Angel and animal candle holder clay class
Clay class at Fig Tree Studio. Join me to make magical angel and animal clay candle holders*. We will use my hand drawn templates, white clay, slab building techniques and imprinting with fabrics.
Add colour using coloured slips, or choose clear, blue or green glaze, which will be added once they are bisque fired.
As well as candles, they can hold crystals, small jewelry or other keepsakes.
I provide all materials, double kiln firings and glaze, plus teas and nibbles. Creations are ready to collect 4 weeks after class.
Booking is essential: clpates@hotmail.com or 021 143 7705
$65 per person
Sunday 8 November
2:00pm- 4:30pm
*Please note that the angel candle holder is unglazed in the photo, but all creations will be glazed after the class
