My Actifit Report Card: January 21 2020

I have discovered that it is all about the glaze when it comes to pottery. I made this pinch pot bowl a couple of years ago and never glazed it because it was not shaped well. I was messing around in the garage with some old clay and I never took the time to glaze it.

I recently borrowed some potters choice glazes from my friend. I wanted to try these mid-fire glazes on a few pieces that I had finished. I was surprised at how those glazes made my pinch pot bowl look like a work of art.

I used two different colors, one on each mug and then a combination on the bowl. The lighter color is named tourmaline and the darker color is a midnight blue.

I went back to my friends house to borrow four more Potters Choice glazes. I am excited about how these glazes can make ordinary clay look fabulous. 😀

I wonder what effect these glazes will have over the reddish brown terra-cotta clay that I have been working with recently.

Stay tuned for the next kiln opening when my experiment will be continued. Working with clay on a pottery wheel uses a lot of energy. Some ladies at the center do not have enough strength in their arms or hands. The larger the ball of clay, the more work you have to apply to get it centered on the wheel.

I keep my Fitbit on when I am working with my clay. It is a good thing that the band is made out of plastic, because it is usually covered with clay when I finish. One day, the clay may force me to upgrade my Fitbit to a newer waterproof model. Until then, I’ll just keep using the one that I have.

Enjoy your day.
