Make Your First Clay Pot: Step-by-Step Tutorial - Novice to Master #2

In this clay pottery tutorial video, I'll guide you through the process of making a clay pot for novice potters, using simple slab pottery techniques by crafting with clay . This step-by-step tutorial will help you transform a ball of clay into a beautiful, functional ceramic piece.
This video is part of a "Novice to Master" series in which I demonstrate pottery building with varying levels of difficulty.
In this beginner pottery guide, you'll learn:
- How to prepare your clay slabs,
- The right consistency for working with clay,
- Slab pottery techniques for cutting and joining clay slabs,
- Tips and tricks for achieving clean and precise edges,
- How to reinforce your pottery's joints,
- Finishing touches for a professional look.
Whether you're new to pottery or looking to refine your ceramics skills, this tutorial is designed to be accessible and easy to follow. I'll cover all the basics of slab pottery, from drying times to smoothing the clay, and even adding decorative elements like feet and perimeter bands.
