Hey guys… I can’t quite believe I’m typing this…
I’ve got a kiln opening on YouTube tonight 🥹💛 Honestly… it felt SO strange filming it. I was stood there thinking “how do I even do this again?!” 😅 I felt really anxious beforehand, completely rusty, and at times my words just would not come out how they normally do. There are definitely moments where I’m like… who is this woman and what is she trying to say 😂 So yes… presentation-wise it might be my most “rusty Jeanette” video to date… BUT thankfully I was really happy with what came out of the kiln, which is the main thing! I genuinely have no idea what the algorithm is going to do with it after being away for so long — it might just quietly disappear into the YouTube abyss — but I wanted to share it with you all because you’ve been such a huge part of this journey. Being on the other side of everything now still feels surreal. It’s definitely shifted my mindset, and I’m just so, so grateful — for my family, for this community, and for being able to be back in the studio doing what I love again 💛 The video will be available to watch at 6pm UK time — I’ll pop a link below that should show it in your own timezone (thank you Gwen for that little gem!) Hope it works! <t:1776272400:F> And… if you do fancy giving the algorithm a little nudge for me, a like/comment on the video would mean the world 💛And if anyone happens to have any Hypes left and feels like using one… I think it helps?! 😂 (still figuring that one out!) ** Have any of you ever had that “first time back” feeling after a break? It really threw me! ** Big love to you all https://youtu.be/yttFNeltXRU?si=ENTGUDlAeZsLuuYQ

First Art piece in the store
First Art piece up on the wall by an amazing artist Anneli Pietikäinen. It’s up on the wall by the cozy coffee corner in the store. My store will be filled with different arts and crafts from several potters and crafters in Hälsingland (in my county). To help them get money and have a place to sell there handmade items. My husband got to be the model for the day, but he’s not for sale, just the art 😂 And the tree of life was also put up on the wall.

@Pat Webb Glad you liked my polka dot bowls! Thx
Curious—how long do you spend glazing a mug?
I’m collecting data and hope you all can help me out. Today it seemed to take me forever to glaze 11 pieces. Other days I can whip them out in no time. I feel as feel mood makes a tremendous difference. For me personally using two glazes and layering, maybe adding a bit of flux to rim, will usually take me 20 minutes. Don’t ask about today. It took way longer than that. So, how long do you spend glazing a mug?

@Diana Kio I usually pour the inside using my brush on glazes. I have several videos where I show this and an upcoming glaze along that will show it. It works well for me. I don’t do it necessarily to save time. I just think the clay knows how much glaze it wants. Plus Dante discussed it in a video that impressed me.
Is it just me….?
Rolling out slabs and making Toadstools this morning….but take far too long trying to sculpt a rain frog out of the left over bit of clay…. Started off as a Stone person…but obviously the clay had other ideas… 😁 Does anyone else do this? Would love to see your left over clay creations 👍🏻
