Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
If you have the clay: make a roundish ball!. Hollow it out a little!. Take the material from the hole you made and divide it in half!. Take a piece of the halved clay and make some tiny balls!. Poke a hole in them-- they are going to be the eyes!. Wet the back of the eyes and stick onto the head ball!. Now take some clay and make a nose!. Wet the nose piece and stick it between the eyes!. Take some more clay and make two ears!. Wet the ears and stick them on the side of the head!. Now take head and just below the nose scratch in a smile!.

Let it thoroughly dry and let your teacher fire it for you!.

Keep Arting!
