FEATURED BUILD
Make an Egg Carton
Friday, June 13 from 6-9PM $45
Saturday, August 16 from 1-4PM $45
Join us for an evening of pottery as we craft a beautiful ceramic egg carton that holds a dozen eggs. Eggs are so expensive, so let’s make an egg carton to hold our treasures!
You’ll learn how to roll out clay slabs, cut and smooth the pieces, and bring them together to form your egg carton. To finish, you’ll glaze your piece in complementary colors, making it uniquely yours. The best part? Your egg carton will be food-safe, fridge-safe, and dishwasher-friendly!
Show up solo or bring a friend – all Pottering workshops are beginner-friendly.
