Ceramics Kiln News December 2024

Please follow this thread to determine if your items are ready for pick up. Please pickup your piece(s) ASAP, we are a very busy community and need the room to unload kilns when ready.

Don’t forget your cookies! If your piece is on a dms cookie, please put the cookie back on our kiln shelf area…please do not leave on the pick-up shelves.

If your piece has a star or little fruit in it, the item is being marked for our 30-day guideline. Please put them back in the glass dish on the shelf after collecting your piece(s).

As a reminder there is no personal storage on our shelves or in the Ceramics space, that means bisque/glaze items should not be on the In Progress shelves.

If you have a piece that’s been missing, please double check the Needs Attention Shelf. Your piece will have a note attached as to why the kiln team did/cannot fire, it is important that you fix the issue in order for your piece to be fired. Continuing to place your item on the shelf for firing without fixing the issue will not result in an ultimate firing of your piece. Also check one of the 4 bisque shelves or top glaze shelf with the ladder if you cannot find your piece.

If you need assistance or other options to achieve your desired results, please consult the wiki guidelines for firing or reach out to the community for further information.

WHEN PLACING ITEMS ON THE BISQUE SHELVES:
THEY NEED TO BE BONE DRY
THEY NEED TO BE FREE OF ANY PAPER OR ANYTHING ORGANIC LIKE LEAVES, TWIGS, OR STEMS.

Thank you!

I love the blue/white glaze used in the two mugs in the bottom right corner! By any chance does anyone know what it is?

unloaded bisque
shelves are full





Hi! I can’t seem to find a glazed woven basket piece I dropped off for firing a week and a half ago? I dropped off a few other pieces with it that were fired 5 days ago. When I picked those up, I didn’t see the basket. It had two little firing stands under it. Would the kiln team happen to know what happened to it? Thank you!

If you look on top shelf…there it will be

If I had to guess I might say that’s @Monikat’s work but I could be wrong

Thanks for the compliment, but not me :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
