Today we are going to be making a clay model of an ivy leaf. We are working through the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Hermione Unwin and this is model #27. If you've been following along with us, you'll know that we've made leaves before, so we will be referring back to those models as we work through this one. As homeschoolers, this is part of our Charlotte Mason education. Did we have an ivy plant growing in our home? No. So again we set out to find the object for our clay modelling...

Our next project in our clay modelling series for homeschoolers is a clay model of an almond nut. This is model #26 from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Hermione Unwin. Model by model, we have committed to working through this book as part of our Charlotte Mason education. This model is done in a similar way as model #3, which was a plum. The project begins in a similar way, but ends in a way that is unique to the almond nut. Materials Needed The book, A Manual of Clay Modelling by Hermione Unwin (or free online HERE) Modeling Clay (the book suggests...

We're back to the cockle shell! If you are following our clay modelling series, you will remember clay model #19, a cockle shell which was modelled while faced downwards. Today, we will be making a clay model of a concave cockle shell. We will be taking that same cockle shell model and positioning it facing upwards. These projects, by the way, come from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. Materials Needed The book, A Manual of Clay Modelling by Hermione Unwin (or free online HERE) Modeling Clay (the book suggests red terra cotta clay) Clay modeling tools (this kit includes many tools, along with a...

Starting a new project is always a little exciting. I was especially happy that this project did not require some weird, unobtainable object. Our project today is model #24 from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin, a clay model of a banana. There were no big curve balls thrown at us with this project, and the bonus part is that you can eat it when you're finished. Materials Needed The book, A Manual of Clay Modelling by Hermione Unwin (or free online HERE) Modeling Clay (the book suggests red terra cotta clay) Clay modeling tools (this kit includes many tools, along with a sponge and wire...

It's time to tackle model #23 in our clay modelling homeschool handicraft series. This lesson is a clay model of a pomegranate, from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. The majority of directions for this model are referred back to model #1, a clay model of an orange, our very first attempt at clay modelling. Materials Needed The book, A Manual of Clay Modelling by Hermione Unwin (or free online HERE) Modeling Clay (the book suggests red terra cotta clay) Clay modeling tools (this kit includes many tools, along with a sponge and wire to cut the clay) An modelling board with an armature – hopefully...

Today in our clay modelling homeschool handicraft series, we are making model #22, a clay model of a walnut, from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. Think of this model as model #3, a plum, but with more details added. The walnut at first appeared difficult, but when broken down in simple steps - many which we have already accomplished - this model became very straight forward. So, before we even start, be sure to approach this clay model with a positive, can-do mindset. Finding a walnut may not be as easy as it sounds. Once...
