Workshop Details

This beautiful bowl is perfect for sipping hot beverages, or scooping delicious soup out of! Bowl or mug, it truly doesn’t matter what you call it because the important thing is that you made it!

This 2-part workshop allows time to build a beautiful vessel with high fire clay, with no previous experience needed. Once it’s dried and fired out of the kiln, return to the studio to add the beautiful glazes. Use our pattern inspiration sheet or create a unique holiday-inspired pattern of your own when you add the glaze.

Timeline

1. Build & Sculpt: 1 hour of building and an extra 30 minutes for smoothing, if needed. Create using our clay and we will dry and fire the clay in the kiln.

2. Glaze: Return to the studio to add the beautiful glazes. Book at least one week after your build date. We recommend booking 1 hour, depending on the amount of detail :)

Book Glazing

3. Pickup: We will fire it again in the kiln. In approximately 14 days after glazing, it’ll be ready for pick up.

Workshop FAQs

Clay 101

The most important thing to remember when working with clay is to relax and enjoy the process of making hand made art! Clay is like magical mud for creating fantastic pottery and cool ceramics. First, you shape it into whatever you want. Then it has to air dry and go into a super-hot oven called a kiln, where it gets fired at really high temperatures (around 1,200°C!). After it’s been fired once it’s ready for the colourful and clear glazes! Finally. it gets fired again to cure the glazes to the clay. 

“Hygge is about an atmosphere and an experience, rather than about things. It is about being with the people we love. A feeling of home.”
