1. Find a simple slab vase template online, or experiment with creating paper templates by folding paper “accordion style” and cutting, like making a paper doll. Unfold and join with tape to check results.
2. Create a paper template and cut it from a compressed ¼” slab. Assemble the form by slipping and scoring along beveled edges. Weld seams.
3. With a damp sponge, gently push the seams outward. Pinch and manipulate the protruding seams into undulating waves.
4. Roll coils and pinch them against the table surface to create flat edges. Score along flat edges and attach. Weld seams.
5. Set the piece on top of a slab to mark the floor. Cut the floor shape and attach it using the slip and score method. Compress the underside with a rib to prevent cracking and weld the seam upwards.
6. Smooth and compress the surface. In crevasses where a damp sponge won’t fit, use a brush. Stipple a dimpled texture into the clay using the back of a brush. When covering a large surface area, it may be more comfortable to tape sponges to the handle for an easier grip.
7. Allow to dry thoroughly and fire to cone 04.
8. Using CG1003 Peach Party, CG1006 Purple Reign, CG1007 Blueberry Bubblegum and CG1009 Cherry Limeade, loosely apply them in patches until the surface is covered, allowing the patches to overlap.

1. Roll out a slab of clay for the base and compress both sides with a rib or plastic card. 
   
2. Cut a random shape from the slab to use as the base and create sand texture by poking the bristles of a stiff brush into the clay. Stack and attach offcuts to give the slab base some dimension. 
3. Roll out a smaller slab and manipulate into a shell shaped shallow bowl.  Roll and flatten two small balls of clay and attach flattened balls of clay to the top of the shell bowl. Roll out five coils about the diameter of a pointer finger and length of 6” and cut in half. Attach halves of coils to the back of the shell shape and smooth. Cut off excess coil length. Drape the shell over the empty bowl to create more depth. 
   
4. Gently roll up the pieces of cut coil into a ball to mimic the look of brain coral. Use the brain coil corals to help prop up the shell bowl onto the base. 
5. Scratch and attach the coral balls, shell, and base all together. 
6. Use the back end of a tool to add some rounded detail to the shell edges. Use a fingertip to smooth the inside of the shell bowl.
   
7. Roll out thick coil bits and attach them to create tall coral pieces. Score and slip to the base. Create texture by poking a toothpick end all over the coral. 
   
8. Create small pinch pots in various sizes for the cup coral. Use the back end of a pencil or tool to help create the small cups and texturize the lip of the cups with toothpick cuts and indents on the sides with the back of a brush. Attach to the base and sides of the shell. 
   
9. Create ball coral by rolling a variety of small balls of clay and use a sharpened pencil tip and poke to create deep divots. Score, slip and attach to the base and shell.
10. Allow clay to fully dry and bisque fire to cone 04.
11. Use soft glaze brushes to apply Jungle Gem colors to each area of the clay creation. Jungle Gems contain frit crystals that melt during firing and give bursts of color. In areas where you want solid color like sand, Stroke & Coat is a great option.
    
12. Stilt and fire to cone 06.

1. Create a cylindrical vessel with the Broomstick Method using a set of dowel rods with graduating thicknesses. Wedge 2 pounds of clay and slap it into a rough cylinder shape about the size of a soda can. Skewer the center of the cylinder with the smallest dowel. To establish a straight channel through the clay, it may be easier to poke through both sides and meet in the middle.
2. Holding both sides of the dowel, roll the clay like a rolling pin. As the hole widens, swap the dowel rod for a thicker one and continue rolling. Repeat this step until a cylinder with ¼” walls have taken shape.
3. Augment the cylinder using gentle pressure with a damp sponge, pressing in from the outside and pressing out from the inside to close the top. When satisfied with the shape, set the piece on top of a slab to mark the floor. Cut the floor shape and attach it to the augmented cylinder using the slip and score method. Compress the underside with a rib to prevent cracking and weld the seam upwards. Cut an optional hole in the top.
4. After cutting cat ears from the top of the cylinder, carve the cat pattern using a carving tool or dull pencil. Clay carving is best done in the leather-hard stage. Allow clay scraps to dry and sweep away with a fan brush.
5. Allow to dry thoroughly and fire to cone 04.
6. Using the sponge, apply SC006 Sunkissed to the top half of the cat.
7. Using the sponge, apply SC074 Hot Tamale to the bottom half of the cat.
8. Mix a 1 to 1 ratio of SC074 Hot Tamale and SC006 Sunkissed and sponge mixture in the center of the cat where the two previous colors meet.
9. Mix a 1 to 1 ratio of SP245 Specked My Blue Heaven and SC013 Grapel and use the Script Liner brush to apply three coats to the tail.
10. Using the back of the brush, apply dots of the same mixture randomly around the whole cat, avoiding the eyes and tail. Using the Detail liner, go around each dot with a thin one coat band of SC013 Grapel. Using the Script Liner brush, apply SP245 Specked My Blue Heaven in three coats around the previous circles of glaze. Using the Detail liner, go around each ring with a thin coat band of SC013 Grapel.
11. Mix a 1 to 1 ratio of SC016 Cotton Tail and SC012 Moody Blue. Using the Script liner brush apply three coats of the mixture in a ring around the previous rings of glaze. Using the back end of the brush, apply dots of SC013 Grapel over top of the second ring of SC013.
12. Apply three coats of SC016 Cotton Tail to the corners of the eye. Apply 2 coats of SC012 Moody Blue to the center of the eyes. In equal parts, mix a small amount of SC016 Cotton Tail, SC012 Moody Blue, SC006 Sunkissed, and SP245 Speckled My Blue Heaven and apply three coats of the mixture to the iris of the eyes.

6. Mark where the shapes will be reattached with a toothpick and remove the shapes.
7. Cut the basic shapes in half and manipulate the clay to create a more bone-like shape. (Pinching, smoothing, etc)
8. Scratch the flat back of the bone and the area of the slab where it will be attached with a toothpick.
9. Compress the bone to the slab, giving it a wiggle to fully connect the pieces of clay.
10. Continue steps 8 and 9 until all bone shapes are attached to the slab.
11. With your carving tool, carve down an indent between the bones and the edge of the slab.
12. Add texture to the bones and surrounding slab with various texture tools.
13. Allow to fully dry.
14. Bisque fire to cone 04.

1. Wipe down bisque bowl with a damp cleaning sponge.
2. Use a RB140 #8 Soft Fan brush to apply three coats of EG002 Speckled Buff to the inside of the bowl. While the last coat is still damp (darker in color but not shiny wet) polish with a shammy cloth of facial tissue without lotion. It’s best to prewash the shammy to soften and make it less abrasive. This shammy material can be purchased at most dollar stores. As you rub in a small circular motion, the engobe will become very smooth and shiny. If it dries completely before polishing, use the soft fan with a little water to dampen the color, wait for shiny wetness to go away, and polish. You may see a small amount of color on the shammy or facial tissue, but not a lot.  Polishing the surface will allow you to stamp color, without lifting the engobe color.
3. Use the RB140 #8 Soft fan to apply two coats of EG005 Black Engobe to the exterior of the bowl. Allow to dry.
4. Load a sponge roller with EZ012 Cobalt black. Roll the color in thoroughly so you don’t have parts of the roller with little color (showing white areas), and other parts with dripping color. Roll and lift about 20 times for even application.
5. Gently roll the loaded sponge roller loaded with Cobalt Black over the raised areas of stamp. You will see the shiny wet color on the raised areas.
6. Quickly lift the stamp and flip it over and place it on the surface of the polished Speckled Buff Engobe area. Hold one side while pressing the other. Switch and hold the other side of the stamp while pressing. Try to do this quickly, or the thin application of color will dry on the stamp. Work your way with various stamps, slightly overlapping each as you cover the entire interior of the bowl. You may only use part of the stamp to fill in areas along the edge of the bowl. Apply color to the stamp each time it is used. It will only stamp once with an application of color. Dry color on the stamp will look greyer in color.  
7. Center the bowl on a banding wheel and use a dagger brush loaded with slightly thinned EZ012 to band the lines around the edge of the bowl.
8. Load the tip of the DB805 Fan Dry Brush with slightly thinned EZ012 and flick the bristle toward the surface of the bowl to add a speckle over the interior.
9. Apply two coats of SW001 Stoneware Clear to the inside of bowl. Be careful applying the first coat of glaze since the black EZ Stroke can smear when it gets wet with glaze. (Don’t overbrush.)

4. Center the bowl on the banding wheel and spin while touching down the RB140 #8 Soft Fan to streak the EZ Stroke colors into the wet Speckled Buff. You need to work quickly while the colors are wet to create a good blend.

Make random, irregular strokes around the neckline, so that there won’t be a distinct border between the top and bottom.
5. Pour out around 2 TBS of EL-101 Oyster Shell onto the palette (don’t use the glaze from the jar because you might pick up some crystals from Step #4 while applying this glaze). Use the Soft Fan to apply 2 coats over the top half of the hen. Avoid the eyes, beak, comb, and waddles. Overlap the glaze on the bottom half by around 1 inch. Make random, irregular strokes around the neckline, so that there won’t be a distinct border between the top and bottom. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
6. Use an X-ACTO knife or damp sponge to remove any glaze from the eyes, beak, waddles, and comb.
7. Using the Script Liner with SC-16 Cotton Tail, apply 2 coats to the eyes. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
8. Using the Script Liner with EL-143 Cactus Flower, apply 2 coats to the beak. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
9. Using the Script Liner with EL-127 Rose Granite, apply 2 coats to the comb and waddles. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
10. Squeeze out around 1 tsp of SC-15 Tuxedo onto the palette. Dip the pencil eraser into the glaze and stamp a pupil on one eye. Repeat for the other eye.
11. Cut out a small square of cardboard. Around 1.5” on each side. You will be using the side with only straight lines (not the corrugated side).
12. Pour out around 1 TBS of EL-101 Oyster Shell, EL-118 Blue Grotto, PC-601 Clear Cascade, and PC-602 White Cascade onto the palette.
13. Take your piece of cardboard and dip one of the edges with straight lines into PC-602 White Cascade. Stamp around the neck of the hen, where the 2 glazes overlap. Continue dipping and stamping until you go completely around the neck.
14. Repeat Step #12 with EL-118 Blue Grotto. Make sure to stamp over some of the glaze from Step #12.
15. Repeat Step #12 with EL-101 Oyster Shell. Make sure to stamp over some of the glaze from Step #12 and Step #13.
16. Repeat Step #12 with PC-601 Clear Cascade. Make sure to stamp over some of the glaze from Step #12, #13, and #14.
