with this diy hello world clay bowl.

wanna see how i made it?
cuz i'm gonna show you either way. lol
you can get any modeling clay but i got this kit
from brit & co at target cuz it has pretty
much all you need except for a glass bowl.

just follow the directions.
first i tried only blue and white.

but i didn't like how it came out so i added the yellow.
then it came out "earthy" colors and that's when i decided to make the world like this:

i only meant to make a cool bowl but it's funny how the universe works when it comes to making things you didn't expect to make.
when i got the swirly looking world earth thing,
i still wasn't 100% satisfied so i rolled
some thin snakes and formed them into letters.
can you tell i was totally winging
this craft when i did it? lol

then i baked it according to directions.
and after it cooled,
i took the gold marker from the kit and did this:
