Kitchen Chair Tutorial
Kitchen for UU2014 is almost complete, it just needs something for the counter and handles for the cabinets. I completed the chair, and I thought it would be a good very simple tutorial. When I say simple, I mean it. :D
First things first, the materials are glue (I used hot glue), Q-tips or tooth picks, mat board, and a lump of clay.
Kneed your clay first, and have an amount that's fairly large.

Once you've done that, begin to form your clay into a chair seat and back. This part is a bit hard, just roll it out into a rectangle, fold it into a 90 degree wedge, and work from there.

Go put your chair in the oven. I actually had to do this part over again because I burned the above chair in the oven D:
Onto the legs! Grab three Q-tips and mark how long you want your legs to be with a pencil. If you're not painting over your legs than I highly recommend a pencil or something that can be erased.

Cut these out. When you've got them, you can push them off to the side.
Grab your mat board. You should only have a small bit, because you'll not need much. Mark three dots where you want your legs to go.
Glue your legs on. I used hot glue for this instead of drilling holes or something, but any thing works.

Cut around your legs. You're done with these for now.
When the clay is done cooling, paint it. I painted mine yellow with craft paint.

Flip the chair over and glue the mat board to the bottom. If you want to have these painted then you should have done so already.

If you chose to not paint the legs than you should erase the pencil marks from the legs. :/ My bad for not doing that until they were glued.
And you're done. :)
