Kiln Results 4/25

April 27, 2023

This was a bit of a lighter kiln load than normal. Mostly because I've been making less small things to fit in all the crevices. I need to find a balance between wanting to pack the kiln super tight and making more magnets and trinket dishes than I can possible ever need.

I am absolutely loving how the teapot came out, but I am also rather confused because I used Spectrum's sangria, but it actually looks more like Kimchi or Autumn Purple. I'm not angry at it at all, just perplexed at how it came out.

The sunflower cheese plate came out amazing. It took forever to get 3 good coats all the way up to the petals. This definitely took way more concentration than I'm used to when glazing. The coneflowers refire also really saved it, it was looking quite mottled in the last firing.

Another favorite from the kiln is the grey plate with the trees. I spent so much time stressing about what color to glaze it and the simple grey turned out just perfect.
