During this pottery workshop you'll learn how to make two pinch pots and join them together to create a sphere, which we'll then transform into a pumpkin or gourd of your choice. You can add a natural-looking stem and leaves or get creative by making a pattern of holes so a tea light can be placed inside to light up your pumpkin. This workshop is suitable for both beginners and experienced potters.
We'll provide all the necessary materials, tools, and templates for a fun and engaging session.
Please Note: Your beautiful creations cannot be taken home on the day. They will be dried, bisque-fired, glazed in your chosen colour, and glaze-fired. They will be ready for collection from the venue approximately 2-3 weeks after the workshop.
