Clay Coil Pots

Using clay makes your hands sticky and gooey but it's so much fun!  
We rolled and shaped it and pressed it into pots.  





We had to persevere and sometimes we even had to squash our pots and start again.



We had to use a little bit of water on our finger to glue it together and then press the clay down carefully.



We dry our pots for a couple of weeks and then they can be fired at a very high temperature.
