Discover how to hand-build your own set of two ceramic tea-light holders in this engaging workshop. Over three hours, I’ll guide you through the enjoyable process of creating a unique vessel from clay.
In this hands-on activity, I will demonstrate essential techniques and provide support as you learn:
  • Getting comfortable with clay properties and preparation
  • Using slab building and carving techniques to build your holders' form
  • Methods for securely joining clay sections and achieving a smooth surface
  • Tips for carving and cutting into clay and refining your unique designs
This workshop is perfectly suited for individuals new to ceramics who want to learn the basics. However, those with previous clay experience looking to practise their hand-building skills are also very welcome.
All clay, tools, and necessary equipment for the activity are provided. We will start with a practice ball of clay to get a feel for the material before beginning our holders.
After the workshop, I will handle the finishing touches for you – applying my shimmer white glaze and firing your creation. This ticket includes a set of two holders being fired per person. Any extra pieces can be fired at an additional cost of £5 per piece.
Your tea-light holders will be ready to collect in 6-8 weeks. They can also be posted at an additional cost of £5 per piece for UK delivery.

Hi! I'm Emma and I'm the potter behind Studio Yōki, ceramic studio based in Glasgow. Specialising in small batch planters and vases, alongside a selection of homewares, I use traditional hand building techniques such as pinching and coiling to create characterful pieces of pottery.
I have a passion for teaching others my skills and run a selection of fun and therapeutic hand building workshops. So if you enjoy getting your hands dirty, making a flower vase or floral bowl, come and join me in one of my hand building workshops. (You might even win potter of the workshop!)
