•
- Begin with a small ball of clay
- Use your thumb to press a hole in the centre of the ball
- Turn the ball in the other hand as you squeeze and pinch upwards.
- Feel the walls up and even out the thickness with your fingers
- Place the finished form upside down to rest
- Repeat the steps above to create an exact replica
- Score the lips of the form and slather some slit on
- Put these two forms together, joining them to form a sphere
- Score the joints together and smoothen out the surface
- Allow the sphere to stand overnight to become leather hard before you begin to work on decorating it
