🍐 Step 1

We take the clay to chop the piece that we are going to use, it is necessary to hold a lot since the trucker cannot be very thin, after we have already chopped it we are going to mold it until we make a ball and then crush it, as shown in the images.

🍐 Step 2

Now we will use our roller or a stick, whatever we have at hand, to finish crushing the ball since with the hand it is a hard pruning and it is not so uniform, when we have the thickness we want we will use the cutter To remove excess clay from the edges making a circumference shape, we remove all the remains until we have a circle.

🍐 Step 3

We lift our circle or clay plate, very carefully and take our container, or it can be made of glass or metal plastic, this varies according to what we have at home and the way we want to give our crafts, then I will place Carefully put my clay plate on top of the back of the container and the plate will take its own shape but we are going to mold it to give it a more structured shape, and that's how it remained.

🍐 Step 4

Next we take clay from the remains that we previously cut from our circle and we are going to make a clay stick, then we cut in equal or similar parts, and we are going to make four balls, as shown in the last image.

---

---

🍐 Step 5

In this step we are going to glue our balls on the back of our plate, for this we are going to dilute a little clay in water and spread where we are going to stick the ball, this is so that it sticks better. We are sticking something apart one by one because these balls are going to be the support of our plate.

This type of craft must be allowed to dry for two days before proceeding to apply any type of paint.

---

🍐 Step 6

The last part and the most fun, we will take the white paint and our brush to paint our fruit bowl, we will apply a double layer to give it a better finish.

Once we finish painting, let it dry for half an hour and that's it.
