I hope you were following along with us as we make a clay model of a saucer in our last post. Today's model is meant to be made along with the saucer, as they are two pieces of a matching set. The clay model of a plant pot that we will be making today is model #12 from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. Along with making the saucer, making these two models are the first time that we are creating an object without an original piece to copy. This makes the process more creative and...

We are officially 1/6 of the way through the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. We've questioned ourselves a few times as to why we decided to do this video series. There are 60 models in this book - and we are determined to do every single one of them. It was only a few weeks ago that I was sitting down looking over this book, feeling rather overwhelmed. But as with anything, when you break it up into small pieces, it becomes very do-able. Not only that, but it is important to us to do...

Today we are continuing to work through the book, A Manual of Clay-Modeling by Unwin. In this post, we are going to be tackling model #8, which is a clay model of an acorn. We took a stroll through our neighborhood and found a little acorn, so that's what we'll be using. In this model, we are instructed to build a slab around the armature that is 1.5" in height. We are also instructed to create our acorn to be twice its natural size. The purpose of this is so that the armature does not...

We are slowly working through the book, A Manual of Clay-Modeling by Unwin in our clay modelling series. In this post, we are going to be tackling model #7, which is a clay model of a pea pod. There were definitively some new skills incorporated into this model, which you will immediately notice if you’ve been following along with us in this series. It had some extra detailing, however, we found it to be a quick project. You may not have a pea pod laying around. It's still winter where we live, so there is no garden growing,...

Today we are tackling the 6th clay model from the book A Manual of Clay-Modeling by Unwin. This model is of a clay model of a lemon, and if you've been following along with us in this video series, you'll find that this was fairly easy. It employed many of the same techniques that we had used in previous models, making this session fairly short in comparison to previous ones. Our work with clay modelling is part of a project to incorporate Charlotte Mason's teachings into our homeschool. We've followed the Charlotte Mason philosophy in our homeschool from...

Today we are continuing our progress through the book A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. We've made it to the 5th model, where we will be making a clay model of a piece of broken stone. We grabbed our broken stone from the side of the street. As it's supposed to be, this model was definitely the most challenging to date. It introduced a couple of new skills; instead of assembling our clay shape and putting it onto the armature, this time we were directed to build up around the armature. We also began working with varied shapes, instead of...
