CLAYCRAFT

A 'WISH' COME TRUE • A sparkle of joy among the horror and turmoil cancer can cause

THROWN SQUARED SOUP BOWLS • A bowl of this type, designed to hold warm liquid food, needs to wrap around its content in a wholesome way to prevent it cooling down too quickly and these soup bowls fulfil the brief perfectly

LINDA BLOOMFIELD MISTAKES IN GLAZE-MAKING • It is easy to make mistakes when making glazes. Here, I go through the process of how to calculate the amounts of materials in a glaze batch

PAPERWEIGHT PEBBLE WITH SGRAFFITO DETAIL • Whether or not you actually use a paperweight, these pebbles are enjoyable things to make and decorate. Sometimes it is just enough to have something lovely to handle and look at that you have made yourself

The Accidental Studio All systems go!

FISHY SPOON REST • If you like to cook, then you will know how irritating it is to have nowhere to rest the stirring implements when all those pans are on the go. ‘Simply use a plate’ I can hear you saying, but how much nicer is it to have a dedicated plate for the job – especially one you have made yourself?

THROWN TEXTURED VASE • In ClayCraft’s final thrown project we are showing you how to make a vessel, in part very basic but with a decorative technique completed on the wheel which is a little more difficult to achieve

My studio… Hugh Penney

A few closing words… Adieu to ClayCraft Jacqui’s farewell
