Notes :

 

1. Please knead your clay with few drops of water half hour before the demo. This will help clay to be pliable and save our time during the demo.

 

2. Keep a roll of paper napkins and a few wipe cloths handy

 

3. Layer your work space/table with cling wrap/parchment paper/wash cloth. This will help you with easy clean up after.
