If your glaze has any chunky things in it such as those sprinkles, you should gel it by adding a vinegar/epsom salts/calcium chloride. The glaze should have enough fine particles to be thyxotropic (such as those supplied by clay, kaolin, bentonite etc). This will keep the particles in suspension by turning your glaze thicker the longer it is stationary.
I love speckles month! ❤❤❤ Such a great idea. 😊
hehe i an having so much fun :)
Mia -- Perhaps of interest to you or others: When I want speckles I just add them to the glaze which produces an effect identical to using speckled clay. The best speckles to add can be made by you as follows: get some steel wool pads, put them in a bowl, and bisque them to your normal temp. Afterwards, they will be very dry and crumbly and you can just turn them into a powder like substance with your fingers. Adding a small amount to the glaze gives a very nice effect to an otherwise boring glaze. The particles are very light, so although they will settle, they stay suspended enough to let you glaze without any big problems. A little goes a long way.
Haha love this! Just a tad bit chaotic but 100% educational 😂
haha a bit of chaos is never bad 😂
I think if you add epsom salts to the glaze, it will flocculate the glaze and keep the speckles suspended, im in the middle of experimenting with speckles. Cant wait for the next vid
great idea!
Works best if you dissolve the epsom salt in warm water first, then pour into glaze. Amounts can vary, but I think you could start with 1 tsp salt in 1/4 cup warm water, added to 2 gallons of glaze. Anyone with a favorite recipe, please share!
This speckles month is so much fun! I’m bookmarking them so I can return to them as I build my little workshop and ass glazes. Love the blue ❤
You can use not bisqued with the sprinkle on method and it works about the same! I do agree it’s hard to get even coverage because you have to work quickly.
These videos are really helpful, and I was just given a box of various glazes that have not been opened in 30 years - most have dried out and I think I may try this method with them to see what happens. I didn't want to toss them because the chemicals are all there, just not the water...
jackpot! sounds like a lot of experiments await you!
Oh I didn't even think of this loophole straight away! But you're right: that's a great way to use old dried up glazes woaaa
Gawd I love these speckles. Thank you for trying it out and sharing the different techniques ❤
you’re welcome! it was fun to experiment :)
Two weeks ago I made the same recipe with 4 different colours, but it needs to wait for the next bisque firing. I'm so excited to experiment with it. The one with the Botz glaze looks really interesting!
awesome! yeah this definitely wont be the last time I play around with glaze speckles ✨
I think dipping the bowl into the speckles directly after dunking it in the liquid base glaze would work better. You would need A LOT of speckles to do this but you could sprinkle them inside the bowl while the bottom is resting in the speckle pile
I love the sprinkled glaze! I think it would work if you make like a lazy susan with a sort of 'pin support' to put the base-glazed item on, and then use one of those 'pump to add air pressure' plant sprayers (sold cheaply as water balloon pumps, I guess?) that have a more even spread of water to re-wet the glaze.
smart!! that could work
loving speckles month. I'm already thinking about how I'll do a colorful grog project in the new year. Thanks!
awesome!!
I love the celadon one. That’s so pretty and interesting.
It turned out sooo good!
I love your videos! Just wanted to point out that the length unit “mil” that you used at 2:08 actually is 0.001 inches, not just an abbreviation for “millimeter”. Thanks for making these awesome videos!
hahah omg! I am embarrassed how long I've been saying that. ❤️
I often say mil to mean millimeter when I am working exclusively in metric so I think it’s a common thing to do!
Yeah, many people use “mil” for 1/1000 inch AND 1 millimeter, so context is important to clarify. It’s a little annoying that we have collectively settled on one word for two different measurements! Haha!
The sound of scraping out the fired speckle!!!❤
hehe 💆♀️
I sieve them after they have been in the bisque. Otherwise they all end up being too small. After the bisque it is still douable to crush them, just not in a plastic bag.
Wonderful demo~ I'm just starting out and amazed at all these techniques involved in glazing....always learning. Thank you for sharing~
I'm from Brazil and i love your channel! I've learn so much from you, thank you!
Thank you for your emphasis on safety! 😊
great video, love a bit of throw it up in the air and see what happens. a lot learnt there and some unique results. love the paint on version
I think my favorite is the dip. I like the light application.
I love how tiny the speckles were! Just wish there were more of them :)
I'm totally new to pottery, but just by watching this video, I think the size of the speckles were a bit too big. For the 2nd method, I think if you use the finest speckle, it might turn out great!
