So here’s a cool place to check out: Glaze21 exists. It’s a glaze archive, which you can find here and there on the interwebs, but this one’s better in three important respects:
1- It’s got more people sending in submissions than the other ones, which means more recipes, more testing, and much more commentary on success/failure/issues.
2- It’s searchable!
3- The plan is to eventually have colour photos of each glaze, on various clays.
I am enjoying having a poke through it.

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)

Heya,
Has 21st century glaze project gone away or just moved?
Oh shit. Looks like they might have lost their domain name… I’m not sure where/if they’ll pop up again. :-(
