Porcelain Decoration Workshop with Amy Cooper
December 3 @ 9:45 am – 12:15 pm
What You’ll Do
Come and spend a gentle and mindful morning in beautiful surroundings, exploring the magic of porcelain. Those new to clay and old hands are equally welcome.
Using soft porcelain slabs, textured rollers and cutters, you will make a collection of unique, translucent porcelain decorations. They’re designed to hang in your windows or on your tree, and make perfect little gifts for friends – or why not craft a collection on a theme and make a mobile?
With Amy’s support and guidance you’ll spend the morning creating your decorations. Your pieces will then be carefully taken back to Amy’s studio to dry before being high fired in the kiln to bring out their translucency.
Your fired decorations will be ready to collect from the Cornish Craft Barn approximately two weeks later – in plenty of time for Christmas. All you’ll need to do is string them up! Alternatively, they can be posted to you for a small fee.
