Glazing
🎨 Time to add a little razzle dazzle.
Glazing (painting) isn’t included in your clay-building workshop—think of it as the sequel. Book your glaze time separately when you’re ready to add that perfect pop of colour.
In order to finish your clay piece with glazing, you'll need to book glazing time separately.
Glazing time can be booked 8 days after you've completed the first portion of your clay workshop, the clay hand-building—unless we call you with some not so great news about cracking, mild explosions or kiln errors we need to deal with (all a natural part of a potter's life) in which cases we will give you a new timeline.
You can glaze up to a maximum of 2 pieces during your glazing booking.
What is glazing?
Glazing means adding glazes (paint) to your clay piece.
Glaze is a glassy coating added to clay for decoration as well as to make it non-porous and safe to use with food and drinks.
Here's how it works:
You sculpt with wet clay → we let it dry → we fire it once in our kiln (very hot oven for clay) → you come back to paint (underglaze!) → we fire it again → we add clear glaze → we fire it one more time → then you pick up your finished masterpiece!
🛍 Pickup is 8 days after glazing, during studio hours on Wed-Fri 1-7pm or Sat-Sun between 1–5 PM.
