Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
- Clay: You can buy clay online or at a local ceramics or art supply store. Choose a type of clay that is suitable for wheel throwing or hand-building.
- Pottery wheel or rolling pin: If you have access to a pottery wheel, great! If not, you can use a rolling pin and a flat surface to roll out the clay.
- Clay tools: You’ll need a few basic tools such as a clay cutter, a sponge, and a rib tool.
- Kiln: You’ll need access to a kiln to fire your ceramic mug. If you don’t have a kiln at home, check with local ceramics studios or art schools to see if they offer kiln rentals.
