What type of glaze do I need to bisque tiles? Any experts with a few tips?

I actually want to paint a bisque wash basin. They have matching toilets as well, but I could never find a kiln that big! I want to make a few tiles as well. Someone gave me a site but it only told the history, sold there own tiles & had no crafting tips. So many sites selling. My question is what brand name& type of glaze or underglaze & sealer am I looking for? Not that paint or tile that I can’t fire. It has to be waterproof & functionable. Is there a site that has step & where I can order such paint. What kind of bisque or pottery am I looking for? I am very artistic and I know I can do this, I just need the basics and the right supplies. If someone knows or has done any of this craft please advise me. There are no classes to take anywhere near my home.
Here is an example of what I want to do.

Anyone have any staining/painting tips for craft painting on bare wood?

That was hard to put into words. I’m learning onestroke painting. I have some bare wood plaques that I’d like to paint on. When I stain them first the paint hardly shows up (it’s folk art acrylic paint) and when I leave them bare the paint shows up fine but the overall look is just plain I guess. I am looking to find some tips from other crafters, ideas of stains or other finishing products to use and what steps I’d take to accomplish this! Hope this is worded well enough! Thanks for any help at all!
