I am a Potter

I make pots,bowls,cups,and plats.All of  this stuff is made out of clay,and after it is formed into a utensil it has to dry.After it has been dried it is ready to be painted and put on a shelf .We also use molds to make buttons and pipes.Often I use the same clay as a brick maker.Were not the only ones who make pottery ,farmers also do pottery in there spare time and sell it to their neighbors.Men who do pottery use their strong hands and not a wheel.
