Using a mold and a slab of clay\, you will make a tray that reflects your own creativity. This is a two day event. The first day we will make the tray\, and decorate with stamps to provide texture\, or you can use one of the many rolling pins I have with beautiful unique textures. You can add handles…or not. The second day\, the following week\, you will glaze your tray. The first day will likely take the full two hours as contemplating the many ways to decorate takes time. The second week\, when you will glaze your tray\, will take around an hour. The tray is dishwasher safe\, microwavable\, and ovenproof\, if protected from thermal shock. The tray is about 12 x 8 by about 1 inch deep. \n \nThe class will take place March 4 and 11 from 6 – 8  pm. The class will be limited to 8 people. \nPlease review my studio rules before committing to this class. \nTo reserve your seat – Click here – March Tray URL:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/event/make-a-tray-march/ LOCATION:Old School Clay and Ceramics\, 145 Main St\, Groton\, Ma\, 01450 CATEGORIES:Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://oldschoolclayandceramics.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/tray.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Old School Clay and Ceramics":MAILTO:whistlewood1@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20220305T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20220305T160000 DTSTAMP:20260426T132704 CREATED:20211228T160257Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211228T161243Z UID:1166-1646488800-1646496000@oldschoolclayandceramics.com SUMMARY:Make a Spaghetti Bowl - March DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 5 and 12 from 2 – 4 pm to make the plate shown\, or one very similar\, that reflects your very own creativity!  This plate\, which is about 9 inches wide\, and is oven and dishwasher safe\, microwavable and food safe.
