The Clay that Wanted to be what I didn't want it to be, but it became what it wanted to be

I needed to use up some clay.

I had accepted a challenge to create a textured object such as a bowl.

So I gathered up the clay.

I put them in a ball and mushed and twisted and turned and flattened.

I was determined to make a bowl.

Well, my first attempts just didn't work.

I decided I'd make a coiled bowl.

That's when the clay took over.

I had no choice.

This is what happened.

Sticks of clay that became earrings.

Braids became a bracelet.

Flattened clay became feathers for a pendant in my necklace.

I had no choice.

The clay rules!!!
