1. Get a board
2. Get a hunk of clay
3. Wedge your clay to get out all the air bubbles, on top of the board.
4. Slap it into a ball
5. Put your thumb through the middle (Be SURE to not go all the way through)
6. Start pinching until you make a bowl. (Be SURE your walls stay thicker than your pinky finger)
7. Get a wet paper towel. Squeeze out all the water. Put this on your board.
8. Put your bowl on the towel.
9. Wrap carefully in a plastic bag.
10. Put your name on a piece of tape and place this in a visible spot on your bag.
11. Put it in the cupboard.
While you may be tempted to smoosh,stab, smear, throw, or eat your clay... Please don't. The more gently you handle your clay, the better it will turn out. For example, when you pick it up, ALWAYS use two hands.
