Lids

These are gorgeous canisters!  by BrennaDeeCeramicsraku potteryThis is porcelain, but could work beautifully in polymer clay.  Vase or finial by Natalie BlakeAMACO.com - American Art Clay Company - The source for creative people!
When your considering how to make lids for a piece I think one of the strongest things to consider is how it will aesthetically enhance your work while remaining cohesive. It can either be the main focus to your work or just a simple functional element. My experience with lidded vessels has taught me that how you want your audience to handle the lid may change how you decide you want it to function. Your design choices will determine if it's just an object that will sit on your shelf as artwork, or if it becomes one of your favorite jars to use in the kitchen.
