SoulHaven Pottery kiln opening #15: Spectrum, Mayco and some New flux and old-timey Amaco glazes
It's been a while since I've had a Kiln opening and this kiln was fired about a week ago. I decided to film today in hopes of bringing some calming, happy glaze candy to anyone who might need it in this crazy weird world we live in now. Enjoy.
P.S. for anyone who doesn't get to the flower bowls unloading part of the video. I mention where I learned how to make them. CeramicsbyJas "Making Flower Bowls" on RUclips :).

A small but sweet Happy New Year Kiln Opening :) And it is probably "Kiln Opening #8"...but who's counting, or counting correctly anyway, probably not me lol! I mention Ancient Iron by Mayco...but it is COYOTE For some reason my video is pretty dark and has different volume levels at times...I had trouble exporting it so maybe the quality changed. Every video is a learning experience for sure! ...

Hi Everyone, Kiln opening #7, Yay!! So, instead of doing a photo recap at the end I'm just listing the glaze combos in the order I pull the pieces out of the kiln. Not ideal (I will learn how to do time stamps soon) but I hope you enjoy and get something out of the video! It's a process but I am always trying to learn, grow, and evolve :) Instagram: @soulhavenpottery Web: www. soulhavenpottery....
SoulHaven Pottery Kiln opening #6

So, another very quick video compilation (which I filmed in my garden on a very windy day!) of my latest glaze kiln unloading. I don't know why I programmed my already hot firing kiln for a cone 6 because it went to probably a cone 7! My #6 cones were flat on the shelf, lol! So, yeah, lot's of fails-which I don't show all of here, only a few pretty ones that would have been amazing at a cone 5....

@@gsandaupottery 👍🏻. Yeah, I tried to get it within a year which was last June, but I could make enough videos.. but that’s ok! Thank you❣️
love all the spectrum glaze combo with the honey flux,
Hey Star! Wonderful kiln opening! I just LOVE Spectrum too! You got so many beautiful results! Take care!❤️
thanks so much Audrey!
They're all so beautiful so many blended colors 😍 💖 ✨️ Glad you are safe!
@@RedEftDesigns thanks Amanda❣️
Fantastic kiln opening !
@@Shawnreidpottery thanks!
What is wrong with these people lighting fires? Sending love from Canada to everyone in LA ❤️
@@PaperMoonPottery thank you 🇨🇦 !!💕
@@PaperMoonPottery yes, it’s hard to understand the sociopathic sickness some people struggle with.
Wow what a great kiln unloading Star! You have beautiful combinations. Spectrum floating glazes are the best! I’m glad you’re safe. I’m sorry about the devastation in LA, it’s really sad. I agree we’re living in a crazy world. Sending love and positive vibes.❤
Hey star!!! Omg I got sooo excited when I saw u had a vid up! So sad the tragedy over there we have been watching on our news over here too. Oh I love the refire cup so pretty! The layered spectrum glaze mugs r stunning. The jugs r so cute. Love the trinket dishes. Love the pastels u r getting. The grinding compound is called permatex valve grinding compound in a grey n purple tube. Dante uses it too so u can get it in the US. It’s amaaazing for kids. Love those casserole dishes could u show how to throw them please? Great kiln load. Nat xx
@@mudmagic407 thanks so much Nat! I thought I replied earlier but I don’t see it! Yes, I plan to throw more so I will film it! I was shocked it got three off the wheel in a row perfectly with lids and everything so hopefully 🤞🏻 I can have as much luck again lol.
@@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gfhahaha grinding compound perfect for lids not kids!!!! Hahaha omg auto correct cracks me up!!!!
@ oh!!!! Lololololol. That’s so funny 😂 I thought you meant it was like “safe” grinding compound…I’m rolling on the floor laughing over here!
@@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gfas long as we don’t use it to grind kids I think we r ok 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@mudmagic407 👌
Woooooow…just wow. Every piece is stunning! Your casseroles are insanely gorgeous…you have the best kiln openings! I’m so sorry about the fires 😢 …you are such a bright light with such a soothing vibe. I’m certain that you are helping so many people right now just by being you ❤️. Sending lots of love and hugs 🫂 thank you for posting this for us 😘
@@Mollybeepottery omg you are so sweet❣️thank you for the beautiful compliments, I am so touched☺️
@ oh and i am also obsessed with the peony flowers! I just ordered a bunch of stuff from Jas’s Amazon store… including those cookie cutters. I love her channel - so funny how we like the same stuff. Twin flames 😆
@ yay! they are fun to make and the texture is so perfect for the Spectrum glazes
@@Mollybeepottery when did you change your channel name!? I am behind the times girl! Just subscribed (but I was already subscribed so I’m not sure why I had to again? lol💌 maybe it was my other channel that I did it in..idk. I’ve always wanted to know how to hide or delete my other channel bc I always get confused and think I am watching and subscribing from this channel when it’s the other one🙄 I didn’t know we could change the name and keep all the vids and subs! I just noticed you have almost 4K subscribers girl!!! You go!
