Yesterday we were on ITV news.

The temperatures in the UK this summer are lush🌞🌞…. But not when trying to fire ceramics and work in a studio where kilns are on.

Unfortunately we have lost thousands of ££ worth of stock due to kilns failing and the glaze being ruined. The kilns turn off if the computer board is too hot (70 degrees Celsius which means the room is above 40). When the room is already at 32 in the day time… it doesn’t give much space to get warmer when the kilns go on.

We also have paid out more to fire kilns as when they fail, sometimes they can go back on and then we pay the cost again.

We have had to cancel workshops because it is too hot and send staff home early.

And lastly we have been quoted £10k for kiln ventilation (that I enquired about in May) but they can’t install until September due to how busy they are.

This time of year is our ‘quiet’ period, when we build stock for the rest of the year. It’s honestly been 3 months of apologising to customers about delays due to hot weather and we haven’t been making stock for Christmas. It’s relentless.

However, what itv didn’t add, was me saying it’ll be fine though. You know why? Because my business is coming up to 7 years. That’s 7 years of learning to adapt, learning to manage cash flow and spend money when needed and building an incredible customer base. We’ve survived covid … what more can I say! This is a bump in the road. The long road. And bumps just add opportunity to learn and grow 🙌🏼 we obviously appreciate all patience, support, shares and sales but we will be okay 🧡💪🏼

Only 2 days to go until our Summer Seconds Festival 🙌🏼 another stall holder is Claire Cushnahan Ceramics 😍 Claire creates one-of-a-kind ceramic pieces from her home studio and through her work at Ruskin Mill, where she is deeply connected to the natural world, and the unique qualities of clay.
Rooted in ritual, femininity, and organic forms, Claire’s work explores shape and colour. Each piece is hand-built and entirely unique, shaped by the unpredictable nature of the making process.
This collection of studio seconds features pieces that didn’t quite follow their original path - a glaze that moved unexpectedly or a form that evolved in its own way, but each still holds its own charm and character.
Available at a reduced price, these are small offerings from the studio: handmade pieces that celebrate the imperfect, the unexpected, and the beauty of things made slowly by hand.
See you Saturday!
