Come in and design a butter dish of your choice and creativity! You'll have access to all of our cutters and stamps, including our sea animals, bee and floral, cowgirl and cactus collections, plus all of our signature coral textures and decorative techniques. Whatever style you want to create, we'll guide you every step of the way.
Open sessions are fully guided by us for the duration of the workshop.
You'll learn the same decorating techniques our studio uses to create pottery that makes waves. From rolling out clay to cutting your own decorative pieces, slip trailing, and adding beautiful textures.
