Pottery-making is not just a business of making practical objects. It's about expressing your creativity as well! Have at it — experiment with various shapes and textures and colors to create something very unique. Imagine the infinite potential of your hand building pottery.
There is so much fun to try in hand building pottery. Some are pinch pots, coil building, and slab construction. Every method will give you new ideas and skills that will help you make your favourite pottery.
This technique enables you to develop unique works that hold their own shapes and textures.
Handmade pottery enables you to make special pieces that are one of a kind and not able to be made on a wheel. Every piece is unique, great gift for someone special, or just keep it for yourself. If you learn how to do hand building, you can unleash your creativeness to create beautiful pottery that is ‘you’.
