How to make pottery by forming flowers with pottery wheels
After the operation, the clay should be shaped to the desired shape by the pottery wheel. To do this, you have to sit in a chair behind the machine and use your right foot to move the pottery wheel. Then place the required amount of clay on the wheel and shape it by hand.
To prevent the clay from sticking to your hands while working, you should use a container of water next to the pottery wheel and keep your hands moist with it constantly. After the clay pot has become the desired shape for the clay pot, it should be separated from the rest of the flower by a thread and placed in the shade for 24 hours. This will prevent the dish from leaking into the oven and then place the dish in the greenhouse or in the sun to dry and be ready to be heated and cooked in the oven. Of course, for embossed pottery, which is not easy to shape by hand, pottery molds can be used to create these patterns.

Using various methods such as embossing, carving, beadwork with beads or body glaze; Pottery can be decorated. Green, yellow, brown and azure colors are used to glaze the pottery.

Put the pottery in the oven
In the last step, the container should be placed in the oven and exposed to heat. Heat plays a very important role in the strength of pottery; Because by evaporating the moisture in the clay, the particles stick together well. This makes the pottery more durable. The dishes are placed in the oven and then the oven is turned on. For unglazed pottery, glazed pottery and pottery that is to be painted in a colorful way, different temperatures are used for baking. We need to increase the oven temperature slowly so that the pottery is cooked slowly and reaches the desired strength.
