  1. A question regarding your spraying process. What (if anything) do you do to prevent over spray of the outside glaze from getting on the interior glaze? I have tried a couple different things (waxing the inside, spraying the outside first and wiping off over spray, etc.), but it is always a pain in the arse.

  2. It is truly a pain...
    #1 I have learned to always consider the overlap and how the glazes will react and which should go first...
    #2 I tend to pick a layering that appeals.
    #3 OR if I REALLY want them separate- particularly in a mug type opening, I will pour in the inside...let it dry and then shove something in the opening to catch the glaze: a sponge or sponge like material or cloth/towel that I can wash later...

  4. Thanks for the info. I have used a semi-matte black as a liner before, so it doesn't really matter much for that. I am going to be trying just a clear or white glaze soon, though, so over spray would probably look kind of off. I'll have to try the sponge/rag idea. Keep up the superlative work!

  7. HEY Mrs. JT,

    Very Nice graphic look on the Etsy and the Blog. So clean. You remain super busy - very prolific. Well done.

    I have been meaning to share this with you and your fine associates in the MUDDER realm.

    A Residency overseas sent my way via my own travels to Japan:
    "Seto International Ceramic & Glass Arts Exchange Program"

    Looks truly interesting...
    Anyhow, my best wishes to all.

    Mr. A
