From a clay slab to the table...

Clay kitchenware is all the rage on social media, but it has also been a long-lived popular art form for so much longer!

Vicki has been a professional potter for over 40 years and is excited to share her expertise!

There is no need for a potter's wheel for this course; styrofoam makes for a cost-effective material to create simple molds for soft clay slabs. Charming clay plates, bowls, and cups are easy-to-make with Vicki's hand-building pottery tips and tricks. You'll also learn how to use block printing linoleum to impress designs on your clay pieces.
