Transcript

Good afternoon. Good afternoon. Georgie's is helping me make planters today! #planter #plants #pottery #cat #ceramics. I'm doing the first thing that I do when I'm doing these is I put this white slip on. This white slip is a wet dryer best. It works great on bisque. And I put the recipe up before, but you can find it on Cynthia Bringle. And I put the borax in this one to make it work on the slip. So, that's the first thing that I do on these pots to make them. So, that's the first thing that I do on these pots to create sort of an underlayment. And you can see when it's thick and when it's thin, it comes out different different colors when the soda fire happens. So, that's what these are going to look like in a few days.
