making a vase ⚱︎ ~ no wheel, at home pottery

[@ronjad7486]

Thank you for showing the process and the techniques!! It’s stunning 😍

[@KlayCeramics]

Thank you!✨

[@AllanRisk]

Looks great! Did you use joining slip to put it all together or did you just blend?

[@KlayCeramics]

Thanks! I just blended it together - the clay was still quite wet so it joined together nicely. If it was a bit more stiff I would’ve used slip.

Can i archive same effect with air dry clay ?? :D

[@KlayCeramics]

I'm not too familiar with air dry clay but I think so! :)

[@kaela.merrill]

how long did it take for you to do the first step? (just the little plate 2:07)

[@KlayCeramics]

The base doesn’t take too long, maybe 5 - 10 min?

[@pernillerauff7278]

is it self-hardening clay?

[@KlayCeramics]

No it's not, I used stoneware which needs to get fired. You can use airdry clay but then you can't keep water in it as it won't be waterproof

[@ahedsalloum3622]

Is it waterproof from the inside??

[@KlayCeramics]

Yes, it is stoneware clay that has been glazed on the inside as well and fired

[@thetopknotlife6801]

do you cover your piece overnight, or do you keep it open to air?

[@KlayCeramics]

Small pieces, like little bowls I just leave them open. But for mugs and vases etc. where I’ve attached pieces and they’re more complex I like to cover them so that they dry slowly

How much time did it take you to do it??

[@KlayCeramics]

It took me about 7 hours!

[@Hhajsjeieirhrbbr]

How much clay would this be all up?

[@KlayCeramics]

I'm not sure exactly but probably somewhere around 4kg

[@britemylove]

How long does a piece like this take you?

[@KlayCeramics]

For the making/ sculpting part about 7-8 hours. Then still needs to dry, be neatened and sponged, fired, glazed, and then fired again.
