clay: glaze testing

Two Saturdays ago, I decided to test the new celadon glazes I bought at Clay Planet on the 2 bisque BMix mugs I had made. 

 

I love the results of the Sky celadon...

...the Ice celadon was not the very light turquoise I thought it might be, but that's because I layered it over a navy blue underglaze.

And so I'll layer the Ice celadon by itself on the exterior and perhaps use our studio's new light turquoise in the interior of the mug for another greenware cup I made last Saturday. I didn't photograph it, but I also sanded the bone dry lamp I had made and loaded it into the kiln. Fingers crossed that it won't crack (too much as it's very thin).
