Kiln Results 8/11
August 13, 2026The ghost bowl turned out amazing! The ghost mugs, though, still need a little refining.
First, the glaze I chose ran more than I expected, ugh. Second, I think I want to make the ghosts a little smaller. Right now they feel a bit cramped on the mug, and I think giving them more breathing room will improve the design.
I was able to sand down three of the four mugs enough to make them acceptable, but the last one was beyond saving. I have two more of these to fire and given how much these ran I will be wiping the outside to thin.
On the bright side, I found a few new glazes I want to put on pieces in my next kiln load from my test tiles. I also have a backlog my crochet pieces made, sanded, waxed, and ready to glaze. Now I just need to sit down and get them finished!
