95 mask (or just smooth out with a sponge before it is completely dry!). also make sure you always clean up, especially if you are doing ceramics in your house, you don't want to leave any dust around
Pour 3 pots ils vont choper la silicose ? 🤣🤣🤣
@@nathaliebertrand8021 it is important to mention if you are encouraging people online to work with clay at home. ceramics can be very dangerous if you don't take the proper safety measures
thank you so much for the hint! your comment is very valuable :) I actually didn't even know about the dangers!
@@AlinaS08 some good advice from Nadia. Inhalation of clay dust is the biggest hazard in the pottery workshop. I would recommend avoiding sanding the plates altogether and use a damp sponge when they are hard enough to handle without distorting. Also when you clean up, I always tell my students to wipe down surfaces with a damp sponge. Never brush dry clay up as it will get up into the air.
Curious to know, if it’s dangerous, would they be ok to eat on? Or no
hey dear! pls be careful when sanding unfired clay! the dust is toxic and can attach to your clothes! it’s best to sand them after they’ve been fired
True! Always wear a professional mask (in any stage,bone dry/bisque/fired) so you don’t inhale silica...no "corona masks" 😷 they are not good enough for this micro dust. Silica will kill you over time
hi! may i know will it be the same with non toxic clay used to make ceramics? are these two and in the video the same type? thank you ^^
@@wasilahsaarithe problem isn’t a toxic chemical reaction in your lungs that’ll kill you, it’s the airborne dust itself. That’s part of why asbestos cancer is a thing. So even if it’s non-toxic dust, it’ll still be bad for your lungs.
Just wear a particle filtration mask. Preferably an actual respirator rather than a disposable mask as the respirator should provide a much better seal.
What about if you’re carving dry-ish clay? Still bad?
@@kikko422 if it’s dry enough to create dust then it’s bad! always best to carve when the clay is leather hard
I've seen a few people comment that there's no facilities for firing pottery where they live. I'd recommend looking for local potters and enquiring about hiring a kiln for a firing. It could be additional income for them and you're supporting a local craftsperson.
The plates are beautiful. They are not perfect , they are extraordinary 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Omg! i loved the way you present. loved your channel..thanks for this amazing video
ua-cam.com/video/uOXtKXSKKIQ/v-deo.html
The video is shockingly beautiful 🤍
thank you so much ♥️
Thank you for the video!❤️
What a gorgeous video!!!
Beautifully shot and presented. :)
Nice video, but this is not pottery at home when you have to take them to a pottery lounge
ua-cam.com/video/uOXtKXSKKIQ/v-deo.html
Click bait this is not at home
They will be very rough in the bottoms, May scratch tabletops, what do you recommend to do on bottoms once fired?
You can sand the bottoms once they are glazed and fired
I'd rather use a placemat, I love the roughness of them. Tablecloth would work too if you don't want to sand.
Cinematography is on point
I would suggest not lifting the wet plates like that as they will be more prone to warping as they dry. Perhaps make them on wooden bats so they can be moved easily. Nice video though
thank you very much for this hint! definitely makes sense - I will try next time. :)
@@AlinaS08 If you check out clay memory you'll probably find a far better explanation of it.
Imperfecty perfect..exactly..
Such a beautiful video!! Do you use the go pro to get such smooth images or a stabilizer on your Sony camera?
thank you so much! this video was shot on both my old panasonic gh5 and my new sony a7s iii. both have amazing in body stabilization, that's why the video turned out pretty smooth :)
Well shot and we'll editted...matching soundtrack....it's hundreds🥊🥊🥊🤺🤺🤺
I’m confused. When do we sand? I’m thinking about making simple boho chargers for my wedding next year. Fire and then sand or sand when wet?? 🤨🤨
oh it's an advertisement
I wish i know how 2 do ceramics & 2 know how 2 make plates, bowls & cups but i need me a class so that i can learn some ceramics
As a fellow potter, I really enjoyed this
thank you very much! ❤️
Wonderful video and presentation! I love the wobbly appearance of the plates, it's beautifully obvious they're handmade ♡
A little tip for you: dry your plates to at least leather-dry before you move them. They will be solid enough that you can move them without them flopping in your hands like pizza dough haha :D
thank you so much! this really means a lot 😍 and thank you for the tip - I will definitely let them dry next time. I'm always super anxious when moving the pieces 😅
From one aspiring potter to another: no problem! Looking forward to seeing more of your work ^^
💓
Ich konnte den Wien Vibe einfach fühlen! Tolles Video!
