I’m slowly creeping into the world of screen printing! I’ve been wanting to start working on different surface deco for the past few years, but I haven’t had much time to start the long research process. But I finally started this winter and hope to see how these look transferred to surface soon.

Getting a little milk frothing gizmo to mix up small batches of glaze and storing them in tiny containers with lids (also perfect for coleslaw) upped my glaze testing game! Hard to believe the old way I used to do this 🙄 Never stop learning!

I’m doing some glaze tests in the hopes of improving my satin glaze. The tough part, is that this is a multi-step process. A small glaze test can look amazing, but on a larger surface fail or just melt differently or react differently and suddenly all your hopes and dreams are dashed.

I sometimes wish I didn’t have to glaze! I love the underglaze matt colours as they are, but darn if the interiors don’t have to be food safe 🙄😂
