I’ve loved learning to play with clay this year. Different teachers = different styles and techniques so don’t give up just because it doesn’t work out the first time. It’s a very addictive calming experience even when you’re frustrated by the wobbling wheel throwing - it makes you want to keep trying. I hope I’m able to continue learning. Try hand-building and wheel throwing too.

Cones is a lovely place to learn - different teachers means different styles, so don’t give up if it doesn’t quite work for you the first time. Like finding the perfect cake recipe (it takes trial & error and practice). Wheel throwing (cantering) has been really difficult but working with clay is a calming, therapeutic experience. I’ll continue going back to learn more :)

Lovely venue. Great to see how the business has grown. Joined a couple of school holidays programs to learn more clay techniques. Great to learn from different ppl because they have different styles and ways of teaching. Thoroughly enjoyed and will continue to attend as I can.
Great for kids and families too, because it allows you to create to your skill, preference and age.

Loads of fun playing with clay for the first time then hoped to take the family. That didn’t work but I really enjoy clay and have tried other variations and want to keep learning.
Have gone back a few times now to use his kiln.

This is a very delayed review.
Was really relaxing and fun experience - now I go back often just to use his kiln and look forward to learning more :)

Was a fun class and we learnt plenty. Really enjoyed the class and still enough wearing the rings.

Nice little class to do, it is for a small succulent so don’t expect a large plant in the mail. Great way to start though.

It was sometimes hard to follow but the tips on mixing etc was good. My butterflies were rather average and having a second screen or preprinted butterflies would have helped because I struggled to draw the butterfly I needed to paint over. Had fun though and would be great with a group or friends.

Lovely teacher and class. Easy to follow and she records it so you can watch it back later if you miss something.

Participated in this, my second class with Pineapple Jam, this time as a couple. We enjoyed our time and the drinks. Look forward to enjoying more from them.

Lovely teacher, great little skill especially for kids clothing. Wish I’d had this for all those knees on my sons pants.
