Course Dates
Dates are very flexible; please get in touch for the next available date. We can run them midweek and at weekends. Note we typically have a 2 month lead time when booking your workshop date.
What can I make?
We are not prescriptive in what you can make. So long as it fits in the kiln and can be made within the timeframe. In a 1 day workshop we have a little more time to be a touch more ambitious with our designs.
You may wish to create a microwave kiln jewellery set in the morning and a tea light or light catcher in the afternoon.
If you have a specific idea in mind let us know and we will advise if we can make it in the time allotted.
- Choose from 2 of the following to make on your workshop (this is not an exhaustive list);
- 2 x 10cm square coasters
- 2 x small light catchers (approx 10cm x 5cm)
- 1 curved tea light catcher
- 1 waved tea light catcher
- 1 small dish / bowl (approx 15cm x 15cm)
- Christmas decorations
- Jewellery set (e.g. pendant and earrings)
