Make a Fruit Bowl

This is the first time offering this class. It is a variation of the “make a spaghetti bowl” class. Using the same mold and process, we will instead cut the clay creating a bowl with a carved design. Templates will be provided, or you can create your own design. 

The off white bowls are the size and shape of the bowl we will be making. The white bowl with circle cuts pictured is one I made, using the mold you will use. We will be working with speckled clay, that seems to crack less than the white clay I have. It has a more rustic appearance – which goes really well with a simple white or off white glaze, allowing the clay’s speckles to burst through. (I have more bowls in process that will done soon and I will post pictures.)

Join us on January 20 and 27 from 6 – 8 pm to make a fruit bowl that reflects your very own creativity!  This bowl, which is about 9 inches wide, will be oven and dishwasher safe, microwavable and food safe. It is about 2 inches deep making it suitable as a fruit bowl.

During this 2 day workshop you will be led through the steps to make your very own bowl.  The first day, which will take about 2 hours, we will make the bowl, and cover different ways to decorate it. The plate is made from a slab of clay, molded, and then finished on the wheel. Once the plate is made, you will cut and carve the clay.  You can come prepared with your own design, or use templates and various fondant cutters I have. The second scheduled day, we will finish the bowl. Depending on how much is done the first class, the second class could take an hour to 2 hours. Your plate will be ready for you to take home within 3 weeks of you finishing it. 

The workshop will take place January 20 and 27 from 6 – 8 m. Adults only please since we will be using very sharp exacto knives for cutting.
