Natural glazes…

Bored with refining clay (!), I decide it’s time to turn my attention to making some natural glazes. First, I need to make some small bowls to do tests in. They need to be bowls, not tiles, because I have no idea how much the glazes is going to run in the firing and don’t want to wreck my kiln. I want to make the bowls quickly so I put some clay discs into a cupcake baking tray (this won’t be missed from home as I’m totally rubbish at making cakes!). After quickly drying them on top of a kiln I pop them in my other kiln to be bisque fired. I’m really looking forward to starting glaze experiments, hopefully I can begin tomorrow…
