DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Coil Pots
Materials:
Instructions:
Choose and prepare one of the clay recipes (or use store bought clay such as
Sculpey clay). All of the recipes work fine and depend on the ingredients
you have on hand. I prefer the last version
Instructions:
- Make a flat "pancake" of clay. This will be the bottom of your
pot.
- Roll remaining clay into long snakes.
- Coil the snakes around the pancake of clay, building up the pot as
you go.
- You'll need to squeeze the snakes onto the pancake and onto each
other a bit so they stay together when the project dries
- Let air dry or bake dry depending on the type of clay you are using.
- Use acrylic paint to decorate the pot however you like.
- Let dry
