Oops, I think that’s the wrong screen grab, that’s our regular glaze program.
Yup this one makes more sense.
Hi all- thoughts on doing a luster/decal firing? I think I can talk @Christykaake into doing a luster/decal class soon. Any other takers for luster/decal classes? I was thinking a luster firing on Feb. 26.
Yes, I can put some up for the week prior, probably Sunday and Wednesday before…
A luster would be great because I have few projects in mind that will need luster and that would give me plenty of time to get them ready.
Oooo yes please!! I’d definitely need a class pre-firing, but would love to play!
Be on the look out next week for those classes to get posted.
Be aware that you need a piece of ware that’s already glazed…
For the luster, too?
The luster goes on top of a glaze, because it’s super-low-fire. I mean, I guess you could luster a bisqued piece, but it wouldn’t be vitrified.
Yes luster and decals are added decorations to an already glazed piece. The lusters are not shiny when applied to an unglazed section in my experience.
Fair enough! I guess I coulda googled that, haha. Sorry sorry. Still new at this ceramics thing, but eager to learn all the things!
Nope- ask questions! Rather make sure you have the right info than not.
I will also have things (mugs and tiles for magnets or something) you can practice on, if you don’t have an already glazed piece for it… just to learn the process and make something pretty, since we don’t do it all the time…
You rock, thank you so much! I applied for a slot. I have an idea for something I’d like to try, so lessee if I can get my hands on some clay (gonna try my luck with the Trinity sale) and get a piece finished by then! I super appreciate you providing pieces to practice on if that fails though, that’s very kind of you!!
