  • We’re back with another Pottery Pointers from WAC! Slow and even drying is critical to keep your pieces from warping or cracking. Here are some tips:• Cover pieces loosely with plastic bags/sheets, ensuring some air exchange to trap moisture and slow drying, preventing faster drying on rims/thin parts.• Draping a cotton sheet or damp newspaper over items creates a more humid micro-environment than open air.• Shield pieces from drafts and direct fans (which cause uneven drying).• Turn bowls upside down to dry the base more evenly with the rim.
