Experience the joy of handcrafting a Flower Vase without the need for a pottery wheel.
Follow these steps to create an elegant piece that will enrich any space:
Begin by cutting two circles from clay, placing one on a mould.
Use clay tools to shape the circle, then repeat the process for second circle.
Trim edges of both halves with a clay knife, then score and slip before joining the two halves.
Pinch the seams together, utilising your clay tools to compress and refine.
Employ a cookie cutter to mark the holes for multiple rims, then use clay knife to cut these holes out.
Smooth the entire surface with clay tools and a damp sponge.
Enhance the design by pulling up clay around holes with your finger to create small necks.
Create interesting texture by running lines over the vase with a ball tool.
This texture not only adds character but also provides glaze pooling areas.
Follow these creative steps to craft this unique Flower Vase, it is both functional and artistic.
Always remember, allow thorough drying before bisque firing, then apply and fire the glaze for the final touch. Your creation will serve as a sophisticated work of art, elevating your space with its distinctive elegance.
Happy Potting to you! 😀