gurl we cant do the entire process at home
"at home"
Her: goes to pottery lounge
hi. What kind of clay did you use and where did you buy it? I'm also in Austria
I bought the clay at gerstäcker in vienna, here are the links to them: www.gerstaecker.at/GERSTAECKER-Tonmasse-weiss-fein-schamottiert.html (white without spots) & www.gerstaecker.at/Tonmasse-WMS-2502-creme-mit-Spots-feinst-schamottiert.html (white with spots) :) have fun!
Very pretty but not really 'at home'
I thought I was going it learn how to make everything start to finish at home but you still had to go to a store to access a kiln so this video is a bit misleading
hey! I totally see your point. Maybe the title is a bit misleading for that matter. however, please remember that in order to have dish washer safe, durable tableware in the end, the pieces have to be fired at super high temperatures. I don't see the point in investing in a kiln (just yet :P) because it's not only expensive to buy, but also to operate... I hope you can understand this :)
@@AlinaS08 there is no however.... title is misleading to get audience
Beautiful presentation, I can't wait to try this!! Thank you for putting it together!!
Beautiful 😍😍 is there any other way around when it comes to firing? I'm not sure there's such place near where I live 🤗
thank you! 💗 when it comes to pottery used as tableware, I don't think there is a way around the traditional firing at these high temperatures. There are some types of clay, that you can simply let airdry or bake in the oven - however, those are not water-resistant and therefore only suitable for decoration...
Thanks, then I have to leave this carrier aside 😄🥰
You can make a outdor Kiln, its same as pizza oven but you need to fire the Pottery items 12 hours, using a low fire Clay like terra cotta. yeah! not simple, a lot of energy and dangerous. Its better to prepare this in group with a club of potters of same country at first. Or buyin a Little kiln for glass.

@@fransa2 I approached a potter in a nearby town for firing for hire. It's a win win. They make a bit of money and I don't have to travel so far to a kiln.
At what stage then should we use colour to paint them?
Please tell me
I've only ever used air dry clay in my life and I love it
I just love your videos
Thank you for sharing 😊❤️
therapeutic to watch
Enjoyed watching this video
Perfectly imperfect: Wabi Sabi 😊
The video is amazing and your pieces are too!!!
Excellent loved it which clay is that plx guide thanks
😍
,
Beautiful but my accident prone teenager would end up breaking them.😢
beautifuly made video and such a amazing plates you created! :)
O imperfeito mais perfeito!!! MARAVILHOSO!!!!!
For me its not the good way for making plate, but its easy as it and crafting and Buy from artist is so better than buy IT from industrial. :)
Hi lovely, what was the camera you used?
Where is the place of the studio?
How do you prevent your plates from cracking without covering them with plastic ? Aren’t you suppose to allow them to dry slower in order to prevent cracking and of course lifting? How did you get it to stay in perfect form after one week of drying ?
It depends on the kind of clay used. Some Clay's dry differently from others.
which clay was it? it turned white after drying
which clay use terracotta or ciramic clay ?
Would the end result be dishwasher safe?
totally! we use them every day - they don't even have any knife marks yet and the best thing is definitely that they're dishwasher safe 😍 just make sure that the pieces are fired at very high temperatures - this way, they are sealed against water and super durable.
can I ask which clay do you use? :-)
sure, we used different ones. the plain one is the 930 by Pottery Passion and the other one is with spots (unfortunately I don't have the number anymore)... they're all suited for high temperature firing :)
are bone dry pieces safe to use for eating or drinking? or do i need some kind of finish/varnish first? pls help
Bone dry needs to fired in the kiln. Then glazed with food safe glaze and fired again. Varnish is not food safe. Bone dry is the next stage after leather hard. If wet it, it will go back to clay and be reclaimed.
