This plate was the first clay project I made in the ceramic unit. We collected real leaves from outside and rolled them into the clay before shaping it into the plate form. When we first put it in the kiln the bisque came out with imprints of the leaves. After glazing and putting it through the kiln again this was the final product. This is a mug I made. The strategy I used was a pinch-pot method. I rolled the clay into a ball then used my thumbs to evenly hollow the inside. I used a stamp to make the star imprints, and used the yellow and blue because it reminded me of a childhood book or story. My final project used the slab method. I rolled out a flat piece of clay, cut out a rectangle and attached it to a circular bottom using score and slip. It's small size does get it labeled as a shot glass but it's more for decoration.
