pottery at its finest

i saw these cute tiny clay pots on pinterest and instantly fell in love. i love the quirky style, so the handmade pots were a must.

S U P P L I E S :

-oven baked clay

-melon baller

-acrylic paint

-paint brush

D I R E C T I O N S :

so all oven baked clay is kind of hard. word of advice, be patient. it softens as you play with it in your hands. i wanted the pots small, but bigger than the ones i saw on pinterest. so i used a whole block of clay. for these pots, i rolled both into a ball, then molded it to the shape i wanted, then scooped out the center with the melon baller. next i baked them at 275 degrees for 25 min. let them cool for a couple hours, then paint!

i think they speak for themselves. so cute!

while at michael's, i saw the clay and knew instantly i wanted to make something out of it. i thought for my first clay experience i would do something simple. so magnets it was! needless to say, i love.

S U P P L I E S :

-oven baked clay (purchase from any craft store)

-acrylic paint

-magnets

-knife

-paint brushes

-glue gun

D I R E C T I O N S :

take the clay, and make whatever shapes you want. put them in a oven safe pan and bake at 275 degrees for 15 min. let them cool for 30min- 1 hour. then, hot glue magnets to the back. paint the front however you wish!
