Service Description
Here's how it works... Our instructors will get you started and guide you through the process to make sure you have a great time and get a good start. You’ll work with two .75 pound balls of clay; you’ll follow along with the instructor with the first, learn on your own with the second and make something that you’ll love. Don't worry its not as intimidating as it sounds, your instructor will be there every step of the way to see you have fun and correct your form when they can to ensure a successful piece. When done, you can choose ONE bowl from the two. Once it's done kiln baking we'll notify for your SECOND studio trip, that's right the fun doesn't stop at the wheel! Once you're called, you can come into custom paint your solidified pottery bowl during the week at no charge. Once you're done your custom piece it'll then go into the kiln for a second time to make your paints bright, shiny, functional and permanent. Aprons are provided, but it’s likely you’ll still get some clay on the clothes, no problem it washes out. People with long nails will find the process a good deal harder so we'll teach you the best way we know how, with a sponge. If you have the choice, believe me postpone your nail appointment until after, your little ball of clay will thank you. Duration 1.15 hours. Unfortunately the $75 deposit is non-refundable. minimum 2 guests = $150 Additional potters are $75 Includes a 2nd weekday painting trip + kiln baking *Tax is not included with the pricing*
