Episode 16: How to make a Pottery Glaze and Read a Glaze Recipe

Have you ever wondered how pottery glazes are made?

In this episode, we go through the process of making a glaze and how to read a glaze recipe. We talk about the importance of wearing an FFP3 face mask when working with powders in pottery, how to store your glaze to prevent it from drying out and what to do if you add too much water to the recipe. If you’ve never made a glaze before, it's very simple and you can do it!
