Learn to apply underglaze transfers to clay slabs and then use 3.5" round press molds to make up to six mini dishes from the printed clay! Underglaze transfers are like clay tattoos. We’ll have several fun designs to choose from. Press molds involve using an object to press clay into a foam block so the clay takes the shape of the object you use. It’s a fun way to make sets of handbuilt dishes!
