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...

Today in our clay modelling homeschool handicraft series, we are making model #21, a clay model of a bon-bon dish, from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. We found this model very similar to model #11, a clay model of a saucer that we did several weeks ago., as well as model #12, a clay model of a plant pot. Each were made from small balls of clay, which were then formed into small dishes with six curvatures around the edge. This version was fun to make. Unlike many of our clay models, we decided to...

This week, in our homeschool handicrafts lessons, we are going to be making a clay model of an egg, from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. These lessons are supposed to be gradually increasing in complexity as you work through the book. This lesson seemed to take us back several lessons to Model #3, which was a clay model of a plum. In fact, the egg seemed to be even simpler than the plum! Although the egg takes a little more shaping, the plum had more details. But you be the judge - watch our...

Have you ever attempted to make a clay model of a cockle shell? You'd think it was a simple little project, but I'm here to tell you, it's harder than it looks! We are working on the 19th model from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin, which is a cockle shell. Some lessons in this book seem very simple and straight forward, a logical progression from the lesson before. But this lesson was a bit of a jump. With all of the intricacies and details, this clay model of a cockle shell gave us a...

We are back today to make a clay model of a carrot. Let's get a big cheer for the fact that we didn't have to substitute or spend an entire day hunting all over town for our model! This one was sitting in our kitchen pantry, just waiting to be used. The carrot is model #18 from the book, A Manual of Clay-Modelling by Unwin. This model brought together the last several lessons, providing valuable practice in creating forms, modelling the form, and adding detail to that form. Materials Needed The book, A Manual of Clay Modelling by Hermione Unwin (or free...
