Five Easy Folded Pottery Projects! Don't FEAR the FOLD!

Ann details Five Easy Pottery Projects that use the Folding process. We hope this inspires you to try some new techniques in your work whether you hand build or wheel throw. It's also a relaxing pottery video to watch - don't you LOVE watching someone else work?
If you would like to learn Ann's underglaze painting, glazing, and decorating process then check out Ann's Video Workshop Series. These workshops are very detailed (typically 1.5 - 2 hours in length) where Ann provides step by step instruction and are designed to help potters take their work to new levels of craftsmanship and artistry. vimeo.com/showcase/6725318

The most straight forward and plain speaking tutorial video I have ever seen. On ANY subject. Keep up the great work.

[@joeljacq7486]

I absolutely agree. One of the very best. Only found this channel last week after pursuing many and l'm a pottery novice. But, l know good quality when l see it. ❤ it!

[@Daniel-jl6fb]

This has to be said, without your videos... I would have given up pottery. I have spent ages looking at videos and reading books to better educate myself, but they were always either to complicated or never quite explained stuff in a way I would be able to understand. But your videos have given me a new found confidence to try and create new forms using easy to understand techniques and simple to plan projects that create wonderful results. Thank you so much for keeping the pottery spirit alive.🥲

[@jimruel2121]

Daniel, thanks so much for the kind words. It’s gratifying to know we are reaching you in a positive way. It keeps US going. Best of luck to you in your ceramic endeavor! Jim

[@annruel1982]

Hi Daniel. I just saw your comment and it really touched my heart. Thank you for sharing your experiences and your kind words. I really appreciate you. I am glad you persisted in the studio. Good luck to you! 🙂

[@chrisdawson3859]

You have such a gentle touch. Even after doing pottery for nearly 20 years...I tend to over press sometimes... you give me hope. LOL

[@triciac1019]

All of it takes practice. You'll get there!

[@LuizaPortoArts]

You are very good at your art!! Congratulations!!!🎉

[@YvonneCeramics]

Love that way of texturing using the mat then adding more diversity to it. Always appreciate you sharing.

[@itsmesuzq]

Thank you so much! I’m in a ceramics club where I live and I’m going to tell our members about your videos. What a great idea to use a plastic pie sheet! I work with Steve’s White clay and high fire but I’m sure I can successfully achieve wonderful treasures! I’m so glad I found you.

[@Pherine1]

I’ve made a few of the envelopes Anne, they make amazing gifts, I love the other folded bowls as well, I’ll certainly try some of those, thank you for the tutorial x x

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Yes, great for gifts this time of year...especially when everything else seems to be sold out!

[@lorijohnson9061]

Cool! Thanks for sharing!

[@patriciahazeltine9986]

A pretty celadon would be nice on the triangle. Liked and shared!!

[@PaisanosRoostFarm]

Paisano's Roost Farm (American Blackbelly Sheep) in Southern New Mexico: The bird and lacy triangle plate I could as a modern version of milk glass. A pearly glaze would let the details shine.

Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

[@marisellestolz6755]

Hi Anne this is great ideas, thank you for sharing. I´ve thought this a few times, have to say it out "loud"...I love the way you speak during the videos, you tell us what you do and why but in a soothing way...love listening and watching your stuff.

Very helpful video. Thank you. Would love to see the finished glazed product. That's where I usually get stuck.

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Check out our glazing vid from 2 weeks ago...we glaze many of the pieces created recently. Thanks for watching!

[@marylaves6200]

@@LittleStreetPottery Thanks, I just found it. Lovely results and agree with your decision re re-fire some. Loved the triangle dish glaze combo.

I would like to make the cross pot but overlay the sides or cross over the sides so it looks like it twists around😍

Inspiring!

[@sylvia37857]

Love all your methods that you used in this Video. Just wondering since Iam a beginner and using air dry clay would the same methods apply. Thank you

[@JohnLowes]

You are having w-a-a-y too much fun 🤪😜😍

[@bethanhughes642]

Would love to see them glazed! Do you have images or a video of the finished products?

[@farzanezahrazarepour6610]

Oxide glazing are the best when you have delicate texture on the clay.

[@carlametcalfe4342]

Amazing

[@livewellwitheds6885]

1:05 _i love this so much_

[@cindyliu8117]

Love the idea on the altered rim of the thrown vase. Thank you! Do you do it right after it is thrown, or when it's soft leather hard please?

[@LittleStreetPottery]

While it’s still relatively wet...right after throwing and still on the wheel. Thanks for watching!

[@anngreen1649]

You are amazing.

[@maryalicecain859]

One of the Amaco celedons would enhance the texture and be beautiful. Maybe Jade or Fog, or Aqua, or almost any of them! Great ideas, thank you!

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Great idea!

[@tericarson3468]

Just Amazing‼️ T x

[@LambentLark]

The lace triangle bowl would be fun to do in mishima. Might be better to do that while it was still flat though.

[@jillsullivan7989]

Thanks

[@DenekiLakes]

I found it on Etsy. Thank you.

[@francesgribbon5322]

I love your videos! Informative, concise, and fun! Is it better to texture before cutting out?

[@LittleStreetPottery]

Sometimes yes. Just depends on the hardness of the clay and the type of texture. I've done both. Thanks for watching!

[@mayabrewington2176]

Ann, I love all your videos! The instructions are easy to follow and pair perfectly with the video. One quick question ---- where did you purchase the ridged mat? Thanks!!

[@LittleStreetPottery]

On line - there is a link in the description - thanks!

[@kathybrandt6060]

Your pottery designs are very beautiful. The throne vase that you made looks like a pitcher plant. Did you try to make it that way? I believe I will enjoy many hours watching you work. Hopefully in the future I’ll be able to try some of these ideas.
