Description
Make your own ceramic art – or send a workshop in a tin as a gift. No experience is required but if you do have experience of clay, you can bring it to this lovely project.
We love running workshops – there is nothing quite like sharing the feelings and sensations of working with clay with people, whether for the first time or as a refresher, or to develop new skills. We love the variety of what people can create with the same raw material.
No special tools are needed – we can help you find everything you might need around the house or garden.
The workshop in a tin includes;
A slab of raw clay, about 20cm x 15cm..
Instructions, inspiration and ideas for how you might choose to work on the clay to create something unique.
A cloth to keep your surfaces clean while you work on the clay.
Some packaging for keeping the clay flat on its way to you and back to us again.
All materials, firings, a hanging hook, or the offer of a frame at an extra cost.
Postage to you of the workshop in a tin and then the finished piece.
How it works.
You order a tin – timing is important so let us know when ordering if the tin is for a particular date -and we post it to you.
Instructions are emailed to you or your friend, with ideas of what to gather while you wait for your tin to arrive – fun things like feathers or old jewellery.
You, or your recipient, have fun with the clay, making a ceramic artwork for the wall.
You post the clay back to us, reusing the box and packaging that it came to you in.
We smooth the edges and the back of the clay and put it somewhere safe to dry. We then fire it and get in touch with you to choose colours, before glazing it and firing it again.
We send you another image of your finished piece and you can choose a hanging hook or pay an extra £25 for a frame. We then post your work back to you.
