How To Make A Clay Village
Clay is a great way to pass the time on rainy days, or on any days! It unleashes your creative side, and it's very fun! You can entertain yourself for hours, and it's inexpensive! Who knows, maybe one day you may get so talented at it, you'll have your own business, and maybe, craft show!
Here's what you need:
Bake able Clay (about 5 different colors)
Tiny Beads (For the eyes)
Toothpick
Oven
Wood plank
Optional:
Legos
Popsicle Sticks
Soften your clay by warming it in your hands, rolling it out with a roller and folding it over and over for 8 to 10 times then roll a ball in the middle of your hands. That will be the head. Make sure it is really soft, or it won't bake correctly. Make it about the size of a dollar coin. I suggest using Sculpy III clay. NOT THE GLOW IN THE DARK KIND!
Make another ball, this time a bit smaller than the first, and make it a different color. Mold it into a triangle, and lay that aside. Try making patterns like stripes, with another color and mold it together. This part will be your shirt/pants. Do not attach it to the head yet.
Take a bit of the same colored clay you used for the head, and soften it, and roll it out into a small snake. Take the toothpick, and cut it in half. Roll the first half into a small ball and lay it aside. Do this to the other half and lay it aside. Try and not make fingers.
Now, carefully stick the head on the body, then add the hands (little balls we rolled out earlier) on the sides, and take out the color of clay you want to be the hair. (If any) If it is a boy, you can make a ball, flatten it with a roller, then place it on the clay figures head. And any details like spikes and curls with the toothpick. If it is a girl, you can flatten a ball, then add a snake of hair for the ponytail. Be creative. Do a Mohawk if you want!
Now for the eyes. Take two beads, then stick them on the figures face. Maybe you can add eyelids if you want a sleepy expression for your figure. Add any details on the face and body you want.
If you have a lot of clay, keep on repeating the steps.
10. Then wrap the ponytail into a really tight bun and secure with a rubber band. (See Figure 1.9)

To achieve this marvelous hairstyle you are to start with a small curling iron to curl your hair. Then with the help of a backcombing brush create volume at the roots in the back of your head. The next step is to complete the French braid but quite loosely, for doing it you need to begin on one side of the head in the middle back area and to end on the opposite side at the nape of your neck. If you desire you may leave bangs. To give a messier look it is advisable to use a rat tail comb to pull out some pieces thus gently loosen the braid. In case you feel the necessity to place the curls that have fallen out of the braid you may use bobby pins. And finally, apply some light hold finishing spray. In addition, this pretty hairstyle for long hair will look great on every woman that wants to make her round face appear slimmer. And, of course, long and thick hair is perfect for this
Prepare silica gel column. Add 6 g of silica gel in 20 mL of hexane to make a slurry. Block column with small piece of glass wool, add 5 mL of hexane and then add the silica slurry up to the 10 cm mark.
Before being able to actually apply the make up, the first thing is to get your products and then skin ready for the process. Start off by taking out all of the basic make-up needed :concelor, foundation, powder, make-up sponge, lipstick, lip gloss, eyeliner (liquid or pencil), mascara, hair tie, as well as face wash and face moisturizer. After everything is laid out in front of you, start with washing your face with the face wash, then dry your face off and apply face moisturizer. Afterwards, take the hair tie and pull of you hair back ( if needed use hair clips to pull your bangs back), this will prevent the hair from getting in the way and will allow you to see your entire face when applying foundation and powder. Finally once the moisturizer is fully absorbed and your face is completely dry, you are ready to begin applying the make-up.

Then, move the bowl to the side. Take the bigger bowl and break three large eggs. Whisk the eggs briefly until they form a smooth yellow ingredient, then you will add the caster sugar and whisk until you have a thick light yellow substance which looks a bit like a thick milkshake. When lifting the whisk and the mixture it leaves a trail on the surface for a few seconds, and you know that the whisk has done the job.
Fairly stiffed texture is mixed with clay body which is loaded into extruder worm screw force it into a die through pushing it along a barrel .depending upon how much clay will shrink in drying and firing process the die is made larger considering this The clay emerges as a continuous brick shaped column. Initially this is smooth but it can be modified by removing a thin sliver from the top and sides using a taught wire to produce a ‘wiredrag’ effect or by placing textured rollers over the column to create a rusticated effect or even by blasting the column with sand. The clay column is then cut into single bricks and palletised ready for the dryers or in some factories, are loaded directly onto kiln cars.
High impact practices are important to the development and engagement of students (Kilgo et al, 2014). Two high impact practices that have a positive impact on students are collaborative learning and undergraduate research (Kilgo et al, 2014). I think the high impact practices will give student affairs professional different methods and opportunities to help develop and support students through their college career. Student affairs professionals are going to have to learn how to participate to high impact practices and find ways to motivate students to do them (Schuh et al, 2011). By doing this I believe that student affairs professionals and faculty can bridge the gap to help success of
Once the supplies are gathered, the bead making process is ready to begin. The fimo color that will make up the center circle in the bead (in this case, yellow) is the color that is first readied. A piece of fimo with the diameter of a quarter and the width of a pencil, is pinched off from the larger slab of fimo. It is then rubbed between both hands in a circular motion until it is warm and no longer cracks when folded in half. Then, from that small, primed piece of fimo, a smaller, nickel-sized piece is pinched and rolled on a flat surface. The fimo is rolled into a cylindrical log that is approximately three inches long. It is important to ensure that the log is not too thin, meaning it does not easily pull apart.
Just a few simple words can always change your perspective on so many different things. From that point on, I found God in most of my day-to-day activities. I talk to Him like a close personal friend, I confide in Him in my times of need and thank Him for all the wonderful things He has blessed me with, including just life itself. He showed me how to live life to the fullest, or “grab life by the horns” and “live for the now, for today. Not for tomorrow.”
After that, you can form your clay. Generally, this is depends to your level or skill. But don’t worry if you have equipment like pottery wheel. If you don’t have that equipment, you could always use your hands but you need to be more careful.
Education is not just what your major is, it is also what you learn along the way. It's about learning about life and who you are. All the while becoming specialized so that you may contribute to yourself and society. It's a journey, and for those of us fortunate enough to embark on that journey I hope that we make the most of it.
