Bowl Pottery
June 2023During your workshop, Hayley Farrelly, from Bramley Pottery, will take you through the process of making this Water Lily Serving Bowl.
Once your bowl has dried she will fire it in her kiln and then glaze in a celadon colour of your choice.
The bowl can be enjoyed every day; the glaze is food safe so can be used for serving food.
The pottery journey takes time, so expect to wait up to a month after the workshop to receive your pieces as this will allow time for them to dry, to be bisque fired, glazed and re-fired.
Once finished, your pottery can be collected from her studio in Ballinger, or they can be sent in the post.
Please bring an apron to the workshop and Hayley will provide all the tools you need to make your pottery pieces.
This course accommodates 6 people.
