Glazes

Today on the Bailey blog, we've got a video that shows how we make two unique wheel-thrown vases. Also in the video, our friend Kelli from Hops Petunia Floral demonstrates creating two gorgeous arrangements. You won't want to miss this video. It's blooming with tips for how you can create one-of-a-kind flower vases and arrangements at home.

Today on the Bailey Blog we'll show you how to create ceramic animals! In this five minute video we'll demonstrate making an animal figurine from start to finish. You'll see how we do everything from forming the clay to applying glaze and firing in a test kiln. And, we'll be sharing our material choices with you so you can be ready to put this project to use with your class or at home! This project would be excellent for children or young adults. We hope you enjoy! 

"I find the frustrating part with ceramics is also the exhilarating part. All could be lost in the kiln if a glaze doesn’t work out, or if something was too wet or too dry. It doesn’t happen often but it is also the addicting part — that moment of opening the kiln is like Christmas morning! Did all my hard work pay off? Did something exciting happen that I wasn’t expecting?

Tania Rustage's photos on Instagram @taniarustageceramics capture the charm of her whimsical ceramics with attitude. Tania uses commercial glazes, underglazes, and stains; sponging, brushing, dipping or spraying them to get the effects she wants. She generously shares before and after pictures of the glazing process on Instagram.