@ I just went down a rabbit hole on the wood and brass stamps I saw 😂. And got more cutters too..hahaha

HOLY MOMLKY THOSE ARE BEAATUUTFUL!

The type of grinding paste brand I have is Chemico. I got it from a local auto store, O'Reilly's
@@CarisseH yes! I just ordered some👍🏻will be delivered today. Thank you! We have O’Reillys…I’ll remember when I need it again. Or maybe I’ll return it and get it at O Reilly’s! I’d rather support someone other than Amazon lol.
so sorry for what's happening to you guys out there in California from here in the UK 💚. Loved your mugs and the little flower bowls. I also follow Jas! I was wondering what app you are using? My Sketchbooks are getting muddled lol
@@gigis.garden thank you so much, I appreciate you watching and commenting💕 I use an app called Pottery Notes😊
Beautiful combos! Happy it was a great one for you 😃
@@CarolLyman-jm8uq me too😬
Hang in there Star. It is a crazy world Sending positive thoughts to you and those around you.
@@susancole6090 thank you 🙏
I am happy you are safe and were not in the fire zones. I think everyone in SoCal knows someone that knows someone that was hurt in this devastation. I watched in horror from the other side of the mountain knowing all too well what people were facing. All that aside, your kiln opening was a huge success! Your glaze combos are stunnning!
@@pammartin7160 yes.. hits so close just knowing someone that knows someone! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment 💗
Thank you for posting your lovely work, the peony dishes are gorgeous!
Thank you! I will make more, I hope people will like them at the art show.
Found the compound Florian Gadsby recommends. He even reuses it. It’s the chemico grinding paste. I got mine on amazon
Oh! Thank you!!
I think the compound is Valve grinding compound. I’m sure it can be called different things.
Mentioned pottery app. What is the app?
It is called Pottery Notes. I really like it, I've used it for a few years now
Really beautiful combinations. Enjoying your channel. Subscribed
Aww...thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy the videos💕
Gorgeous. Did you pre-order the new flux glazes? I can’t find them anywhere
No, I got them from Clay King! I was shopping for some other glazes and noticed them :)
Beautiful kiln opening! Pretty combinations.
Thank you!
Stay safe.
Thanks for sharing Canada is thinking of you all down there stay safe
Well thank you Canada for sending us brave beautiful firefighters to help. It was devastating in those first few days and for them to come risk their lives fighting these fires means so, so much❤️
All beautiful! So glad you are OK.
@@pamdorneman888 ☺️ thank you so much
Great glaze combos. Those fires are so devastating…stay safe!
So sorry to hear the devastation from the fires in your country. Sometimes its helpful to find a happy and creative space during times of adversity. All the very best from New Zealand. Btw your glaze combos are lovley and thank you for sharing your talents.
@@lindaking8035 thank you💌
@@fionabryant2311 Thanks for that...I agree! Pottery was a lifesaver through Covid and it definitely helps keep me sane in general. Thank you for watching from beautiful New Zealand!
You always find interesting combinations that are magical, like on the test mug. Love your videos. So glad you solved the kiln issues you were having. My kiln is starting to fire too low when I bisque and too high when I glaze fire. Really weird. Glad you’re back!😊❤❤
@@lianaholtochsner Hi! Thanks for watching and for calling something I did “magical”.. 🥰love that! I hope you figure out your kiln issues😕. What kiln brand do you have? Most companies have support experts that can help👍🏻 xo
Enjoy your kiln unloads. Your calming demure is so relaxing to watch!
I have had success putting a little silica sand down on the shelf for delicate pieces. It allows them to glide on the shelf as they shrink and they are less likely to catch on the shelf and warp. You will have some mess to clean up but better than losing your piece. I have also heard EPK works. Best to keep it towards the middle of the shelf so it doesn't spill onto other pieces.
