So I'm going to show you how to pull an upside down handle for this little bottle form. I'm
going to take just a little bit of clay, kind of a handful, little nugget and I'll roll
it into kind of a carrot shape. I want this to be kind of a long, dainty handle. So I'm
going to start with a thin piece and I'm just hitting it against the canvas here to get
the form even and to get it flat on the sides. And then I'm going to take the end and hit
it at an angle. That's where I'm going to attach it to the pot. And I'm going to score
at the bottom here, that's where I'm going to be pulling from. And then I'm going to
score where I'm going to attach the top of the handle and then finally score the base
of the handle itself. And now, I can attach this to the pot and pull it into a long, elegant
handle form.
