Functional Ceramic Pieces

Here are my first ceramic pieces! In the design of my pieces I used three different techniques. I used the pinch technique in the scalloped oval dish. The snowman box is made using the slab technique, where I rolled out the clay then I cut out a top, bottom and four side to create the shape. In the pie shaped dish I used the coil technique. I found the coil technique to be the most difficult simply because I wanted the sides to be smooth and to get that look I had to work hard to work out the round coil shapes. Overall this was a very fun project and rewarding.
