Coffee lovers rejoice! These mug making classes in Perth will add a personalised touch to your coffee ritual and elevate your mornings.

Did we mention making your own coffee cup is loads of fun? It’s also a relaxing, beginner-friendly introduction to the world of pottery. Whether you’re looking for a new creative outlet, a unique date idea or just a cute way to upgrade your coffee routine, mug making is the kind of wholesome hobby that ticks all the boxes.

Besides, there’s something special about sipping your morning brew from a mug you shaped with your own hands. Maybe it’s the quiet pride of knowing you made that or the small, everyday ritual of starting your day with something that feels personal and meaningful. And once you’ve had a taste of pottery, who knows? You might get hooked! You could end up replacing your cupboard with handmade treasures, crafting mugs as gifts or simply enjoying the mindful process of working with clay.

Ready to dive in?  Below are six of our favourite Perth workshops where you can get hands-on with clay and walk away with a custom mug (or a whole set!)

Make a mug in Fremantle

This mindful pottery class in Fremantle is a fun and relaxed way to get started with ceramics. Using hand building techniques, you’ll create your mug under the guidance of an experienced ceramicist and have a chance to add your own flair with handles and patterns. When you feel happy with your mug, the team at Happy Hub Collective will glaze it in a beautiful satin white finish before firing it in the kiln. With tea and coffee provided, all set within a gorgeous space for connecting with like-minded people, this pottery workshop is about finding moments of calm. Whether you're a solo crafter or coming with friends, this workshop is a beautiful way to spend a few hours immersed in creativity.

Handbuild your own coffee cup

Want to learn traditional pottery techniques without any pressure? This laid-back hand building class will walk you through making your own ceramic mug from start to finish. Using the coil or pinch pot method, you’ll create a cup that’s uniquely yours and perfectly imperfect in the best way.

This workshop is all about creativity and connection—with clay, with yourself and maybe even with the people you bring along. You’ll make your own coffee cup from scratch, decorate it however you like and feel the joy of creating something you’ll actually use every day.

Craft a cheeky boobie mug in Mindarie

Looking for a workshop that’s playful and empowering? This nf!boobie mug class in Mindarie is a fun and body-positive spin on traditional pottery. You'll learn to hand-build your mug and sculpt a pair of boobs onto your design. It’s tasteful, fun and completely customisable.

Perfect for birthdays, hens parties or a quirky girls’ night out, this class is guaranteed to bring laughs and creativity. And once your masterpiece is glazed and fired, you’ll have the ultimate one-of-a-kind mug to brighten your coffee (or tea) break.

Enjoy matcha and mug making

If you’re after a more serene experience, this matcha and mug making workshop blends creativity with calm. You’ll begin the class with a soothing cup of matcha, before moving into a mindful handbuilding pottery session where you’ll shape and personalise your very own mug.

This class is a perfect choice for anyone seeking a mindful, meditative craft session. Whether you’re a tea drinker or a coffee fan, you’ll enjoy slowing down and connecting with the process. Take a moment for yourself, create with intention and find a little peace in the mess of clay.

Try ceramic mug making in Applecross

This hands-on mug making class in Applecross is ideal for those who love a wonky or rustic pottery aesthetic. With no prior experience needed, you’ll be guided step-by-step through shaping, decorating and finishing your mug using simple handbuilding methods.

You’ll have full creative freedom when it comes to size, shape and design, with plenty of materials and tools on hand to make your mug truly one-of-a-kind. Whether you want to create a quirky, artistic piece or a practical everyday cup, you’ll come away with something special and plenty of clay-smeared joy along the way.

Create a set of mugs in Fremantle

Why stop at one mug? In this Fremantle workshop, you’ll get to make not one but two (maybe three!) mugs. It’s perfect if you’re aiming to build out your handmade kitchenware or want to create a matching gift set for someone you love.

You’ll explore handbuilding techniques like pinching, coiling and slab building as you craft your mugs from scratch. With guidance from a talented instructor, you can experiment with different styles and decorations, and choose how to make your set cohesive or delightfully mismatched. There’s plenty of room for creativity, and by the end, you’ll have a beautiful collection of mugs ready to fire, glaze and treasure.

This is a great option if you’ve already tried a mug making class and want to build on your skills. Or maybe you just love the idea of having matching cups for coffee catch-ups with friends. Either way, it’s a satisfying and social way to make something truly special.

From one-off statement pieces to full ceramic mug sets, these pottery classes in Perth offer the perfect opportunity to make your own coffee cup and explore the world of handmade ceramics. Whether you’re a coffee connoisseur or a tea devotee, there’s something incredibly satisfying about drinking from a mug made by you. So grab your apron, roll up your sleeves and get ready to muddy your hands in the best way possible.
