* Ceramics Insider Tip ~ Best Kept Tool Secrets

Have you ever looked into a tall greenware vase, cup, teapot, or the like and been upset to find a lump, bubbled section, or raised area in the bottom? Well sometimes it doesn't matter, but many times people can see the bottom of the inside of the piece, and lumps look bad on your beautiful creations.

We are so happy to announce that Creative Glazes now carries a WONDERFUL tool that you can use to make the bottom of your pieces as smooth as you would like. The DPC Deep Cleanup tool is one of the best kept tool secrets. The DPC and its shorter brother, A2, Deep Cleanup Tools have well shaped, beveled stainless steel ends, which are perfect for reaching into and smoothing uneven places and small bubbles at the bottom of your tall greenware items. Take a minute to check out these spectacular tools here, you'll be glad you did:
