Handbuild at Home!
No studio? No problem! In times like these a kitchen table, a space with a tiled floor, a garage or any old place will do! Hand building with clay doesn't have to be complicated. As humans, we have an innate desire to create. And when we satisfy that desire by making something with our hands, we feel good! 

Even though we can't be in our offices serving you right now we are going to keep the inspiration coming to your inbox. So enjoy these low-tech handbuilding ideas. Let us know if you have any questions or if there is something we can help you with. In good times and in difficult ones, we are here for you!

This project is easy to do with the help of GR Pottery Forms Wood Molds. Stack three of their circular plate molds in different sizes to create a tiered mold that yields an angular bowl form. Follow along with our step-by-step instructions and you will learn how to create a hand-built bowl ready for decorative customizations.

The slow pace of coil building invites reflection on the architecture of the pot as you build it. The process of building, inch by inch, allows you to consider the effect each coil has on the form. Pinching clay in this methodical way can serve as a meditation. Breathe, pinch and develop something new.

We used a Bailey Standard Extruder to quickly produce these coils. But you can certainly create coils by hand-rolling them if you don't have an extruder on hand.
Here is a handbuilding project that uses heart shapes in combination to create a floral dish. This up-lifting form is the perfect Spring project!

This clever project comes from Bailey customer and potter, Vanessa Mattsson-Boze of Madison, Wisconsin. Send us your project ideas for a chance to be featured in an upcoming blog post and don't forget to tag your work #MadewithaBailey on social media!
