  1. i think that if you make it small it makes it more enjoyable but if you make it huge it becomes a pain and no fun. but over all it isn't my favorite thing to do whe nit comes to clay.

  3. it is a little difficult to work with white clay but overall not that hard and after you glaze it looks really awesome with not a lot of effort

  4. Working with slabs is definitely more difficult that building with coils. If your slabs aren't too big it makes it a littler easier, but the slabs, if they aren't dry enough, flop around and break easily.

  5. i like working with coils sooo much more. Slabs collapse and you have to worry about making everything even. It seems like there more room for error with slabs.

  6. I like the outcome of the slabs and how they look more than I liked making them. they are hard to make, but it was fun because they were each a unique looking slab box.