@@PaperMoonPottery thank you! I use alumina hydrate…is that the same thing? Sometimes it doesn’t even help if something runs too much tho! Thanks for watching, sorry for the late response
@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf Alumina hydrate is different. I know it's used for that but I haven't tried it. I use coarse silica sand under my lanterns and platters and I've had good results. It also helps with glaze drips on your shelf apparently. Your piece may have warped for another reason other than sticking to the shelf but I just thought I would share my method in case it helps :)
@ thank you! I need yo go get more clay at Laguna. I’ll check and see if they have the coarse silica there👍🏻
Are other glazes able to achieve this as I don’t have any stroke n coats?
@@judithmoore6564 hi, possibly. You can search some of the glaze forums on FB as i think people have experimented. I’ve only experimented with the glaze that goes over the whole thing last but didn’t really like the results as much as the “crystal” glazes like Sandstone and Cenote by Mayco
@@judithmoore6564 but you can experiment with some glazes that are not super stable! Not Celadons-I don’t think they would run well. You might come up with a fantastic result 💕
that was great! Thanks for sharing
@@jeneratoraltonator6662 you’re welcome🙂thanks for watching!
how did you get the new spectrum glazes? i have had them ordered since August and still waiting.
@@Elizabeth-mo3fv I just lucky w timing and got a sample pack (I don’t even remember from where, might have been Sheffield. I shopped many places trying to find it!) and was able to get some full sized ones-Ginger and Floating Turquoise from Clay King or Glaze Queen? (all other colors were out!)
@@Elizabeth-mo3fv where did you order from? Were they in stock when you ordered? If so, I’d be calling to see where my order is!
Nice unload! I really like the burnt jade votive, interesting how we all like different finishes
@@loreliemiller628 I know right? I ended up liking it better after looking at it in a different light. Thanks for watching💕
Hi Star, what an awesome kiln unloading! I loved so many of your glaze combinations. The ginger and amaryllis is beautiful and loved the nebula. You will love your part time. Before I retired I went PT for a year. Once you get that taste you won’t want to go back, lol! Congrats!👏🏻🙏🏻❤️
@@anasclayhouseThanks Ana! Nebula is one of my favorite Laguna glazes, it’s such an angelic, etherial blue! I feel I will miss the FT money but it will push me to go to more pottery shows!
@@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf You’ll love it. I thought the same, but to me my free time was more important. I can’t wait to see more of your work!❤️
STAR!!! So happy to see you back!! And CONGRATULATIONS on your upcoming PT status!! Great way to start the new year!! Love that you did a lot of votives, great test AND an easy pickup pieces! That Ginger Amaryllis combo!! YES PLEASE!! Sooooo many gorgeous combos Gurl 🤩 Love that you are having fun with the new Spectrum glazes!! Lavender Mist with Autumn purple!! That giant test mug…great idea!! Thanks for sharing the Amaco Phases..I’ve only bought 1 but haven’t used them yet..the teal one is amazing! Wowza! Great Kiln Opening Star so many great ideas!!!
@@SarahWaltonPottery thanks for watching Sarah! Yes a lot of little grab and go things I hope people will like. I have everything packed up for the show today😬I’ll post some pics on insta💕
Wow!!!!!! You are a glaze master! I loved every single piece even the test mug 😂 what an amazing kiln opening 🎉❤!! Quick question…is that cactus from spectrum? Because I have used it before and it won’t run or move at all! Even when layering with other runners…it’s the strangest thing! Love how cactus turned out even on the one you didn’t like 😆 wait a month and look at that piece again…I bet you will love it 😍
@@Mollybeepottery 💕you are always so sweet to me Molly. I do like the cactus cup now😆 and yes Spectrum cactus. It didn’t run at all but what I put over it did, not crazy though, it’s a pretty gray. Thanks for watching! I feel so disconnected and behind on watching glaze kiln videos but I just gotta jump back in👍🏻
@@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf awwww ❤️❤️❤️ so interesting about the cactus! I am just getting back to watching videos too..the cold weather just hit so it’s indoor time for the next 6 months 😆
Some beautiful glaze combinations. Thank you for sharing 😊
@@janesshoeboxstudio5829 💕thanks so much for watching
How did you do the geometric effect on the plate at 26:16?
Hi, with a stencil 😊
It’s a trivet so it’s totally flat. A plate might be more tricky, you could do it while the clay is still a flat slab and then gently drape it over a plate mold to shape it but don’t press too hard or you get rid of the impression/design
I miss your posts, Star. Hope to see you soon and that your sister's visit was fun!
