Pinch Pots By following these directions, you can create a traditional style of earthenware used
by Eastern Woodland Native Americans. The women used clay found in streams and rivers to fashion pottery for cooking
and eating. Your pot, however, will be used only for decoration, so we suggest you use the self-drying clay available
at most craft stores. Caution: DO NOT use these pots
to hold food or liquids. They are not safe for food use, and they are not water resistant. :-)
Directions:
Fill your pot with dried flowers or beautiful acorns, fall pods, and
seeds.
