Heart Trinket Box

You are going to fall in love with making these sweet little heart trinket boxes. We will be using basic slab building techniques to make the box and lid. We will also explore other box shapes that can be made using the skills taught in this class. These are a great project for testing out textures and glaze combinations. These boxes are perfect for holding your little treasures and make a great gift. This class is perfect for all ages and skill levels. *These can also be made from air dry or oven bake clay and painted with acrylic paint but they will not hold food or liquids.

Class will play on our custom platform at www.clayshare.com.
