Have you ever wondered how to make those earthy clay bowls that dominate Pinterest? Find out by creating your very own at this clay and sip class! It’s nature meets creativity in this unique clay workshop.
In this class, you'll use materials sourced from the natural world – such as twigs, leaves and branches to handcraft your own decorative clay bowls. Get wild with designs and explore how these natural materials work together to form distinctive textures and one-of-a-kind artworks.
Bring your friends along, pour a glass of wine, and let your teacher guide you through the process of clay crafting. You’ll create up to four different bowls based on various techniques and designs.
No need for follow-up workshops – all our clay bowls are air-dried rather than fired, so there’s no additional wait time!
Once your clay creations are dry, why not spruce them up with a touch of paint? We’ll show you how to paint them once they’re dry, and you’re welcome to purchase a paint set to take home with you.
After the workshop, you’ll take home all your handmade clay bowls, ready for decorating or gifting. Display them with pride, knowing you’ve crafted them with the utmost attention.
Our studio has all the equipment and materials needed for this creative art experience. Perfect for birthday party ideas or hens nights with a twist, this Melbourne workshop will leave you feeling inspired and proud of the new skills you've learned too!
