A mug is the perfect first project for those new to clay, a date night, or a custom gift for a loved one. Build the basic structure of a functional soup mug and handle and decorate it with a striking skull design of your own creation! This variation of our “Mugs with Personality” workshop has a THIRD hour to add even MORE character to your piece! Drinking out of something you made yourself never gets old! Bring your best ideas and your patient instructor, Luna, will be by your side every step of the way to help! In this class you will learn how to: ~ Pinch a small bowl from clay into the shape of a skull ~ Add a handle to a pinch pot ~ How to sculpt the features of a skull ~ Decorate using stamps, textures and glazes ~ Finish surfaces to minimize unwanted harsh edges ~ Optimize the functionality of your piece Our clay discovery classes have been curated to teach the basics of hand building. You will be amazed with what you can make with just your hands and some clay! This is a great introduction to pottery without making a multi-week commitment. All discovery classes are adaptable for beginners or those with more advanced skills and experience. After this workshop your piece will be bisque fired and then you can return to glaze the piece during one of our "Glazing 101" workshops which is included in the cost of your class! It is a one-hour intro to glazing that will teach you how to glaze the piece you have made. Alternatively, you may choose a single color that we will glaze for you. After glazing the piece will be glaze fired, and you can expect your piece to be ready for pickup 2-3 weeks after you have glazed. We will always contact you to pick up. REGISTRATION CLOSES ONLINE AT 9PM THE EVENING BEFORE THE SCHEDULED WORKSHOP. TO REGISTER ON THE DAY-OF THE WORKSHOP, PLEASE CALL US AT 778-757-3274.
