10. Add about half the

water to the clay in the bowl.

11. Mix it with your hands

until it comes together to

clean the bowl. Add more

water or clay until it is the

consistency that you want.

12. Mix the clay thorough-

ly using your hands. This

helps incorporate the water

into all the clay and dissolveany remaining dry bits. You

will be able to feel if there are

any lumps.13. Knead the clay

Mixing a Paste

15. Dump the remaining dry clay into

the mixing bowl and add the rest of

scraper and place the wet paste into a

plastic container for clay. Place a

square of plastic wrap over the bowl.

18. Use the plastic water container

and press the plastic wrap onto the

surface of the clay. This is a very con-

the water to smooth the surface ofthe clay after you've applied it.

19. The dryer clay can be stored in

the same container, wrapped sepa-

rately in its own plastic wrap.
