How do I glaze my ware?

Mixing the glaze

Before we can use the glaze, we have to mix it. The liquid glaze tends to settle. If there is a noticeable layer of water on the surface of the glaze, it's best to use the electric mixer. Be careful with the mixer around long hair and loose clothes, and always make sure it's clean before sticking into the glaze. If the glaze is just lightly settled, it can be stirred with a stick. Many glazes will settle quickly as we work with them, so keep the stick handy.
