Drop In Sunday – Pumpkin
Sunday, October 19, we will be making ceramic pumpkins. Use it to decorate your holiday table, or add it as a focal point for a seasonal bouquet.
You will be provided with a slab of clay and a paper template. You will then trace around the stencil on the clay, and then fold the clay up around a paper ball to make the pumpkin shape. Add tendrils and leaves – you can use real leaves to get a beautiful vein imprint from the leaf.
Folding the clay up to make the pumpkin shape is a little bit tricky, so it may not be an appropriate activity for the very young, but I will leave it to you to decide what your child can do or can’t do.
The cost is $15.
Come back in 2 weeks to glaze your pumpkin.
Your pumpkin will be ready for pick up within 3 weeks from glazing (usually a week to two). This is the project for Sunday 10/19. The drop in workshop is offered from 2 – 4 pm. It will probably take you about an hour to make the pumpkin. You can come any time between those hours – just plan on at least a half an hour to make the pumpkin. A different project will be offered every weekend. Check here for future projects. Once glazed and fired the pots will be dishwasher safe, microwaveable and oven proof.
