7   If you make steps 1-3 with a thick base, then you will be able to add small legs onto the bottom using your thumb and your index finger to pinch the clay. A tip: If cracks appear in the pottery once dry, you can repair these by mixing a small amount of clay with a bit of water for a creamy consistency. Fill the crack with the mixture, preferably with a brush. Leave to dry. The repaired area can be sanded smooth with a sanding sponge or with fine sandpaper.

9   Cut a hole in a piece of card for masking. Important: The hole must be smaller than the opening of the clay item, thus avoiding spattering paint onto the rim. You will be able to move the piece of card around slightly when spattering paint, making sure to spatter only onto your chosen areas. Remember to cover the rim at all times.
