I have gotten several emails requesting the recipes I mentioned in my
"Blue Snobbism" reply. Well, the red and yellow is my own glaze, and I'd
like to keep it to myself a bit longer. The lime green I buy pre-mixed
from Spectrum glazes, available online at www.bigceramicstore.com. Many
of these glazes are available to view on my webpage, under portfolio (be
forewarned, you need java to view). They are all cone 5/6, all fired in
oxidation. The others are listed below. Good luck, please let me know if
you try them, and enjoy!
