Magical Blue and Green clay tile class
Clay class at Fig Tree Studio
Join me to create beautiful clay tiles using my hand drawn templates or your own personal designs, which will then be glazed after the class using a turquoise blue or deep green glaze.
Creating tiles is a fun activity which looks super and is achievable even if this is your first time using clay. As well as the template designs you can imprint with leaves and fabrics and add text using letter printing blocks. Suitable for complete beginners or experienced.
All materials are provided so all you need to do is just turn up ready to have some fun and creativity. Warming herbal teas, and nibbles will be available.
Booking is essential: contact clpates@hotmail.com or 021 143 7705
$65 per person:
Includes all materials, glaze, double kiln firing and nibbles
Saturday 7 November
6:30pm- 9:00pm
Completed pieces are ready to collect up to 4 weeks after class to allow time for firings and glazing
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
