Pottery Making is a process that involves creating objects out of clay. The process can be done using a pottery wheel or hand-building. There are various types of clay used in Pottery Making, including porcelain, earthenware, stoneware, and ball clay. Pottery Making can be an expensive hobby, with initial costs of $1400 or more to purchase high-quality equipment such as a kiln and pottery wheel. However, restocking pottery supplies can be cheaper in the future. Pottery can also be made without a kiln by pre-drying clay pieces in a kitchen oven.
