You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.

Making pottery at home is easy with this craft kit! Enjoy the relaxing experience that playing with clay can give you and make a beautiful lantern to hold your candles.

Your pottery teacher will teach you how to use your pottery kit to create your lantern. You will be using air dry clay, so no kiln or oven is needed, making this DIY pottery project great for beginners. Using some basic techniques, you can create a beautiful candle holder for your home.

Customise your lantern by choosing your clay colour. You can pick between grey and terracotta clay. Terracotta is good if you want a natural look, whereas grey is best if you want to paint it once it's dry. Grey can also be left natural. The pottery kit will include enough clay to make at least two lanterns.

Pottery at home is a great way to destress and relax while also making some amazing DIY home decor. Working with clay is a great creative outlet and can help you focus. So if you need productive things to do at home, try this live online class.

This virtual class is also great for virtual team building activities. Get your best friends or work colleagues together for some fun and to care for your mental wellbeing.

There is a minimum booking requirement of 5 people. If this number is not reached, you may be contacted to reschedule to a date with more participants.
