Pottery stores have many wonderful gifts for the potter in your life. You do not even need a special occasion to buy a gift from a pottery store. As you will find out in this article, gifts are rather inexpensive and will truly be something that will make a potter happy and make them feel appreciated.
Walking into a pottery store is an interesting experience. You will smell the earthy scent of the clay, see pottery on display, likely the works of local artists and see racks and tables filled with pottery supplies. There are gift ideas all around you.
Clay tools are varied and are made in all shapes and sizes, which is why they are so useful to the artist. Even if you give your potter a tool they have never used before, you can bet they will find a new use for the tool. You may even be opening up a new dimension in their artistry. The pottery store will have a fine selection of the tools that potters use in their work. A wood clay tool will cost around a dollar. There are also sets available. The wood clay tool is for the rough shaping of clay, and all potters can use a new wood clay tool.
Clay bats are a round wood board that is used to attach the pottery wheel. The potter can throw a large object that can be removed from the wheel right on the wood bat. Most generally range from $15.00 to $20.00. Ask your potter what size their wheel is. There are standard sizes, but some potters have wheels that are not standard sized. It is better to be sure, but then again, no clay potter can have enough clay bats.
The Chinese have been throwing pottery for centuries and have a tool that most potters just love, a bamboo paint brush set. These bristle paint brushes are used to paint slip and glaze into pottery. Each brush costs about one dollar. Potters will use all sizes of brushes, so any you choose as a gift will delight them.
Clay is not easy to remove from clothing, so every potter can use a nice apron. You will want to buy a large apron that covers the whole front of the body. This will help keep the potter's clothes clean while they create their beautiful pieces.
A potter is not only a creator, but also a learner. The potter in your life will probably like a design book, showing different types of pottery and different pieces. This is a great inspirational gift that will likely help your potter come up with new ideas.
Your pottery gift will make the potter in your life happy beyond words. Showing you support them in their artistic efforts makes this a gift that they will truly appreciate. Just head to the pottery store to find many great gift ideas.
