How to Dry your Pottery

Hi I'm Betty Ingham on behalf of Expert Village. Okay this is all green ware that has been moved now probably 3 times we have moved it from our building to outside to dry and now we moved it in here to dry and now the next step would be to go into the electric keel. Now these has all been embellish like I have shown you a while ago sometimes you can put the peppers on them. This is ready to fire and the piece that we did a while ago I always check to make sure that there are completely dry and you can feel on them and if you feel any moisture in there you don't want to fire it because it would explode. So sometimes I just put them on my cheek and that way I could feel a little bit of the moisture. But you are going to put them in this big electric keel and this is one of the biggest ones that they make.
