What you'll do

Join us for a fascinating soap making class in Bristol, where you will learn the basics of slab building pottery and create your very own unique soap dish. Don't worry if you've never tried pottery before, this workshop is perfect for beginners!

In this class, you will be introduced to the art of clay stamps and textured patterns and coloured slips. Explore your creativity as you press unique designs onto the surface of the clay, giving your soap dish a personalised touch. Our knowledgeable instructor will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that you feel confident and comfortable throughout the class.

Using the slab building technique, you will learn how to cut and assemble your soap dish from the clay. This hands-on experience will teach you the essential skills needed to create functional and aesthetically pleasing pottery pieces.

At the end of the workshop, your soap dish will be raw glazed, dried and fired. This firing process will transform your piece into a sturdy and durable soap dish that is both practical and decorative. Imagine how lovely it will be to proudly display your handmade soap dish in your bathroom or kitchen!

Starting out as a painter, she took one ceramics class at university and was hooked! Clay has been a focus material in her work since.

Join her for a relaxed ceramics class in her studio and make something special for your home or garden. She will walk you through your make step by step with demonstrations, but also leave plenty of room for your own creative spin on a design.......and tea and biscuits!
