    An alternative to cling film are those green biodegrable bags that we use for foodwaste. They work just like clingfilm but of course are environmentally friendly.

    I’m a little late to the party - but I just love your design! (I can bear the music because your work is lovely) tumble drier sheets are good for under the clay also - and you can use them again and again xx ❤

    • @PaulaArmstrongCeramics
      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  3 роки тому +2

      Decorating slips generally stay very close to the colour they go on but it's worth checking. I have a brown slip that paints on a reddish colour. They will also alter slightly if you put a transparent glaze on top. They tend to darken slightly. Hope that helps ☺️

      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  4 роки тому +1

      Hi. Yes 😊 It was bisque fired to 1000C as it's stoneware clay. I then glazed the inside with transparent gloss glaze to show the slip colours. The outside I glazed in a matt turquoise then it was fired again to 1200C to finish it.

    Is that glaze slip you are adding?

    • @PaulaArmstrongCeramics
      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  5 місяців тому

      No, it's coloured decorating slips which are basically clay watered down with a coloured stain in it. They don't vitrify like a glaze rather they act the same as the clay body.

    Great tutorial. how do you make the slip?

    • @PaulaArmstrongCeramics
      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  2 роки тому

      Thanks. I bought these decorating slips but you can make coloured slip by mixing clay with water and coloured mason stains. It's best made with a smooth clay as grog makes a sandy textured surface.

      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  8 місяців тому

      Absolutely, reusing is always good ☺️ I've since started using the compostable bags used for food waste instead of the plastic wrap and it seems to work just as well and makes me feel a bit better 😁

    hello there, thank you for the video. new to pottery. does it matter what temperature to fire slip?

    • @PaulaArmstrongCeramics
      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  Рік тому +1

      The slip fires to the same temperature as the clay you're decorating. You do need to make sure that the slip you use is ok to fire at the clay firing temperature but they tend to have a very wide firing range. You only use slips on greenware before firing the clay generally thanks to the shrinkage that happens during firing. 😊

      Yes, normally you would fire, glaze it (with transparent glaze over the coloured slip decorated sections) then fire again to glaze. ☺️ temperature.

    I enjoyed watching the video, but when you would switch back and forth between you talking and the music , the music was so much louder that I would have to continually adjust the volume up and down which kind of drove me crazy after a while. Other than that I really did enjoy your video and subscribed.

    Is the liquid you poured mud? What paint did you put in this liquid?

    • @PaulaArmstrongCeramics
      @PaulaArmstrongCeramics  3 роки тому +1

      Hi. The liquid is decorative coloured slip which is watered down clay with clay stains as pigment to add colour. You can make your own from the clay you use for making (add water and ceramic stain to some dried out clay pieces, leave it to soak then mix) but I admit that I tend to buy them premixed for consistency.

      I can certainly agree that I love the bowl, enough that I may try doing my own version. Thank you.

      I have made the same observation regarding UA-camrs and music. I have asked many of them what they feel the music is supposed to add to the video, and no one has given me a real answer. Unfortunately, when folks are new at making UA-cam videos, they are often not good at balancing the music volume and the speech volume. At least in this video she wasn't playing the music the whole time and making it hard to understand what she was saying.

      Here's a share for you. I started doing Friday night kiln opening parties. Put out some snacks. A little wine. I show videos of the stuff in the kiln being made. Pictures of what it looked like when it went in. I have had 6 of them this winter. At 2 of them I sold everything in the kiln and then some. Plus, I got to socialize a little. I always want to finish the sales before my second glass of wine. Lol no use tempting the fates.
