Some snippets from the Buddy Bisque Firing ✨ We’re at our last hurrah of buddy firings for May, and June has already started filling up fast! The June 1st Buddy Glaze only has a few spots left, so if you’ve been meaning to book in, now’s the time. Booking links are in my stories or saved in the highlights under “UPCOMING” #bisquefiring #ceramicstudio #ceramic #potteryofinstagram #kilnshare

The kiln gets a bit of TLC! A huge part of kiln operation is making sure all parts of the kiln are regularly monitored and maintained so there’s never a catastrophic event. Prevention always! I handle all the repairs and maintenance myself, so if you ever need help with kiln maintenance, troubleshooting, or repairs feel free to reach out! #kilnfiring #ceramicstudio #ceramiclife #potterygram

A spread of earth vessels from a private glaze firing, ready for their new plant homes. Jackson has a fresh selection of vessels to choose from. Go check out his storefront in the Stockyards (Sat 10–4pm) or sign up for a workshop. April private firings are fully booked. Keep an eye out for May dates dropping this week.

Fresh out of the private firing! These nerikomi pieces were fired on a custom schedule to keep the colours vibrant and reduce stress between the layers. There is only one private firing left for April. If you have a project or a deadline coming up, now is the time to reserve your spot. Link to book is in my stories and saved under “UPCOMING” highlights.

Glazing services are something I offer too, in case you didn’t know 👀 If you have a glaze project in mind, I can mix batches from your dry materials, run tests, and glaze your work for you. Whether you need help dialing something in or just want support getting pieces finished, I’ve got you. Possibilities are endless. If you’re curious, send me an email: [email protected] #kilnshare #ceramicglaze #cone6glaze #ceramicsofinstagram #ceramicstudio

What the heck is a kiln cookie!? A kiln cookie is a sacrificial slab of bisque-fired clay that gets a coat of kiln wash on it, and sits under your piece as a protective layer between your work and the kiln shelf. IF your glaze drips, the cookie takes the hit instead of my precious shelves! I keep a bunch of kiln cookies on hand for this exact reason. If you’re booking in and think something might run, just leave a little note and I’ll set it up on a cookie! #kilnfired #torontoceramics #kilnshare #ceramicstudio #ceramicglaze

Loading truly is like a game of Tetris, with multiple variations and considerations. If you do it enough, you get really good at looking at a pile of pots and figuring out the configuration before you even start loading. The last Buddy Bisque for March is coming up on March 30th, and the April Buddy Firing schedule is now up and ready to be filled. There are only two private firing spots left for April, so if you have a project or deadline in mind, now is the time to book it in. Sign-up link is in my stories and saved in “UPCOMING” highlights 👀 #bisquefiring #glazefiring #cone6 #torontoceramics #ceramicstudio
