How do I decorate my ceramics

Spraying

Spraying may sound easy but is not necessarily. Spraying the interior of a vase for example would be difficult, as the spray has little room to maneuver in the small space and is ejected again quickly, possibly spraying into your face. To remedy this, such vessels are first poured and the exterior sprayed afterwards. The advantage to spraying is that glaze cover is very even. This can be crucial with some glazes. Hint: to check the thickness of the sprayed glaze, scratch the surface with a pin. If it is of sufficient thickness, the scratch can be smoothed over by rubbing.
