This first batch of ceramics taught me a LOT about clay. These little projects would translate well to air dry clay as well if you don't have access to a community kiln! This is my new favorite hobby and I can't wait to make more for local pop-ups! 🤍 #art #ceramics #pottery #clay #

How to make “clay” out of egg cartons!
In reality this is basically paper mache but it does kinda feel like clay. This was my first time trying this and I’m aware it looks very bumpy, but I already did attempt number 2 and I made it a lot smoother. The more you break down the egg cartons the smoother it’ll turn out. #claydiy #DIY

Must-haves working with clay ⭐️
I solely hand build all of my pieces, and I do it from my apartment so that in itself requires special care to prevent messiness. I take my finished pieces to my local studio for firing. Aside from these tools, I also want to mention these tips: Use an air purifier + open a window! Clay is dusty
