Description
In this session you will hand build two porcelain tealight holders. Embossing textures and patterns will add surface detail and accentuate the translucent qualities of this pure white clay, creating beautifully delicate finished pieces. There are plenty of textures to choose from in the studio, but feel free to bring your own to press in, you may have a favourite flower or a particular textured fabric you would like to use. 6 spaces available.

Maker
I have been a professional potter for over twenty years. After graduating from Bath Spa University College with a degree in Ceramics and 3D Design, I went on to complete a Masters degree in Ceramics at the Royal College of Art in London. I teach and make my own work for exhibitions and craft fairs in my purposely built garden studio. The studio is well equipped and has plenty of natural light. It's also a communal space as it is often busy with the students who come to my classes, which makes it a lovely space to work in.
