Beginners Hand Building Vase Workshop

Discover how to hand-build your own ceramic flower vase in this engaging workshop. Over three hours, you will be guided through the enjoyable process of creating a unique vessel from clay.

This hands-on session includes demonstrations and personalised support, covering:

- Getting comfortable with clay properties and preparation.
- Using pinching and coiling techniques to build your vase's form.
- Methods for securely joining clay sections and achieving a smooth surface.
- Tips for shaping and refining your unique vase design.

This workshop is perfectly suited for individuals new to ceramics who want to learn the basics. However, those with previous clay experience looking to practise their hand-building skills are also very welcome.All clay, tools, and necessary equipment for the activity are provided. We will start with a practice ball of clay to get a feel for the material before beginning our vases.

 
After the workshop, I will handle the finishing touches for you – applying my shimmer white glaze and firing your creation. 

Two sessions available

Sunday 26th October 10am - 1pm  /  2pm - 5pm
