EmailCome and make your very own hand-crafted pottery plant pot with Pottymouth Workshop!
“Plants are like people: they’re all different and a little bit strange.” — John Kehoe.
Every plant deserves a beautiful pot to call home and flourish in, with Pottymouth's ceramic workshop you can make that happen!
Expert potters Naomi Stokes and Meredith Mason will teach you how to make your own unique planter from scratch and you can customise the size to suit your favourite plant from home.
What to expect:
- A pottery demonstration from your hosts
- Learn how to slab build your planter using slip and scoring
- Decorate your work using coloured slips and impressions from leaves or other clippings
- Time and support to really unleash your creativity and personalise your work
You'll receive step-by-step guidance throughout to build the perfect (or perfectly imperfect) plant pot. This session is suitable for beginners so no previous clay experience is needed!
Enjoy a discounted first drink from Bristol's award-winning brewery with the freshest pints being brewed just meters from your table. What will you choose? Kaleidoscope Pale Ale or maybe Lucky Saint?
Once completed, your work will be left with your hosts to be fired and glazed in a shiny top coat ready to adorn your plants and your home. Final products will be ready to be collected 2-4 weeks later.
