In this video i'm making a simple ceramic cup from a 1 piece plaster mold. I started with filling the plastic cup with clay,to prevent it from flooting to the top. I also fill up the small edge of the cup. After that i applyd some release grease to the table. When the plaster is poured, you can take out the plastic cup in about an hour. Make sure to dry the plaster mold for a couple of days (or hours) ,depending on the moisture and the way of drying. After that you can pour in liquid clay. I left the clay in for about 20 minutes , which created a good thickness of the cup. When the clay cup is dried, it can be fired in an ceramic kiln. You can see the end-result in the last shot.
You can leave it like this for decoration, or you can add ceramic glaze on it, if you want to use it as a drinking cup.
