Today, we have a very enthusiastic chat about February’s Snart theme! This month, we’re going to talk about all things clay! I’ve got ceramic artists to share for inspiration, books to check out about the history of clay in the world, ideas for the types of clay to use for your projects, activities to do outside the home that celebrates ceramics and list of project ideas that range from fine art to artisan crafts. It’s a good time. Also, I’m pretty sure I mispronounced Ashmolean, so please just giggle to yourself and don’t mention it in the comments, ok thx.
