6 clay DIY projects

I did a bit of playing with clay at work yesterday. Naturally, this has now turned into my newest craft fad. (thinking about making “my craft fads” a regular post… they seem to change often enough. :P) I did a lot of ceramics in high school and LOVED every minute of it! In fact I was tossing up between doing a diploma in Graphic design after school or a Ceramics Diploma… My ceramics teacher had this to say… “If you want to make money do graphic design, if you want to never make a cent in your life, do the ceramics diploma.” 

Glad I listened. 😉

Our graphic design department was just above the ceramics department to I still got to oogle over their creations, but if I had done it I would have been in a class full of retired ladies. 😛

There really is nothing better than getting your hands dirty making something from clay. Definitely one of my happy places. 🙂

So as usual with this new fad fresh in my mind, as soon as I got home I hopped online and started checking out peoples clay works. I found a bunch of amazing DIY projects. Some are using Polymer clay like Fimo or Sculpey, others are using air dry or kiln firing clay. 

oh what I would do to own my very own kiln… 🙂
