Making a bowl or plate with a form is one of the more simple and fast ways to make multiple, uniform pieces. Watch my video on how to make a slab bowl with leaf texture.

Supplies you will need include:
1) about 1 pound of clay
2) a grape leaf or a hydrangea leaf
3) a rolling pin 
4) some magazines for rolling a slab with even height
5) a knife
5) a blue rib, or an old gift card
6) a small bowl of water
7) a wooden smoothing tool
8) a needle tool, or a sharp pencil

9) a bowl form (can be terracotta, plaster, a heavy duty paper plate, or even a bowl from your kitchen. If you use a bowl from your kitchen, line it with plastic wrap, a paper towel, dust it with corn starch or spray it with a little lubricant so the clay doesn’t stick.)
