Pro-Tip:When you are finished, just leave your pieces right here on the table. We will collect them and safely transport them to the kiln room for you.

Painting Your Bisque

• Palette Etiquette: Our underglazes are professional, lab-formulated pigments. They are highly concentrated, so please only pour a small amount into your palette at a time. A little goes a long way!

• The Smooth Finish: Apply color in smooth, even layers. Avoid over-thickening (like frosting), as it can result in a rough, matte texture after firing.

• The "Bare Bottom" Rule: Paint your initials on the bottom, but no other color. If the bottom of your piece is painted, it will fuse to the kiln shelf and ruin the finish.

• Need Ideas? Feel free to use your phone to search for inspiration or design references while you work.

Sculpting from Scratch

• The 15mm Rule: Keep your walls and base roughly 15mm (1.5cm) thick. If it’s too chunky, moisture gets trapped and can cause cracking.

• Joining (Score & Water): We don’t use liquid slip!

  1. Score: Scratch a "cross-hatch" pattern into both surfaces.

  2. Water: Apply a tiny drop of water to the scratched areas.

  3. Press: Push the pieces together firmly until they "lock."

• Stay Sturdy: Avoid thin, fragile parts (like long, thin limbs or tiny antennae). They are prone to breaking off during the drying process.

• Your Signature: Carve your name or initials clearly into the bottom of your sculpture.
