Make a Spoon Rest (September)

There is so much that is good about learning to make pottery! To take a lump of clay and transform it into something beautiful – that is also functional, is so incredibly satisfying. A spoon rest is one of those things that is functional, but also has so much versatility in terms of design. (Also, they make great presents!)  There is no end to how creative you can get with your design. 

Working from a template and mold, you will make three spoon rests that reflect your own own style! One spoon rest will be similar to the one shown using a magnolia leaf (or bring your own leaf from home), another will be the more traditional spoon  rest, the third allows you to tap into your own creativity and create your own design.

The first day of this two day workshop will be spent making the actual spoon rests. Depending on how much detail you include, or how much you branch out on your own design, it will take a little over an hour. The second class will also take around an hour for glazing. 

The class is limited to 8 people, and will take place on Monday evening, 7 – 9 pm, September 20 and 27.  For examples of other spoonrests folks across the internet have made: click here
