Woven Pattern Decoration

Thanks to Ken B. one of our members who sent in this interesting technique you might like to try.

Have some fun experimenting with patterns made by weaving strips of paper painted with coloured slips or underglazes then placing them onto a wet slab.

The slab can be rolled to embed the strips, or pressed hard over a hump mould. As the paper dries a little – peel it away to reveal the woven pattern.

Cover with a clear glaze or fire as is.
