Now sometimes you're going to want to have a different color on the inside of the piece than you are on the outside lip. The way that we achieve that result, is we get a little pitcher, stir up your glaze, always stir your glaze before you use it, and then you can take this glaze, pour it right into the inside of your piece and turn the pot as you pour the glaze out. Now you've got glaze on the inside and not on the outside. And to achieve, to really make this result dramatic, you can wipe off the lip, so that you don't have any of that glaze there. And then the next thing you're going to do is take that pot, this one isn't waxed yet so I'm just going to show you by holding it, this is in that you don't have to wax, you can also do it this way. See we have no glaze on the bottom. You get sort of a more natural line. But now we've got two colors. One on the inside and one on the outside.
