Following the popularity of the ceramic workshop with Jen, we are excited to welcome her back to do another workshop for us, in fact this will be a series of two to add glazing skills to finish the items.
Session 1
Friday 2 October 7pm to 9pm This time we will be making two items from either a small dish with a suggested variety of unusual shapes…. (see photos for exciting inspiration) and/or a shadow caster (a tea light holder which throws shadows of the design on to the wall….Halloween??)
Session 2
Friday 16 October 7pm to 9pm The second workshop is where your bisque fired items will reappear for you to apply glaze to colour and finish them before they are fired for you. Includes refreshments, tuition, materials and firing. You will get your items back approximately 2-3 weeks after the workshop. All materials, tuition and bisque firing are included plus refreshments.
We thank everyone who helped Rudi enjoy Christmas and make lots of new friends.
He received £10.00 in donations which we will match giving us £20.00 to replenish spring bulbs in the the main village notice board for everyone to enjoy.
Pictures of all Rudi’s adventures are available to view in the village hall.
A rare opportunity to learn about the fascinating art of corn dolly making. The very talented Sue Tomkins will give a brief history of corn dollies, and a bit about straw preparation, before guiding us through actually making our own.
With Valentine’s Day ahead we will start with a Compass Plait Heart then have a go at either a Welsh Border Fan or Glory Braid/Diamond Plait. Depending how we get on there may be time for more…
There will, of course, be the usual light refreshments, and time for questions. Book early to get a place on this highly unusual workshop and keep up the interest in this ancient skill.
Spring is here the clocks have changed and it’s getting warmer. Wednesday 16th April is the final coffee morning for the time being. Thanks for your support.
