Join this ceramic decoration workshop and transform plain tableware into beautiful, functional art.
Think scrapbooking… but on ceramics!
You'll spend a relaxing couple of hours arranging, layering, and playing with a curated collection of professionally printed ceramic decals. Think of them as permanent, high-quality tattoos for your tableware.
You don't need any pottery skills, drawing experience, or previous artistic training to get involved – this session is completely low-pressure and designed for absolute beginners. Your instructor will provide hands-on help every step of the way, guiding you through the process of applying the illustrations and patterns to create a style that's entirely your own.
During the class, you will:
  • Discover how to work with ceramic decals – Learn the simple, satisfying technique of applying pre-designed illustrations to ceramic surfaces.
  • Create your own design – Browse hundreds of ceramic decals in different themes, then mix, match and arrange them to create a piece that’s uniquely yours.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have created your own mug or side plate. If inspiration strikes, you can also add extra ceramic pieces during the workshop from £8 each.
Personalised decals – Add a custom pet portrait, favourite quote or other personal design from £5. Please get in touch at least 3 weeks before your workshop to arrange.
After kiln firing, the designs become permanently fused to the ceramic surface, transforming them into beautiful pieces designed for everyday use. Whether for your morning coffee, an afternoon cake, or a favourite snack, they’ll bring a little extra joy to your table for years to come.
Workshops are held at either chillchillcats goodies & craftroom in Leeds Corn Exchange or A Touch of Craft Yorkshire in Ossett.
  • At Leeds Corn Exchange, you’ll create in a cosy independent shop surrounded by local artists, makers and unique handmade goods. Collect your finished ceramics from the shop, or have them posted to you for an additional £6.
  • In Ossett, enjoy a bright studio with free parking, tea and coffee (honesty box), and your finished ceramics posted to you after firing.
Both venues offer a relaxed, friendly environment that’s perfect for unwinding, trying something new, and enjoying a creative experience.
Please note:
  • Finished pieces will be kiln-fired after the workshop and ready for collection in around 2 weeks.
  • Participants will be asked to choose between a mug or a side plate before the workshop. Other ceramic options may be available depending on stock.
  • The Ossett venue is on the first floor and accessed via stairs only.

Recent reviews of Ceramic Collage Workshop: Design Your Own Tableware

  • 5/5 from Rosie Blackwell, attended Sep 2026: Kiu is so welcoming and kind, we had the best time at the workshop and it was easy enough to do too!
  • 5/5 from Eleanor, attended Aug 2026: My group and I had a really amazing time at Kiu’s ceramics workshop. She is so caring, fun, supportive and attentive. I would recommend her workshops to all!!! Everyone throughly enjoyed learning the process and creating a beautiful piece of art!
  • 5/5 from Leanne, attended Jul 2026: I really enjoyed the workshop! It was such a relaxing way to spend a couple of hours, and I liked that there wasn’t any pressure to get things perfect because you can easily move the pattern around with water until you’re happy with the design. There were loads of lovely patterns and illustrations to choose from, which was fun but also a bit overwhelming at first. Kiu gave just the right amount of guidance to help me decide on the direction of my bowl without taking over, and I’m really pleased with how it turned out.
  • 5/5 from Shav Peynado, attended Jun 2026: Fun, Relaxing & Perfectly Beginner-Friendly! I had such a great time at the ceramic collage workshop in Leeds! You don’t need to be experienced or even particularly “creative” to enjoy this - it's genuinely accessible and inclusive for everyone, just bring a open mind and curiousity. The process is quick, super intuitive, and honestly, you can’t really make mistakes. It felt just like scrapbooking, but instead of paper and glue, you’re using water and ceramic decals on dinnerware. What I loved most was how therapeutic it was. I spent ages browsing through the huge variety of decals and just enjoying the process of putting everything together at my own pace. A highlight for me was when Kiu kindly illustrated my cat, Poppy - I couldn’t wait to include it on my mug, which made it feel even more personal and special. This is my third workshop with Kiu, and I always enjoy her sessions. She’s knowledgeable, approachable, and creates such a welcoming environment. Definitely looking forward to many more!
  • 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Jun 2026: It’s really easy to make something beautiful because I struggle with perfectionism. It’s nice to have all these pretty little bits that you can just stick on, and there’s lots of room for error too. You can move things around if you’re not happy with them and just mix and match everything. And it’s therapeutic! I really enjoyed it.
  • 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Jun 2026: I’d never heard of ceramic collage before, so I didn’t know what to expect. It was surprisingly easy to do, and I was really pleased with the finished design I created. There were so many beautiful little pictures to choose from that I kept changing my mind! It was such a relaxing workshop, and I can’t wait to get my plate back and start using it.

Hi, I’m Kiu — the artist behind artLaiga Studio.
I run relaxed, beginner-friendly creative workshops across Leeds and West Yorkshire, where enjoying the process is just as important as what you make.
Before founding artLaiga Studio, I spent over 10 years working in art education, helping people discover the joy of making through clear, step-by-step guidance.
To me, workshops are about more than learning a craft. They’re an opportunity to slow down, make personal choices, and create something meaningful with your own hands — no artistic experience needed. My sessions are calm, welcoming, and pressure-free, with plenty of creative freedom and encouragement along the way.
Alongside teaching, I create small-batch ceramic homeware and accessories under artLaiga, combining original illustrations, Word Art, and ceramic collage. I love creating pieces that people can use, enjoy, and live with every day — little companions that bring warmth, humour, and a smile to ordinary moments. Selected works are stocked at ChillChillCats Goodies & Craftroom in Leeds Corn Exchange.
I also offer workshops for private groups, schools, community organisations, hen parties, and corporate events across Leeds and West Yorkshire.
