After the park it was time for our second stop...the pottery shop

"Pottery?"Vanessa said looking up at the shop

"Yup"

"But you know I suck at art"

"We'll now it's my turn to teach you something" I said as I open the door for her

Vanessa looked around the shop

There was spinning tables,paint, brushes, craving tools everywhere and the air was filled with the scent of clay.

Then a lady came up to is

"May I help you?" She asked politely

"Uh yes we would like to make two pottery projects"

"One for each?" She suggested

"Yes"

"This way" the lady started leading us through the store

She gave us two trays and a pound of clay each. Then she gave us a set instructions.

"First, you go to the spinning wheel to shape your clay. Next, you go to the craving tables to put details on your pottery. Then we'll fire it up and finally you can paint it. Any questions?"

"Uh.." Vanessa started saying but I cut her short

"Nope, were good thanks"

"Okay we'll you pay at the end and if you need any help just ask" the lady said walking away

"Sure"

"Now to the spinning wheels" I said grabbing Vanessa by the shoulder

"Oh uh...okay" Vanessa said nervously

"You sit here" I patted the seat by the spinning wheel

"Ok...now what" Vanessa asked looking at the spinning wheel curiously

"Now you put your clay on the spinning wheel and shape it" I said sitting down next to her

"Yeah...And how exactly do you shape it?"

"We'll you push the pedal down there with your foot and move your hands up and down the clay"

"Oh like this?" She started pushing the pedal and shaping the clay

"Yeah but you might want to dip your hands in water to make it easier"

"Right..."

Vanessa dip her hands in water and say back down. She stared at the clay.

"What's wrong?"

"It's um..well what do I shape it into?"

"That's the fun part you can shape it into whatever you want"

"Anything?"

"Anything"

"Woah...thats a lot of things" Vanessa said with wide eyes"

"How about you shape what you feel"

"How I feel?"

"Yeah...feel it then shape it"

"Got it...feel it then shape it"

She put her hands on the clay...and squeezed her eyes closed

"Uh what are you doing" I asked curiously

"Finding the feeling" she said with her eyes still tightly shut
