Tips before you begin
Condition clay until pliable and smooth. Roll from the center outward, smooth visible bubbles, and feed folded slabs into the roller folded-edge first. Underbaking can leave clay weak: follow your clay brand’s temperature and time for the thickness and check the oven with a thermometer. Support delicate petals and thin joins, then cool fully before testing. Clean hands, tools and surfaces; cover unused clay and smooth marks before baking. Conditioning helps shaping; correct baking helps strength.
