On February 15th, I invite you to come and create a set of wall vases with me. It will be a fun and inspiring morning in which you will learn some basic sculpting and decorating techniques, and explore your creativity. And: the vases will be yours to keep afterward.

All experience levels are welcome ❤️ Find all the details below:

Make your own Ceramic wall vases

In this workshop, you will be making two wall vases. The pieces will have a hanger and tiny holes, so they can carry flowers and applied to the wall. You will choose and create your own designs (f.e. a pup, kitty or a human face) and you will paint them with colored clay slip. I will be there to guide you through the process and provide you with tips and inspiration. After the workshop, I will fire your pieces, and you will receive them by mail.

Setup

The workshop will take place in my cozy ceramics studio in Utrecht and it will have a total duration of about three hours. At 10am, we will start the workshop with an introduction on sculpting the pups and painting them with clay slip. I will also share some techniques on how to add different details and designs to them, so you can give them your own personal touch. 

After this, you will start creating the vases. I love color and will make sure there will be lots of different colors to paint your pieces with :) I will be there to guide you in the process and provide help and assistance whenever needed. Occasionally, you will be served coffee, tea and a snack. 

After the workshop, I will ask you to leave your creations in the studio. I will dry- and fire them, and once they are finished, I will ship them to your home. This will happen in approximately three weeks.

Gold Luster

Many of my sculptures carry gold luster details on them, but due to technical reasons we won't be working with gold luster in the workshop. In case you would like your vases to have gold details on them, I can apply this for you afterward. This will cost an additional 7 euros for each piece. Note that it may take a bit longer before you receive your creations by mail, as they will need one extra firing session.
