After the first firing, I glazed each of the mugs with a light tan glaze. I overlapped the tan with a dark red and white. The results are very cool. The red at the top turned a bit brown and the white over top gave all of the pieces a textured flowing cap.
The teapot was glazed in the same colors, the inside of the teapot is glazed with a dark red with gold flows.

Teapot holds just under 2 cups. Enough to fill both of the mugs :)

I have been making tons of bowls lately. I just took these out of the kiln, and they turned out great. I have been testing tons of new glaze combos and different techniques, all and all I'm just having fun :D
My Etsy shop is picking up and bringing in a lot of custom orders.
I have also been working on my website www.jmnpottery.com .
