Creating a Pierced Wheel Thrown Vase - Carved Holes for Candle or Lights

- I have an Amazon Influencer storefront where I recommend products, supplies, and studio needs for potters. Follow me to check out the tools I use in my videos! www.amazon.com...
In this video, I throw a vase from two hunks of clay which I put together to center... probably totaling around 8 pounds. A handy technique if you ever struggle with larger pieces of clay while centering. I show the process of centering and throwing the vase, as well as cleaning the bottom when leatherhard. I then pierce the vase, using drill bits and an exacto knife to cut my desired pattern. When it stiffened a bit more, I had to go back in and clean the cut pattern. (CLEANING took a lot of time) I allowed it to dry very slowly, then I fired it. Once bisque fired, I show how to rinse and dip in glaze... then once more... clean out the holes to prevent the glaze from clogging them. Lastly, I show the fired glazed form. I have twinkle lights displayed in my piece- but you could certainly use a candle if you want. Here is a link to the lights I have displayed in them. Twinkle Lights (LED battery lights for luminaries) This is set of two:

This is set of four:

They work really well- and I use rechargeable AA batteries in them.
In the video, I am using Standard 259 claybody fired to cone 04 bisque. I glazed it in Coyote Peacock glaze, and glaze fired to cone 5 with a 25 minute hold.

I am a public high school ceramics teacher at William Mason High School in Mason, Ohio. (Mason is currently the largest high school in Ohio!) As a potter, I have been working in clay for over 30 years, and I have been teaching for over 28 years, the past 20 have been specifically teaching high school ceramics. I love what I do! I have my own studio in my home basement, where I work on my personal pottery for my Etsy site; www.etsy.com/s...
I started my RUclips channel a few years ago, to make videos to help my students if they are absent and miss a demo, or if they would like to explore more advanced techniques independently. I have been amazed to reach such a wider audience than my own students!
Please subscribe to my channel if you would like to receive channel updates, or would like to learn more about clay and studio processes!
csuse i am physically handicapped hemiplegia i can spend days watching this throwing work so good for the mind
thank you sooo much👍💞
Oh my goodness!! I wish I had an art teacher like you when I was in high school. How much fun. Your kids are really lucky to have such a talented teacher. I have learned so much from you!! This is very beautiful.
I keep coming back to your videos, your explanations are fantastic. I love this pot/vase so much.
You are amazing. My room mate was one of your students two decades ago & he loves watching your video's.
OMG- REALLY?! How crazy!!!!! :-)

Very beautiful
So pretty
Highly educational video and impressive result. I just love that beauty!
You are a master teacher.
That was quite a lot of clay to start off with. At first thought you were gonna throw a MOON POT. Great job on centering! You make things look easy.
Ha!!!! Thanks! :)
Amazing job 👏 it's so so beautiful .. I am deeply in love with this craft... I pray Allah to have the opportunity to be a ceramicist in the future 💫💓
Beautiful!!!
Beautiful
very cool, a air compressor gun might make clearing out the glaze from the small holes faster
Beautiful work
You are amazing! The other day I watched your coil pot video. Today I watched this and I am so excited to try this method! What I admire about you is whatever you do, you do well and you explain it clearly. Of course I'm a subscriber. I have been since the first video that I watched. I'll have to find your store on Etsy. Please keep up the fabulous work. You have encouraged and helped me immensely!
Christina Warren Wow! Thanks for the kind comments, Christina! I'm so glad you find them helpful!

