Is there such a thing as too many glazes? 🧐🎨

🔥

This question came up recently under a video by Lori B., and I’d really love to bring this discussion into our skool community. ❓❔❓❔

I’m honestly very torn.

I own a lot of glazes — and I do make a conscious effort to use the ones that usually play only a minor role in my glaze choices. Still, I sometimes feel that the number of glazes I have now is so large that I probably couldn’t use them all up in a lifetime.

And yet… there are moments when it suddenly feels like it’s not enough.

Then I catch myself sitting in front of my laptop, adding one or two “missing” glazes to my cart. 🙈

So I’m curious:

Are you disciplined when it comes to glazes? 🙅🏼‍♀️
Do you have a small, favorite selection that you stick to?🙋🏼‍♀️
Or do you also enjoy experimenting and collecting?🙆🏼‍♀️

Is there such a thing as too much?

And if yes — what is too much? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Is there a number where you’d say: that’s enough?

I do think pottery is an expensive hobby. But right now, there’s honestly nothing else I spend money on — except traveling and pottery. Being on the road, discovering new places, and sitting in my studio making things (besides my regular work) is such a big part of my life.

I’d love to hear your thoughts. 💬

How do you feel about glazes?

How many do you have?
