| I like thinking outside the box when I make projects. When given the assignment to create a ‘set’ I immediately thought of measuring spoons! I know… I was also thinking of food at the time… However, while still a set, at least it's a usable set. I wasn’t sure however how to make this added into ‘colored clay’ category. So instead, I used colored slip. Still colored clay, just a very soft version of it. However, the colored slip didn’t turn out as expected. The color of the slip turned into a gritty consistency, and makes it appear as if the spoons are molding. I glazed them over, and while they still aren’t perfect, it what fun to make usable spoons. I also found out the handle of the spoon was very hard to attach to the spoon head once created. In the future, I would want to create the spoon as one whole piece. Each spoon has the amount it measures at the bottom, and are completely glazed, and able to be used in cooking! :) |