They're beautiful
Great 😛
Wet sand!!!!!
can I ask which colours / glazing you used? xo
sure, I used botz white glaze for stoneware (here's a link to it: amzn.to/3vasb3a) - have fun creating :)
Is the Botz color suitable for eating and drinking ?
So relaxing! I´m so much into this videos!!!
Another very misleading video ! Catchy title ! Do it at home but take it to your local pottery......common
I mean what do you expect? Unless you buy a kiln or are willing to fire them in a pit, you can’t exactly do pottery at home.
@@JBoney-bi8lh I expect non misleading title
@@_pronounced_ The title didn't explicitly say the entire process was at home, the making of the pieces, glazing and drying was indeed at home. But it really doesn't matter because it's your problem you thought pottery could be fired in any home. I mean what would you gain from this person not firing it at home? I am assuming you are wanting to do this? Well, sorry sweetie but unless you want to build a big pit fire or buy a kiln... it is not going to happen. Useful plateware is not going to be fired in an oven or airdry. Maybe you didn't know this, but now you should.
@@JBoney-bi8lh i am first not you sweety 😘 second NO I HAD NO IDEA SO title is MISLEADING smart arse 😉😊
@@_pronounced_ That comment makes no sense but ok.
They work!
Just beautiful
Beautiful 🤩
soooooo schön!!!!!!! liebe Dein video
dankeschön :) ♥️
Bellissimi ....
air bubbles do not make pottery explode, moisture makes pottery explode
Air trapped in pottery will explode it at the piece shrinks and the air does not
Air bubbles will absolutely cause pottery to explode lol? Thats the first thing you should learn about clay. Hence why wedging is important and taught thoroughly. I don't know about this "popping airbubbles" with a tool.
Richtig schön!
Can i use air dry clay to make this plates?
No. Air dry clay is for decorative use only. It is no use for functional pottery.
@@jonfisher9214 thanks
Are these dishwasher safe?
They should be but the glaze will get matte over time.
This is beautiful!
Super geil!
All I need is kiln access.... no one I know has one.... and we don’t really have potteria’s here.
unfortunately in order to have durable tableware in the end, it is necessary for the pieces to be fired at very high temperatures... however, there is the option to "bake" pottery in your oven - please note that your pieces will not be waterproof in the end, so it is not suitable as tableware ... decorational pieces for your flat however would turn out really nice!
Can I put the pieces in the kiln with the glaze already after drying for a week (only one burn)?
Hi! :) You have to get your pieces fired once before glazing. So in total you need two firings, if you want to glaze them!
Yes you can do raw glazing! :)
@@evekumari thank you! That’s good to know - I wasn’t aware that was possible 😊
There is a great reason we bisque fire, at 04, it helps release the gasses...if you glazed greenware and went straight to whatever (we glaze at cone 6) cone you glaze at, the major drawbacks are glaze that has pinholes, or glaze not staying on your piece. It's the preferred way to do pottery, make, dry, bisque fire, glaze and fire.
how much did it cost to rent the kiln?
at Potteria in Vienna, you pay around 16€ per kg (weighed once it's finished firing) - for both the first firing and the glaze firing :)
This video is to beautiful for UA-cam.. it’s a work of Art including all the beautiful pieces made!!
ohh thank you so much! this really means a lot - glad you liked my video 😍
@@AlinaS08 I love ceramics and watching your video was on another level. Please continue with more videos like this 👏🏼
Another "diy" that requires professional services. Ugh!
Kilns are expensive. It’s cheaper to use a pottery barn unless you have the $$$ for your own 🤍
C'est moooooche !
Ah bah c'est bien la peine de prendre le temps de commenter, pour dire ça😏
OK, now show us how to make plates that don't look like complete ass
this is unnecessary & rude. many people like the imperfect handmade look, if you like a perfect looking plate you can easily pick them up mass produced at any store on the cheap
Great video, why do we need this late night erotica cheesy music?
I think your comment's unnecessary
