After doing different colour combos finally thought that the green and blue ones looked better then the purple/yellow ones and what do you know.....the purple ones sold out first so now I am left with a whack of green ones...T

Thanks for the great help Marcia, I would not be paying for any of the equipment and so on, just working the kiln. I will have to do some more research but I think this is not going to be possible with my skill level and resources. She seems to have the idea that it is relatively simple, I will have to tell her otherwise Don't want to waste her money and end up with a broken pottery studio, this is what I can imagine happening.

Somebody was talking to us yesterday about this clay you can fire into silver now that is something I have never heard of before. Think that is the route I will be taking! Sounds like there is a lot less that can go wrong.

Just google silver clay. It is great stuff. You form it into whatever you want, fire it and the organic material that holds the silver particles together burns out, leaving your item. Same sort of principle like paper clay. T

That looks to me like the leaves are glazed with a transparent green glaze, the pot was dipped in a transparent clear glaze and then copper carb was dripped around on top. T
