To re-glaze or not to re-glaze...Is it worth your time and energy?

After collecting a shelf of unpopular pieces, I debated tossing them or re-glazing... See my results below:

When I originally glazed the bowl on the left, I was hoping for the light blue on the smooth bowl on the right.  After firing to cone 5, the bowl came out green.  I decided to fire it to Cone 6 with no additional glaze and it came out dark blue!

And the Re-glaze color... It would have helped to remember the stilt!

So basically re-glaze DOES work a majority of the time!  I am really happy with most of my results.  Let me know what you think!
