Make 3 luminaires similar to the ones shown, but reflecting your own creativity. Working with slabs of clay, and molds, you will form these cone shaped trees. The trees will not have bottoms, so it is best to use a battery operated light, or a votive with a plate underneath. This is a two day works shop. The first day we will make the trees, the second day we will glaze. Two hours is allotted for each class, but it will likely take a little over an hour. This workshop will take place November 13 and 20 from 10 until 12 noon, though, as mentioned, the full time will likely not be needed. All ages welcome, no experience needed.
This three day workshop combines the fun of working with clay, as well as the enjoyment and satisfaction of gardening. The first day we will make the actual pocket container from a slab of stoneware clay. Different shapes and textures will be explored to help you create a planter into which you will plant 3 baby succulents. The second class, the following week, we will prepare the container for glazing and then glaze. Different methods of glazing and the different glazes available will be covered. The third week of class will be spent planting the container you made using small 2 inch succulents. Each class should take about an hour, depending on how much detail you add. (The succulents I have ordered from Mountaincrest Gardens are not hardy). When the pocket garden is finished, take it home and hang in a spot of honor!
The workshop will meet Tuesday July 27, August 3, and 10 from 6 to 8 pm.
Functional beauty that lets your creativity shine. That is what working with clay is all about. Making a mirror frame is one of the easiest ways to learn about clay and there are so many different styles that are easy and will make your friends think you have been working with clay for decades. You can add clay to make a design, carve a design, use stamps, or use different available textures. Your finished mirror frame will be about 10 by 7 inches. The first class will be spent making the frame, the second class will be spent glazing, and the last class will be spent cutting and gluing the glass in and adding a backing, and wire or string for hanging. The glass we will be using is mirror glass from mirrors that have been upcycled glass. The first class will be August 13, 20 and 27. The workshop will meet from 3 – 5 pm on these days. It will be limited to 8 students.

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 Thursday afternoon, August 19 and 26, from 3-5 pm.