Thank you for sharing! Loved your video and would like to try it sometime soon!
It's lovely! I learned a lot. Thank you❤
I have never tried to work with clay, but i would totally try this. Black outside and red inside
Beautiful job
I loved this one
I use Coyote brand glazes for the most part. I don't make my own- as I don't have a great space for mixing without dust.
Trypophobia! Love your videos, so helpful and a valuable teaching tool example for me to give classes!! Thanks
Very good! Thank you!
do another vid where you just keep drilling until its gone. priceless ;)
drop dead gorgeous
you could use air brush to clean the holes in the latter step
great idea! If I had a compressor in my studio- I would! :)
I would imagine it would be important to use a glaze that doesn't run, so the holes don't fill again with glaze?
Wow!!, what a fabulous work, and what an amazing clay. i don't know if we do have this kind of clay here in the Philippines. I am interested in pottery and i just want to know, if the original clay has been mixed with some coloring, because as far as i see, it really looks cool and beautiful.......Love your work Madam.
The clay was not colored- it is a white stoneware... but, I did glaze it in a green glaze!
I like ur work it's so pretty!!
Thanks, Natalie! :-)
Love this video! Found your shop on Etsy and was so happy to see you make videos of you working.
Thank you!!! :-)
Impressive.
Amazing..... I love it
I wished I had you in hs. Did you make large holes first then make rest holes? Beautiful! I love this I want try make one.
I wasn't that organized, truly, as you will see starting at 3:30- I was a bit more randomized with my order of sizes.
Wow! Amazing!
Your videos are fantastic
awwww! Thank you!!! :-)
You used only one color, yet it looks lighter inside. Is that cuz there's a light inside?
Helpful! Thanks!
HERMOSO MUY BUENA IDEA!
U r very creative
Lindo tu trabajo te felicito besos
hey i rrally enjoy your video. im a beginner potter. can yku recommend me what kiln i should have to fire the potts?
It is such a personal choice! ;-) I would first recommend looking locally to see if you can pick up a small used one. Quite often, people sell little kilns used for cheap! And, if you can get a good deal, I wouldn't worry about what brand it may be! Just so the wiring looks safe and not worn! I highly recommend an automatic kiln- but one with a kilnsitter works well too! I have a Skutt 1018 KM, but it may be a bit big for you. I used to have a smaller Skutt, but I don't recall the name of it. L&L's have great element holders- but they are considerably more expensive! My kiln supplier is Erin at Cornell Studio Supply near me in Dayton, Ohio... cornellstudiosupply.com/ Good luck!!! :-)
I usually blow in the holes to open up before the glaze dries
Marcia Johnson yes- great idea! Unfortunately I had way too many holes for that to work this time... 😉. Also, I wanted to knock out a bit more of the glaze to be sure that they wouldn't reseal during firing!
I’d like to see a slow motion of making the holes and how you smooth them..getting all of the burrs off.
Awesome video
u r really great. .
u reply to every comment.
love ur work
Awwww- thanks! Guess that's the teacher in me! ;-)
masood jadoon fer un bouda
I wish I could pay for a vase in the color white. Do you sell these I would LOVE to own one please!
Thank you for the message! I did respond on Etsy! :)
wow SO INNOVATIVE , I LIKE IT, but i have a question here ?? when you finish up from formatting the clay in general do you have to put it in the oven , or leaving the object overnight will do? < I'm just a beginner ^_^
Yes, this type of clay must be fired to around 2000 degrees F. :)
thanks
Do you have a type of clay you prefer?
At home, I like Laguna Bmix or bmix with grog- cone 6- but I am thinking about making a shift to a cone 6 porcelain in the next year or so! I am testing out some to see if I want to make that leap!
🙉🙉🙉amazing
plz tell how u prepare caly plz
👍
Yo r fentabulous
Will hair not burn away in the kiln ?
Yes, hair burns out the kiln. Sorry- I don’t remember mentioning that in the video- so I can’t reference whatever I may have said! :)
The studio I go to has a dog. His hair does burn off! :D
Lol!!!
Do you have an air filter system?
Yes, at school, there is a ventilation system which exhausts air outside. At home, I have an Environkleen hepa filtration unit. I like it!
@@KaransPotsAndGlass thank you....I am paranoid..have 2 inexpensive air filters..pull down hood vent for my kiln and am constantly cleaning with water..will due of old age before dust gets me as I started on this addictive journey 3 years ago at 75!
Oh my god. That is not what I expected.
Slow firing at what temperature mam.... Please illuminate us
Cone 5, slow, hold for a 25 minute soak!
KaransPotsAndGlass, thanks mam you are so kind, actually i am a student of law from India, but deeply interested in this art form, i hope to pursue this passion further in the future, thanks for your amazing contributions in the field. I really appreciate it and have no words to describe my interest in this art form, but i am afraid of choosing it as career option. Please suggest if you find some time.
Why do you use a 25 minute hold when you fire?
Because I use a cone 6 glaze- but I fire to cone 5. The 25 minute hold is soak time basically to allow the glaze to fully mature. (I occasionally have a cone 5 glaze I may also use, so that is my go-to program for successfully firing both my cone 5 and cone 6 glazes together!) :-)
Thank you.

wow she centers terribly
Donovan- in this video, I try to teach my students how to center large pieces of clay. I center one piece, then put a second piece on top of it, and center the both together. The trick of coning is something which I show to them to aide them in centering such large chunks. I am addressing common problems my students face. I find your comment confusing, as the piece is centered... In my opinion, bad centering is something which is NOT centered, or perhaps it takes someone way too long to center... neither of these is the case!
KaransPotsAndGlass I meant you took long I guess it was a bit rude
I see! When not doing a teaching video- I don't use multiple pieces, nor do I really use the coning method much... I tend to go much faster. ;-) Doing a demo and explaining the steps always takes me much longer! :-)
Me too
Hi I have a question about a piece that I have...may I email you photos please..it would really help me out..I'm sure you may have an answer for me...thank you kindly.
