CLAY IT AWAY

EASY STEPS TO YOUR CLAY CANDLE HOLDERS

Here's how

STEP 1 Shape a ball of clay about the size of a tennis ball. Knead with wet fingers to make it more pliable, using more water if needed.

STEP 2 Throw clay down on marble cutting board several times to get rid of any air bubbles, then roll between both palms into a smooth ball.

STEP 3 Press on ball to make a flat base. Brush the ball with water.

STEP 4 Press a taper candle into centre of the ball to create a hole.

STEP 5 Slightly stretch the hole and smooth it with a wet paintbrush (the clay shrinks slightly as it dries).

STEP 6 Use modelling tool to score evenly spaced grooves from rim of hole to base of clay ball. Run brush through each groove to smooth and stretch slightly. Leave to dry for 48 hours.
