With so many variables to keep track of-temperature, time, clay, glazes, vent circulation-it can feel impossible to remember what went right (or wrong) during your last firing. Well, not anymore. Pro potter and author of Pottery for Beginners Kara Leigh Ford has created the perfect kiln companion tool so that you'll never make the same mistake twice.

Unlike other potter's notebooks on the market, The Essential Pottery Notebook is built to be an all-in-one resource. It opens with a quick refresh on everything a potter needs to remember in order to fire their kiln accurately, such as how to use and read cones, why taking notes is important, and helpful reference photos. The rest of the notebook features specially designed write-in templates so potters know exactly what to record for more efficient and consistent results.

With this beautifully-bound spiral notebook in your studio, you're sure to become more confident and in control of your kiln!

This book will feature 18 reference photos and over 100 pages of write-in templates printed on wood-free paper.
