How To Glaze A Dinnerware Set

In this video I show one of many ways I glaze dinnerware sets and one of thousands of ways to glaze dinnerware in pottery as a whole. I hope you enjoy the video!

I love your videos. Please show us the final fired pieces so that we can see the end results

As a retired professional videographer getting back to pottery after 25+ years, your videos have been so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. I started throwing dinner plates yesterday. Can wait to get back into community studio on Monday and try out your methods. Thanks again!

I just found your channel and I enjoy watching and learning from you very much. So in return, I thought I would pass along a hack you may find helpful. I am new to pottery/hand building, but not Art crafting. I've been making and selling my creations for over 35 years, so I hope you can use this tip. When you are glazing with a bottle, if you keep the bottle upside down by placing it in some sort of holder even when storing it, you will find you will have much less burping, fewer mistakes, less waste, and less aggravation. I drilled some holes in a cigar box to store my very small squirt bottles of paint upside down, and I haven't ruined anything from burping since. Your bottles are much larger, but you are the creative type, so I'm sure you can make something work for you. Great job, I hope my tip helps, I hope you have continued success! (love your toboggan, be proud of it!)

as soon as my regular studio opens back up from the coronavirus I am inspired to try my hand at plates. TY

very interesting Matt, you sure are organised :)

[diananesbitt]

How much glaze do you waste when spraying, and how do you clean the booth? Also, what do you do with the dish underneath? Watching you work is so interesting.

Love your work! And your music; some of which sounds like Leo Kottke. The two go together well. :0)

[telissalong]

Thanks for sharing MORE GLAZING VIDS

Love your videos Matthew! What type of air gun and compressor do you use? I have asked many people but most say a cheap brand that I think will not hold up well and will give bad results. Yours looks like it is quality.

I was so surprised to see a Venco pugger. I thought that all American Potters had a Peter Pugger.But yea up for the Aussie's

[sheilacarroll]

The bottle that your using like slip trailing has a long pointed nozzle. Where did you find this? Beautiful work. Very helpful and informative video. Thank you for posting

[lisayates]

Have you or can you, show how you make some of the different glazes you use. Thank you Eddies pottery in Illinois.

Great video, great tips! My one concern is that when you are at the wheel you are very quiet. Did you call the thing on your head a tobaggan? Here in Canada we call it a toque.

Very interesting. I have seen ash sprayed on pieces, but it was only mixed with water, then fired. So my question is what sort (colour) of glaze do you use and what sort of quantity? Cheers Bob 🇬🇧

[diananesbitt]

Do you end up with a lot of wasted glaze?

[lmd]

What is glaze exactly? What is it made of and how does it look so different after firing?

[cindyrodger]

Nice technique! Where did you purchase the squirt bottle?

[riobird]

But what kind of paint is used on food safe plates? I want to repaint my plain boring dinnerware but I don’t know what is safe. Please help!
