Kia ora this term we have been making diyas. A diya is made from clay ghee or oil, After you shape it let it dry and then paint it. The first diya I made cracked and broke while I was painting it, I then had to get more clay to make a new one. The paint dryed quite fast on our diyas which was good because then we can add more layers and designs. The clay takes a long time to dry maybe 1-2 days you can tell it is dry when it turns white. Making these diyas were fun apart from watching people paint theres while you are waiting for yours to dry.
