A CLAY BOWL
Materials
hardening clay
tempera paint
liquid detergent
shellac
an old sheet or a piece of cloth
Lay cloth on table or floor.
Put a large lump of clay on it. Squeeze and mash the clay to get rid of air holes and soft spots, and roll it into a ball.
Punch a hole in the center of the ball.
Use your fingers to make the hole larger and larger until the clay is shaped like a bowl.
