"Now you don't have to have glaze tongs in order to dip your pottery into your glazes. Another very traditional way of doing this is to mix up one of your glazes, remember to count, in this case I actually count to five. One, two, three, four, five. And that's how long I want that in there. Again, you're going to wipe the bottom. As you can see, I've only put glaze on about two thirds of this piece. Another thing I have not yet addressed, which is very important, glaze does not look the same color before it goes into the firing as it does when it comes out. This bright yellow glaze is actually going to turn a really nice muted tan. So now, the way that you can finish off a piece like this, you can either dip the other half in the very same color or you can take it and dip it into another color and overlap them, and you'll get three colors on your piece. You'll get the color of one, the color of the other, and the way that they mix together. This glaze is a two count. Wipe it off, and set it aside to dry. And you can kind of see the little line where the two overlapped. So we're going to have a muted tan, a rusty brown, and in between, kind of a swimmy, rusty, muted brown."