You're making me want to try making pottery one day! Love your videos❤
Hopefully Babbel teaches some useful phrases like “Happy Speckles Month” auf Deutsch
the most essential phrase 🙌
the first one is the winner - the second one the runner up! :)
Sprinkles moth is my new favourite thing! A thought: what if you dunk the biscuit pot in water and let it soak up some water (no idea how long), then do the transparant glaze and sprinkle the glaze on. In my mind that would give you more time before the glaze dries. Next week I'll be sure to have my chai latte topped with sprinkles before watching, to stay on theme!
I thought about that too! No idea if it would work but it is worth a try :)
Your backround looks so nice, what a diffrent! I like it so much
thank you so much!!
Great video! Thanks!
I have never tried anything remotely like this. But I am wondering if it might work better if you add the speckles to slip instead of glaze.
I have another method to make speckles but without cooking. I take a little enamel powder that I want to use in speckles and I put on a plastic, I add varnish for wood (50%) and thinner sykthétique (50%) and I mix well. Let dry thoroughly and grind, sieve and use in glaze, speckles will not melt glaze. Great result!
that sounds very interesting!
These look good, particularly the brushing glaze!
I wonder if it would make sense to dip first for glaze coverage, then to paint on heavily speckled glaze?
Would epsom salts be enough to thicken the glaze to suspend speckles, or would some Veegum and/or CMC be needed?
That's a good idea!
I can't wait to try these!!
Great video! Very informative! Thanks!
Question: Is the glaze you made the speckles out of a cone 6? I feel like the oldforge tutorial made them from a cone 10 glaze which was then put into a cone 6 base. This way the color of the speck would stay as a dot and not melt as much. Versus a cone 6 speck in a cone 6 base which turns out looking more melty. Just curious! Then also it might not stick together as much in the sintering phase as well. I'm about to bisque my own specks to try this out too, as i absolutely love the speck effect! Thanks for testing it all out and showing us, a great real life video❤
Hi Mia, thanks for this video! Question: The painted on gaze that you did, did you expect to get the cracked texture that you ended up with? I must have missed that part...
I think that hand-sprinkling the speckles could be really cool if you had a specific pattern in mind.
That's a great idea!
So glad I watched this but now I feel like I'm back at square one with what I want. I've been trying to get a night sky looking glaze with dark blue or black base glaze with white speckles. Any ideas of how to get that. I"ve been having trouble with suspending the speckles just like you did and also the glaze speckles spreading out too much in the final firing What do you think about mixing white clay body speckles into dark paintible glaze? I think I'll try it regardless but would like to know your thoughts. I bisque to 04 and glaze at cone 10.
The small dish in your hands at 7:12 how did you make the speckles on that particular dish ?
Reminds me of the childrens story about the Sams.
what if you put the speckles in a shaker with large holes?
Excellent video x
Love it , thank you for sharing this video 😊
thanks for watching!
You begin with glaze in a bag....can you explain, is it glaze and water?
What is the brand of the sieve please❤
Omg. I also do this. Very cool! ❤
awesome!
I wonder how good/terrible an idea it would be to use this as grog.
the splotchy one would be really cute if you did cow colors
🐄🤍
you need at least a third hand, sprinkling, spraying water to keep surface damp and twirling the bowl for even coverage, was maybe the problem, i liked the random sprinkle bowl although i would have liked the surface to have more sprinkles, the cup was pretty but not a 'sprinkle' success, but nice as a glaze cover, but i too prefer dipping or pouring glaze so will watch pt 3 with interest and also hop over to old forge creations just to see what he did. thanks for sharing x
a third hand would be very convenient 😅
You could make donuts with sprinkles with this technique. :D
yesss! 😍
What is the name of your sieve that has the different sizes in it? Thanks soo much for all you do for these videos.
I have it linked in the video description :)
Ich würde mich freuen, wenn du einmal ein Video in Deutsch machst. Grüße aus Deutschland 😊
hehe es wäre definitiv eine gute Herausforderung für mich 😊
@@PotterytothePeople and a perfect promotion Video for and with Babbel. 😊
Hey! Is the crackled pot food safe?
people have different opinions on that 😅 not an easy answer
I love how they turned out! The color choice almost gives me like, *Minimalist Wedgewood* vibes. 😄🤍💙
Thank you!! ❤️
