Here is a short and efficient video about the basics of glazing if you are new to ceramics by Pottery about. #glazing #ceramicshowto #ceramicstutorial

I recently posted about Olivier Van Herpt and his 3D printed ceramics, that you can see here. I got the chance to attend a demonstration by Jonathan Keep a few months ago where he was explaining and showing how to use a 3D printer to make ceramic wares. I already knew quite a bit about 3D printing, but seeing the cup literally grow before my eyes was still impressive and mesmerizing. In this video, Jonathan Keep explains how to make your own ceramic 3D printer. I am consider

If you are a ceramicist and want to take it a step further, why not start using natural clay? This video by expertvillage explains how to find it and collect it! Not sure that I am quite ready to try that yet…. Are you? Then learn how to clean the clay that you have just collected thanks to this second video. #ceramicshowto #ceramicstutorial #ceramicsvideo

If you are starting with slipcasting, here is a video by Ceramic arts daily that will help you to get started. #ceramicshowto #ceramics #slipcasting

I was recently asked to write a blog post about my journey as a self-employed ceramicist. If you want to know more about my reasons for deciding to become self employed, the challenges I had to overcome, the rewarding parts of being self-employed, and other things about me and my business, read my blog post here. #ceramics #ceramicshowto #handmade #makingceramics #pottery #unique #vessels #angrypixie #selfemployment

Here is a method to make multiples quickly in ceramics : press moulding. Those two videos, one by Alan Paulson and the other one by the Musée Départemental de la Faïence in France, give you an overview of how to do so. Have a look and let me know if you have used or are planning to use this technique. #pressmold #alanpaulson #ceramictutorial #ceramicists #ceramicshowto #clay #crafts #handmade #makingceramics #plastermould #pottery #unique #videotutorial

Last week I made some boxes that I will use when I am making plaster moulds for my slip casting. They are movable which means I can make a wide range of different sizes. They are going to be much more easy to use that the old system I was using! I simply used old boards of wood that I cut the same size and some small metal brackets I folded and screwed onto the wooden boards. Easy! This way I can slide them to change the size. #ceramicshowto #ceramics #handmade #mouldmaking

In this video Alan Paulson teaches how to make a plaster mould for slip casting. This one is a drop out mould (one part) but I will be posting later on a video about how to make several parts moulds. #mouldmaking #plastermould #ceramictutorial #ceramics #alanpaulson #ceramicshowto #crafts #handmade #makingceramics #pottery #unique #videotutorial #vessels

This demonstration by Ingleton Pottery shows how clay vessels can be pierced for decorative purposes. Phew! I don’t know if I would be patient enough! #ceramictutorial #ceramics #ceramicshowto #crafts #handmade #ingletonpottery #makingceramics #pottery #vases #unique #vessels #videotutorial

Paper clay is a good way to recycle old slip, and it also allows you to create light pieces. In this document by Lisa Merida-Paytes you will discover how to make paper clay. #paperclay #lisameridapaytes #ceramictutorial #ceramics #ceramicshowto #crafts #diy #handmade #makingceramics #paper #pottery

I am increasingly looking at how I could add patterns and drawings onto my ceramic pieces, especially for my jewellery as I have a few ideas in mind for my next collection… Here is a video by Erin Furimsky called ”paper stencils and underglaze transfer” demonstrating how to create handmade transfer paper and how to apply the transfer afterward onto clay. #erinfurimsky #transferontoclay #ceramictutorial #ceramicshowto #crafts #diy #handmade #illustration #makingceramics #potte

A step by step tutorial about how to centre clay on a wheel, by Beth Peterson. Very useful if you want to learn how to throw and don’t know how to get started. Enjoy! #ceramictutorial #ceramics #ceramicshowto #makingceramics
