Who is glaze testing in the studio? We are currently working through testing combinations of our 10 base glazes in oxidation. Thankfully, using our MudTools Test Tile Die, we can extrude over 100 tiles in less than 10 minutes. This saves time and work in the studio. Nailing our best combos prior to glazing finished work.

These tiles with then be used in the classroom for beginner students to better educate what their final pieces may look like. We often find this can be the make or break period for students. Getting that guarantee of a quality glazed piece after hours of failure and trying again on the potters wheel is a huge reassurance to them.

The MudTools extruder test tile did can be found on our website!

Today we are hoping to show up for another artist in the ceramics community.

After a devastating electrical house fire, Laurie, Morgan, and their dog Jess were forced to leave their home. While everyone is thankfully safe, the damage to their home and studio is immense, and the road ahead will be long.

Laurie’s studio space, work, molds, and tools now face extensive cleaning and recovery, and many of the business-related losses will not be covered by insurance. With her first sale of the year canceled and uncertainty around when she can safely return to work, this support means everything.

We have shared their GoFundMe link in our bio, and thanks to the incredible generosity of this community, they have almost reached their goal. It would be amazing to help carry them the rest of the way.

If you are able to contribute or share, every bit helps as they begin rebuilding this next chapter together. 🧡

We’re excited to see The Village Potters Clay Center reopening their doors in Asheville, NC. @thevillagepotters

Spaces like this are the backbone of our community. Places where people learn, share knowledge, and come together through clay. Their return and grand re-opening is something worth showing up for!!

If you’re in the area, stop by, support, and be part of their grand reopening this Saturday.

#thevillagepotters

Let’s continue to show up for the spaces that make this field what it is.

St. Pete Ceramics Studio has experienced a devastating fire, losing their space, equipment, kilns, wheels, and so much of what made their studio a home for their community.

For many, ceramic studios are more than workspaces. They are places of learning, connection, healing, and creative growth. Seeing a space like this suffer such a tremendous loss is heartbreaking.

They are now working to rebuild, and a GoFundMe has been created to help them recover and reacquire the equipment and supplies needed to bring the studio back to life. If you are able to give, share, or help spread the word, it would mean a great deal.

Please consider supporting St. Pete Ceramics Studio during this incredibly difficult time. We are holding them in our thoughts and cheering them on as they begin the long process of rebuilding.

STACKERZ are NOW live online!

A simple solution for something most of us deal with daily keeping tools organized, accessible, and where you need them.

Designed to fit our polymer ribs, STACKERZ allow you to magnetize your tools for easy storage and quick access in the studio.

As an artist, we use them to keep my most-used ribs within reach and off the table.

As an educator, they’ve become a way to map out projects placing tools directly on the board alongside assignments, timelines, and demonstrations so students can clearly see what’s needed.

Small tool. Big shift in workflow.

Now available on our website.

Please note: STACKERZ do not work well with Pink Ultra Soft ribs due to their flexibility.

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who picked up a Petal Knife today. The response was beyond anything we anticipated, and our stock sold out faster than expected.

If you missed this release, don’t worry!! We’re already hard at work to create more for another drop in the future.

As always, our email subscribers hear about releases first. If you’d like early access to future tool drops, restocks, and studio insights, be sure to sign up for the Mudtools newsletter through our website.

Thank you for your continued support!

A moment from NCECA in Detroit this past week. GM Modeler shaping the contours of a concept vehicle using our Long Scraper Stainless Rib.

Different material, different scale, same principles of form, surface, and control. It’s always interesting to see how tools move across disciplines and find their place in unexpected processes.

That’s a wrap on @nceca 2026. As always we can’t begin to express enough how grateful we are for each and everyone of you. You all have given our small family business such love and purpose in the tools we create at our home in North Carolina!

Safe travels home and we cannot wait to celebrate with you again next year in Baltimore, MD.