Aww, thank you Kathy! I'm glazing some things now. It's been so hot here that it took me a long time to get enough pottery made for a bisque kiln. But soon I'll have another kiln unload :)
@@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf You are my favorite out of the many k openings I watch!
Those pieces had stunning combos, way to go!!!-Liana
Thanks! Sorry I have not been paying attention to comments, lol...I appreciate it Liana!
Great kiln unload Star 😍
@@Tjsclaycreations thank you!
Hi There, What did you use to write the text at the top of small cup at time stamp 23:22. You used Opel Lustre X2 with Oatmeal over how many times.
@@soverignbeing8 Black Designer Liner by Mayco…they have a lot of colors💗
@@soverignbeing8 and Oatmeal I usually put x2 just at the top because it can run a lot. You can put a thinned (with water or gum solution) coat half way down and the second coat on top half way down from the top of the first coat. Sometimes it’s tricky depending on firing temp and all but try one thick coat at top (under the text “top”) about a one inch band or like I described in 2 staggered coats
@@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf Great and thanks for responding so swiftly!
Good day! I'm watching a video where you gave a shout out to someone who commented they find your videos therapeutic...I too would like to second that statement!! As a fellow nurse who is on a LONG HAUL recovery I have watched so so many videos while I'm unable to do my own but by far your videos are my favorites. They have such wonderful and beautiful ideas plus it's nice to know I'm not the only one trying my own, odd combos. Your calm voice also soothes the soul. Have a blessed day. Thank you for sharing.
Aww, you’re so sweet to say all that💗. I hope you are making your way back to health. Sometimes as nurses we just need a freaking break, especially if we are more intensely sensitive beings who try to take care of everyone but ourselves. I feel making pottery helps with this self care though. I hope you feel better soon…🫶🏻😘
All of them are so pretty! The big jar is my favorite but the purple and green one and the stenciled bowls are gorgeous too. How did you do the stencils, just with a thick slip? Love your jewelry bits as well how thick was the slab for those they look very lightweight❤
Thanks Amanda! Yes just hold the stencil in place and brush a thick slip then carefully peel away the stencil. I cut the flowers out of a bigger stencil to make it easier. The jewelry slab I just roll out very thin..maybe 2-3mm? They are super lightweight. I use a rolling pin after the slab roll to get desired thinnesses.
Stunning!!!!! What are the colors you’re using? Which are flux? Absolutely breathtaking! 💕💕💕
The light flux is the beige or tan colored one and the other colors are Mayco Stroke & Coat glazes. I think I listed all the colors i used at the beginning of the video, but I’ll check but you can use any colors of your own choice! That’s the beauty of Stroke & Coat glazes 😊 the last glaze is Sandstone by Mayco and a little Amaryllis (the pink) at the end
I’m pretty sure the colors are Rosey Posey, TuTu Tango, Grapel, Jaded and Blue Isle
Hi Star, what a great kiln opening! Thanks for sharing your beautiful glaze combos. The jars are so lovely and I will have to get the twilight glaze now.😅🙏🏻💕
I know right?? On the twilight 👍🏻…Thank you Anna!
Thanks for sharing. Your comments/notes you added in cracked me up.
I’m always glad when it’s entertaining!
Thank you for sharing!❤ love your combo’s!
😊 thank you!
Thanks for watching💗
Starr so nice to see you back! Your glazing has such a signature look. Beautiful! I’m loving what you are doing with twilight ❤. You’ve inspired me 😊
Well I think it might have been YOU who inspired me to order it! I think (I hope!) I gave you a shout out the first time I used it…I’ll look back😁and if I didn’t I will! Thanks Lisa💕
No need for a shout out. You are doing lovely things with it. I haven’t used it in a while. I’ll have to put it back in the rotation 😊
Great kiln opening ❤. Always love your combo's. We're neighbors. I'm located 20miles east, of San Diego. Looking forward to the next kiln opening 👍🏽
Nice! I’ll look you up on Instagram and follow if you’re on there👍🏻. Thanks for the nice comments💕
@SoulHavenPottery-gt2gf not much on Instagram but a few videos on RUclips..I'm going to videos my DISASTER and upload tonight. What could go wrong did lol..From me inadvertently turning off the computer on the kiln. Restarting. Didn't get to tep..lol.. Everything in the kiln was an experiment, with different clay and glazes? So i'm not upset, I just feel stupid..lol
Aww…don’t feel stupid, stuff happens girl.
