Itinerary
We will get our aprons on and I will give a brief explanation of the process .You will be using terracotta clay to make a shallow bowl form from a rolled out slab which will be cut out , and decorated with coloured glazes and hand modeled parts then pressed into a bowl shape .We will be colouring the clay at the leather hard stage using underglaze colours which are food safe for the bees , you can make the central parts to your own design or use the same flower shapes as I use , I will show you various ideas but you can add anything you like to customise and make it as personal to you as you like for yourself or a gift . I'll put the kettle on when everyone has started , tea and coffee provided in the cost . Once your bee bowls are dry , which takes 2 to 3 weeks I will bisc fire them then glaze and refire ready for you to collect , if postage is required I will need to take £5 on the day along with your address and I will post these out to you .
