My Project

Ceramics class is a happy, safe space for students to create their wildest ideas in clay. The only thing missing is glaze! Having a range of color choices for finishing work means so much to my students. They are able to fully express their ideas with a full range of colors and glaze effects to choose from.

When students have an idea, they're usually dreaming in full color, so having a full cabinet of glaze choices means the world to them.

I'm hoping that with these glazes and extra tools, my students' biggest, boldest, and best ideas can come to life!
