Hi! I’m Hollie, a ceramicist and designer-maker based in Lancashire, UK. I make colourful, functional home-ware that serves a purpose whilst spreading joy!

I first fell in love with ceramics when I was introduced to small batch production methods such as the traditional techniques of wheel-throwing, mold-making and slip-casting. After graduating in 2019, I set up my studio with the intention of offering pottery workshops alongside creating my pieces.

We did this workshop as part of a team building day at our office and it was such a great choice! The teacher was super friendly and engaging and took the time to help all of us with our pieces. The clay was great quality and we had loads of tools to help us create our designs. I love the little pieces I made and having the option to get them fired is a great touch.

Would absolutely recommend this workshop for any kind of group event! Thanks so much!

Huge thanks to Hollie who ran our class for a team building activity. The quality of clay and tools were fantastic, and the assistance from Hollie was great. She showed us useful techniques and was very encouraging and helpful.

Highly recommend, and would love to do more of her classes!

OBSESSED with what you made! Thank you so much for having me :)

This workshop was so much fun! Hollie's a great teacher and a top laugh. The technique to create the pot was explained clearly and Hollie was always on hand to give you help or encourage your creativity when needed throughout the class.

Teacher's response

Thank you so much for having me Niall, I absolutely loved hosting for you all. Best team ever!

We went to make pinch pots for my wife's birthday and thoroughly enjoyed it - Holly was really supportive and positive as we muddled through, offering tips as we needed them.

We both had a great time and I really recommend the class, we also paid extra ahead of time to have our pots glazed and fired so we're looking forward to them arriving in the coming weeks as an extra bonus present!

Teacher's response

It was such a pleasure to meet you both Adam! You both smashed it, looking forward to sending you the finished pieces back! :)

Holly was an incredible teacher - calm, well paced and very approachable. They were also so supportive of everyone and worked with people to make their vision for the pottery come to life.

The materials are all provided and it was a really nice way to spend an afternoon. Thank you!

Teacher's response

Thank you so much, it was a pleasure to have you both at GRUB! Your pieces will be arriving next week :)

Thank you so much Franciska! It was so lovely to meet you at Locke. Your pieces are going in for their final firing this week :)
