Dear Deborah,

You will need to reglaze and refire your piece. To get the glaze to =
stay on your piece, you will need to use something sticky such as a =
tacky hairspray or honey. It also helps to warm your pot before you =
reglaze it.=20

Now keep in mind; some glazes will run terribly on the second time =
around. You may want to take extra precautions to protect your kiln =
shelf. You may also choose not to reglaze all the way to the bottom of =
the pot.

Good luck!
