Hand-Building Pottery Workshop: Make Your Own Mug & Coaster
We’ll gather in a calm and welcoming space to shape something both beautiful and practical: your very own ceramic mug and matching coaster. No wheel required—just your hands, imagination, and a love for making.
With 23 years of experience as a master ceramist, Gokce (owner of Mindful Atelier) will gently guide you through the process, showing you simple hand-building techniques like slab-building and pinching. You’ll also have the chance to personalise your mug with textures, patterns, or details that reflect your style.
This beginner-friendly workshop is designed to spark creativity and joy—no previous experience needed. It’s all about enjoying the process, not striving for perfection.

What to Expect
• A relaxed, friendly atmosphere—perfect whether you come alone or with a friend.
• Step-by-step tuition at a comfortable pace, with plenty of time to explore your ideas.
• All tools, clay, and aprons provided—just bring your curiosity.
• Tea, biscuits, and conversation to keep inspiration flowing.
• Underglaze colouring for your piece before firing, so you’ll leave your personal mark on your work.
After the workshop, your mug and coaster will be glazed, fired, and ready to collect in 2–3 weeks—a keepsake to enjoy with your daily tea or coffee, or a thoughtful handmade gift.
