Fired Pottery vs Muddy Buddies

Track every pottery project from wet clay through glaze-fired, log the clay body and glazes you used, and keep your studio photos in one place instead of scattered across your camera roll. Each project moves through five stages — planning, greenware, bisque-fired, glazing, and glaze-fired — with separate parts for sets and series. The glaze helper counts coats as you brush them on, so you don't lose track halfway through a complex application. Browse a catalog of over 1,500 commercial glazes from major brands. Save your favorites, log your own test tiles, and see at a glance which of your past projects used a given glaze. The community feed is optional. Share finished work, see what others have made with the same materials, and skip the social part entirely if you'd rather just keep your own records. Works fully offline. Sign-in unlocks community post publishing, cloud backup, and a public profile — but the core journal works without an account. No ads, no analytics, no tracking SDKs.

Muddy Buddies was built around a simple belief: pottery is better with intention. Whether you're tracking your progress, building a glaze library from scratch, or sharing your work with fellow potters, this is the place to document your practice and grow alongside a community that gets it. FIND YOUR POTTERY COMMUNITY - Share your work and see what fellow potters are making, wherever they throw - Leave hearts and comments on each other's pieces, the small moments of encouragement that keep people coming back to the wheel - Start a studio and invite your people with a six-character code, a link, or a QR code to scan - Studio calendar to coordinate open sessions, classes, and community events TRACK YOUR CREATIVE JOURNEY - Log pieces through every stage: Greenware, Bisque Firing, Bisque Fired, Glazing, Glaze Firing, Glaze Fired, Finished, Archived - Keep a stage-by-stage process journal with throwing notes, dimensions, bisque notes, and finishing details - Document what worked, what didn't, and build on it next time - See your whole collection in one place and watch yourself improve over time MASTER YOUR GLAZES - Build a personal glaze library with brand, application method, and notes - Record exact glaze layers: location, method, coats, dip time, and notes like "top half only" - Learn from your own history and see exactly how you achieved that perfect surface CAPTURE AND SHARE - Photo uploads for every stage of each piece - Share finished work to Instagram, Messages, and beyond - Your process, documented and yours forever Pottery has always been about more than making objects. It's about growth, the satisfaction of getting better at something hard, and the community that forms around people who care about the craft. Muddy Buddies is built to honor that. Made by a potter, for potters.
