Get your hands dirty with our signature Coastal clay and create a substantial, sculptural Boring platter, just like a true potter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit allows you to step into the shoes of a real artist, crafting a beautifully designed platter along with a few pinch pots that are anything but ordinary. This isn’t your average DIY project; it’s a genuine experience in the art of pottery. The clay is the same high-quality material we use in our studio—designed for kiln firing, not just air drying. You’ll enjoy working with real, durable clay, just like the professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet aside 1.5 to 2 hours, gather your friends, partner, or co-workers, and dive into this hands-on creative experience. With everything you need included in the kit, all that’s left is to unleash your creativity. Follow the detailed, step-by-step instructions, and soon enough, you’ll have your very own sculptural Boring platter, ready for firing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce you’ve crafted your pieces, they’re not just for display—they're meant to be kiln-fired, just like any professional pottery work. Simply take your creations to a local pottery studio for firing, or return them to our studio. Your pieces will be ready for collection around 10 weeks later (depending on the kiln service you use), perfectly cured and ready to elevate your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemember, this isn’t just a kit—it’s an experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded in Basic Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOur signature Coastal clay\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeedle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSponge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemplate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVideo tutorial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat You'll Need:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRolling pin (or a wine bottle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge wooden board or suitable surface to work on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBowl of water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScissors (for the template)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe cost to have your piece fired and clear-glazed typically ranges from $50 to $100, depending on the kiln service.
