Brittany Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 I think I'm having potter's block. I can't seem to think of anything new to make and neither can my friends google and bing. If you have any projects or ideas that you would recommend to someone who started a couple of months ago it would be greatly appreciated. ~Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biglou13 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 go to your local library. look at dewey decimal number 732. ignore the collectible books. look inside. Many yutes (youth) of today have no idea what who Dewey is and what his decimal system does. Same youth have probably never fingered through a card catalog. Go analog!! :D/> What to make. Make a pinch pot/cup/bowl. While decptively simple primitive technique, it is quite difficult. and challenging to,make a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diane Puckett Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Bowls. Hundreds of them. You can always donate some to Empty Bowls. And just think how skilled you will be when you finish. If you are on Facebook, search for ceramics groups and pages. You will find lots of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claypple Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 The whole "Ceramic Arts Daily" is about new projects. Why go to the Forum instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Campbell Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 It's also Workshop season at craft schools from coast to coast! Take another class somewhere local or distant. Recharge those creative juices with a group of potters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
