Tutorial 01: Make your own Glaze Chips
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2023
- My first tutorial RUclips is sharing with you how I make my own glaze chips, glaze flakes, confetti chips, both mystery and colour specific. I've been receiving a number of requests asking how I do certain things (glaze chips being very popular) so time to give tutorials a try. Would love to know if you found this helpful, and if the format works so I can consider if I should do any more.
"Tutorial 01 Make Your own Glaze Chips" covers how I make my chips from start to finish, various different methods, at various stages of my glaze procedure, and some finished products. There are many ways to make chips, and everyone finds their own preference, by no means is this the best or the only way - its just how I do it.
I adore that you can use them on flat surfaces such as plates to add interest, bowls in the concave, and also on a vertical surface like the side of a mug or vase. The possibilities are endless and the added excitement with Mystery chips is not only are you using every scrap of glaze and not wasting, you have the most amazing surprise when you open the kiln. Every piece is totally unique and mesmerising.
Hope you enjoy, would love all constructive feedback. Apologies for the croaky voiceover, still recovering from a bout of Pneumonia. All this resting has given me some time to finally catch up on some social media and RUclips editing!

thank you great tip
Your welcome, hope it was helpful.
I’m convinced! I’m going to start collecting glaze chips. Thanks for the inspiration and instructions in how to do just that.
You're welcome. Although warning....it does tend to become obsessive! Lol after seeing what you can create with Mystery Chips you then can't help but make some in individual colours straight from glaze jars! Lol enjoy. Would love to hear how you get on ;)
hello janette, I'm happy about your work and you, I missed you. I love watching your videos, thank you very much and please stay as you are, you are wonderful. Kind regards from Austria. Unfortunately I can't speak your language. I wrote it with a translator and hope it's as good as it is. 👍🏼👌🏼👏🏼😱😍😍😍🫶🏻💐🙋🏼♀️🇦🇹
You wrote this perfectly and it really means a lot to hear your words. Thankyou so much. Playing with clay is so therapeutic but the clay community is also so heartwarming and encouraging. With I had a community studio I could play clay in person with others, but this interaction is wonderful thankyou!
Great video Jeanette, I do similar to save my brush washing water but use disposable paper coffee cups to wash my brushes, then place them on the shelf in the greenhouse to evaporate the water off, as the paper cups have a waxy lining on the inside the dry glaze flakes off easily. It saves the glaze from the brushes and also gives the used coffee cups a second life.
I use a piece of baking paper to collect the chips on before they go into a storage jar. When I open a new jar of glaze I peel off the foil seal and allow this to dry before scrunching up to get the chips off. I also open my glaze jars over a square of paper, this catches any chips that come off the threads of the jar as the lid is unscrewed.
Some great ideas there Derek! How do you like to use your chips?
@@FarForestCeramics I’m only a beginner and have only done a few glaze firings, I’ve only used the chips on small heart shaped earring/trinket dishes so far (about 4” in size), three coats of Amaco Snow and then chips sprinkled all over while the last coat of glaze is still damp. I’ve probably been a little heavy handed with the chips but the grand daughters and there friends love them, I’ve yet to try a plate with just a line of chips sprinkled across it, still slowly building up my jar of chips as I use my glazes more. One thing I have noticed with some of the glazes is that when washing your brushes out and the water evaporates, then the different glazes settle and dry in distinct layers.
A question on a totally different subject, when you place silica sand under your plates, how much do you use, is it just a pinch, a teaspoonful or more. I’ve managed to track down a pottery supplier who has silica sand in NZ, they are few and far between, so I’ll be getting some to try with my plates, so far it only seems to be plates on the top two shelves that have a tendency to warp, the lower two shelves have been okay.
Oh, wow! Thanks for this very helpful video Jeanette. I have always collected glaze remnants, bur not really gotten into making chips out of them yet. Now, I am definitely going to, using your method, Thank You!
So glad it was helpful. I do tend to push the boundaries, and never know where to stop but It could be endless. Hate waste and these chips are so much fun to use. Would love to hear how you get on making some yourself
Jeanette haven't heard from you in a bit so just checking in to make sure you're ok! Hope you're able to be in your happy place creating. 💜💙💜
That's so kind and sweet of you. Been enjoying time in studio but suffered a bout of pneumonia which set me back. Funnily enough was thinking this week I need to edit some RUclips footage I have and post it! Means a lot you checking in thankyou!
@@FarForestCeramics So sorry to hear about your pneumonia! Happy to hear you're on the mend and miss seeing your excitement opening your kiln lol. Us potters have a few things in common for sure. Much love, Catherine. 😁
Wonderful helpful hints and tips there Jeanette, note to self must do better at saving glaze, thought I was good but you are tremendous 😊❤
Lol , obsessive is also maybe more accurate lol
The little heart shaped test tiles, what do you use to write the color name onto the back of the tile?
Hi, I just use an underglaze pencil ✏
I recycle the same way with my (homemade) glazes. When I rinse brushes, sponges,... everything gets recycled. Only I turn it into a 'slop glaze'. Maybe I need to start making chips.
I started with slop glaze but soon realised the alternative application opportunity with Chips. So much fun too x
Have you tried sintering your glaze chips and then adding them to your glaze before applying to your pots?
Hi, I've not tried that technique before but I have to admit it does interest me. I've just decided to have a go at making my own glazes so maybe that is something I can consider experimenting with.
