In this workshop held at Lynda Hallinan's exquisite Sweetgum Cottage & Garden, Bex from R Ceramics (@r__ceramics) will begin with a demonstration of how to make a vase using basic pottery hand-building pinch techniques. You’ll then go through the process with her support, creating a vase designed and decorated by you.
Bex will (carefully) take your creation home. She will bisque fire it, glaze it in your choice of white, clear or black, then do a final firing. Your vase will be ready 3-4 weeks later for collection from Bex's home studio in Hunua.
No need to bring anything but yourself on the day – all materials, aprons, and ideas (if you want them) are provided.
- Suitable for beginners & ages 12+
- Includes all materials, clay, tools, glazes, firing & tutoring
- Light refreshments provided
- The workshop starts at 6.30pm but you're welcome to arrive a little earlier and enjoy a tiki tour of the amazing Sweetgum Cottage Garden.
