We’ll explore hand-building techniques using slabs and coils, then shape and perforate the form so your freshly picked berries can rinse and drain right in the bowl. Add surface design with texture and underglaze to make it unmistakably yours. Glazing will be done later by Janna, and will be ready to pick up two weeks later. All materials included; $20 materials fee payable to the instructor. No experience necessary.
