Hi MaryJean. Thank you so much! 💖
Thanks Marie. Love your presentation. Not sure how you find the time to make thoughtful and accurate presentations. Kudos to you for building the community.
I would add using a slab mat while using your slab roller. I’ve incorporated this into my “tool set” as it reduces the grain marks from my canvas.
Wow, thank you Janet! Yes that is a great tip. I did think of that one. My friend uses a slab mat and really likes it. 💖

I have a question…can we color the clay before fired?! If the clay is completely dry??
Or what is the full process after the clay is dry?!
And your channel is really helpful❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Very good question. Yes you can underglaze it the same as you would if it were bisque fired. Just be mindful that the clay is at it's most fragile state and be careful when handling it. I think you may find this post helpful potterycrafters.com/applying-underglaze-on-greenware-vs-bisqueware/ 💖
Nice ❤
Thank you 😊
Can you try old potters air dry clay, activa supreme air dry clay, and craft smart air dry clay on the wheel soon
Thank you for the suggestion. I will see if I can ASAP. 😊
@@PotteryCraftersdid you order the clays bc i haven’t seen you upload any videos yet
Thank you for asking. unfortunately I will not be able to get it until after Clay Con West. in the middle of January. My schedule is so full right now. 😊 Have a wonderful New Year!
Hi Mary!!!! i wanted to ask you ... is black and grey clay ok to make mugs because of the manganese in them ? thank you MAry for letting ask you some many questions and always answering .
Thank you. That is a good question. Yes it is ok 😊
I want to make jewelry but I don't know which clay to pick. Someone mentioned white B-Mix low firing clay.
Yes, Laguna B-Mix Cone 06 Clay is a choice and shrinkage rate only 5% 😊
What exactly does the hold at the end do? Eg if it is 5' or 10' minutes?
That is a very good question. The 5 minute hold ensures the kiln is a the same peak temperature before shutting down. The 10 minute hold ensure the same peck temperature and also helps the glaze to heal.
A cone 5 with a 20 minute hold does the same plus is equal to a cone 6 firing. I will do a cone 5 with a 20 minute hold when I want the glaze to flow more. 😊
@@PotteryCrafters some glazes run too much as a result of which it reaches the base and the ceramic sticks. I had a 10' hold at 1210 celsius and took it down 1990C to a 5' hold. I use amaco, mayco glazes.
Thank you for responding!
That's smart to make the adjustments you need. Happy Glazing!
