Make your own mug at this hand-building pottery class in Liverpool.



2 hours Class size 1 to 5 guests       £45 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Join this pottery class in Liverpool and get hands-on with clay as you create your very own handmade pottery mug. During this relaxed two-hour workshop, you'll learn how to craft a functional piece using the slab hand building technique – it's a great place to start, even if you've never touched clay before.
Your teacher will guide you through the process, ensuring you feel supported every step of the way. You can expect a friendly vibe where fun comes first, allowing you to switch off and focus on the joy of making.
During the session, you will:
  • Learn hands-on hand building pottery techniques
  • Discover how to attach a handle and add surface decoration to your design
  • Use all the tools and materials provided to bring your vision to life
This low-pressure environment is perfect for first-timers looking to try a new hobby and rekindle their creativity. You'll finish the class with a sense of accomplishment and a one-of-a-kind, functional keepsake that's ready to brighten up your morning routine.
After the workshop, your piece will be left to dry, then it’ll go in for its first firing, then glazed with your choice of glaze and finally fired again before you’ll be able to collect! (This usually takes around 6 weeks, we will email you when they’re ready to pick up)

I'm Sophie and I'm the potter behind Bored Now Ceramics.
I fell in love with clay during a beginner class in 2022, and now I spend most of my time at the wheel making colourful, smiley pots.
My workshops are relaxed, fun and catered to beginners. I'll guide you through the basics of wheel throwing, share the little tips I've learnt over the years and help you create pieces you'll be genuinely proud of.
I love teaching, I love seeing people surprise themselves with what they can make and I can't wait to welcome you to the studio :)
