Claydate: Tableware (Nesting Bowls and Beyond)
This is a variation of Claydate- get more info here.
Come make some beautiful tableware to make your meals a little more special. We’ll be spending a few extra minutes talking about nesting bowls (who doesn’t want to save cabinet space in NYC?) but tableware can be anything – plates, bowls, cups, spoon rests, candle holders, the list goes on. You will learn all the techniques to make all your tablescape dreams come true!
This beginner-friendly workshop will guide you through the fundamentals of handbuilding. You'll have the opportunity to personalize your pieces with colorful ceramic underglazes. After the workshop, we'll take care of the glazing and firing process, ensuring your ceramics are ready to use. Instructed by Aubrey.
