Pottery Workshop: Buttons or Stitch Markers or Jewellery

Interested in trying a simple clay project? Are you sewing or knitting or crocheting or anything that might need a button? Do you want to create your own jewellery? Then this is a workshop for you!

You will learn how to make dozens of beautiful buttons - all the same or all different or sets of buttons! Come with friends, or come alone. Maximum 6 people. There will be a brief demo to get you started, then with guidance, you will learn how to work with clay slabs to create your own one-of-a-kind buttons. You can also make stitch markers, or simple jewellery pendants. These make a lovely Christmas gift for a special person on your list who loves to knit/sew/crochet!

NOTE: THIS IS A TWO DAY WORKSHOP. On DAY ONE, you will be making the buttons. They will then needs to slowly dry and then get bisque fired. You will return on DAY TWO to glaze your creations and you will be leaving the buttons with me once again. The second firing will happen within a few weeks of the second day and can then be picked up.

All supplies are included in the workshop, but please bring a sense of humour! Please don't wear your best clothes as you may get some clay on them. Cost: $90 per person, + HST, for both sessions
