Make a Covered Jar – March

Description

Looking for some creative fun this winter? Join us to make a covered jar. The jar would be good to hold your coffee, or tea, nuts, dog or cat treats – or whatever purpose you might use a covered jar. Once finished it will be dishwasher safe, microwavable or oven proof – if protected from thermal shock.

Using a prepared slab of clay, you will be led through the steps to make a jar similar to the one pictured, that reflects your own individuality. You can choose from the many rolling pins that I have to add texture, or stamps, or texture plates. Add you own clay applique to reflect your creativity.

This workshop is good for 5th grade or older, though I will leave it up to you to decide if your child can do the project. 

Come back the following week to glaze your canister and take advantage of the hundreds of possibilities of glazes. 

This workshop will take place on Wednesday March 20 and 27 from 11 am to 1 pm. The first workshop in which you will make the jar and lid, will likely take the full 2 hours. The next week, in which you will glaze the jar, will take an hour.

Please familiarize yourself with my studio rules.
