When You Claim Your Subscription to Ceramic Arts
Daily.Making
pottery has many rewards the forming of clay, the freedom of
decorating, the ordeal of fire they all contribute to your experience.
If you’re like me, though, you’re occasionally stumped when you get
into the studio and find yourself unable to decide what to make. With
“7 Great Pottery Projects” your troubles are over.
The
projects we’ve selected are presented in an easy-to-understand
step-by-step format. The photographic sequence pretty much duplicates
what you would see at a workshop or a demonstration with photos of all
the key steps included. Depending on your skill level, you can start at
the beginning or just skip through the instructions and look at the
specific directions you need.
The projects can be made with
most any type of clay and the surfaces decorated according to any style
you choose. You’ll want to use food-safe glazes for any pots you make
that will come into contact with food, and test your
pieces for dishwasher and microwave use
as needed.
Here are 7 Great Pottery
Projects - Yours Free With Subscription!
