There are so many variables in creating pottery, but how much do you keep clay shrinkage in mind?
To the left is a glazed mug, to the right, a bisqueware mug. They were both the same size as bisqueware!
Shrinkage varies depending on clay type, firing temperature, additives, and the grace of the kiln gods.
If you ever think, "Maybe this is too big..." when you throw something, just remember, it is likely going to be smaller than you think!
More One Night on the Wheel Workshops this Summer!
Ever wanted to try the wheel? Join James in the studio to get a taste of the wheel, or just to have some fun and create something!

Join Doug in the studio to level up those pottery skills!
In Beyond Beginner, the emphasis will be placed on making bowls and cylinders of various shapes and sizes, lidded pots or 2-part pieces, AND having lots of fun while playing with the clay.
