How do I test my glazes?

Types of test tiles: Round textured tiles

Using cookie cutters make round tiles with a decent sized hole a little in from one edge. Leave one half smooth & flat and use any method you like to create a raised pattern of some sort on the other half, so you get an idea of what the glaze would look like on an incised or impressed surface.
