Top tip: always start by “wedging the clay”. That’s to slam it on the table at different angles. This gets all the air bubbles out, even if you’re using seconds, thirds, etc. You should also do it with new clay, because it also gives a smooth texture to the clay, and warms it up so its easier to work with. And then there is no need to poke holes into your product either.

@leleenpretorius5213 3 года назад

What do yous mean by 'seconds, thirds' etc? Newbie so asking as I go along, thanks.

@katyoutnabout5943 3 года назад

Leleen Pretorius i mean using the leftover clay, and then using the leftover clay with more leftover clay. You can use clay over and over, and even if you have chunks that didnt get stored properly and are all dried up, you can dump them in a bucket of water and in a few days, they’ll be ready to add to the leftover clay bucket again :)

Cool video, but I got a bit worried when I saw you cleaned the wood board directly in the sink. If you just put water with clay down the sink it will eventually clog your pipes. It's better to keep the dirty water in a jar - after some time, the clay goes down (decantation) and you can even reuse it! But if other particles got in the clay and it got dirty or you just don't want to reuse it, it's better to just throw it in the trash. [I'm not an expert at clay and ceramics, but I thought it would be good to share this information]

@jetta.silence6356 4 года назад

Why throw it down the sink or trash. Just rinse it off in the back yard or put the jar of slip in the garden. If its natural clay it has lots of minerals that are great for soil.

Ovens can be around 1000€ here which should be around $1300+ But you do not get it for free in any place, dropping it off it not free, they charge you for the amount of time or space you consume for that oven.

@baileybreving2752 3 года назад

Hey there! Although her kiln isn’t “at home,” most communities have an art based organization that more than likely will have a similar situation to Lolita. You can search on Facebook or just Google you city + “community kiln.” Sometimes it’ll be at a college or at a youth center, but more than likely you’ll be welcome to bring your pieces in for a small fee or for free. Obviously there’s dedicated pottery businesses that will more than likely offer a similar service but probably more expensive. Just search around and be resourceful! ❤️

@lenalee1911 4 года назад

Safi La The problem with her showing herself doing that and not stating that youHAVE TO have a clay trap in the bottom is that people who are new to clay won’t know not to do what she did. What you need to do is to spray the surface with water and use a paper towel or regular towel to wipe off as much as you can, then get a clean wet towel and get the rest. I also use a three stage washing when I wash my hands. I use paper towel to get as much of the clay off as possible, then I have an old 1 gallon ice cream bucket that I wash my hands off in that I keep a nail scrub brush in so I can get under my nails, then I will use my sink to wash my hands the last time. It’d sooo very important to get into the habit of.

Also, anything, what you use for cooking cookies or cakes (like, molds and other shapes) you can use with clay too. It's very interesting and the result is usually very good.

Hi love your work, as a newbie to pottery how do you stop your plates warping in the firing process

I absolutely adore your pieces! This video has inspired me to contact my local studio and rent their kiln to fire some of my own pieces! I just have a question - because you let them get bone dry for a week you don't have to bisque fire? Or how do you just do 1 glaze fire? Keep up to beautiful work

@gina88ization Год назад

im confused too, I thought you had to do 2 firings?

@annsalman 4 года назад

Love the video, but you forgot to mention that you shouldn't glaze the bottom of ceramics because otherwise the glaze will melt onto the surface of the shelf in the kiln and it'll be almost impossible to get your piece out of the kiln in one piece.

@LolitaOlympia 4 года назад

I know - there were a few things I forgot to mention! Thank you for your comment though, hopefully people will see that you shouldn’t glaze the bottom from me not doing it! But I’ll be sure to mention in my next tutorials so it’s clear :))

@yasminsameni2154 2 года назад

This was so inspirational and helpful. Thank you so much for posting - Just a question: you seem to skip the bisque firing process and move directly to painting the pieces with glaze, after they have been drying for a week. Is this okay to do? I thought it was important to bisque fire the pieces first before moving on to glazing. I'm a new potter and would greatly appreciate the guidance. TY!!

@juliette3375 2 года назад

Hey I'm asking the same question :) Did you had an answer ? I guess 1 firing is easier but def riskier for the mugs and the kiln

@lorenwallwork 4 года назад

Hey, just wondering how come you don’t fire them before glazing? Like bisquefiring them?

@LolitaOlympia 4 года назад

I single-fire all of my pieces which means I let them dry out completely, glaze them and then fire. It’s a bit different to the traditional bisque & then glaze, but more convenient if you don’t have a kiln of your own x

Wow love that. Question. If you can’t glaze the bottom, can you still wash it in dishwasher ? Or even with water only? Wonder if the bottom wont be water proof because there is not glaze? Just curious 😍

great video! I noticed you glaze before bisque firing while the clay is bone dry, do you need to use a special kind of glaze to do that process? ( I have only ever glazed after bisque firing, then firing again with the glaze)

@Jaylahhhh 4 года назад

Some of these comments are very sad. People need to stop gate keeping things and being so judgemental. Your techniques and methods obviously work for you so people need to keep it to themselves 😡 Your pieces are very beautiful and I’m very jealous that you have access to a kiln and a mentor 😍 I did ceramics in high school for 6 years and was very close with my ceramics teacher but unfortunately she passed away the year after I finished high school. I’ve really been wanting to get back into ceramics and think about it everyday. I hope you keep posting your ceramics videos so I can live out my dreams vicariously through your videos hahah

@lalaheaven 4 года назад

Good thing the plates are supposed to be uneven, i cringe so much when they're being moved and handled while still very wet 😅 though if you want the bottom to be flat you may want to wait till they're stiff enough before lifting them.
