From the work tables
I’d been staring at the glaze test shelf for months without a clue what any of it meant. After an evening with Nia I can at least guess what’s going to come out of the kiln, which feels like progress.
Went to a mug night with three friends for a birthday. Mine leans to the left and the handle is far too small, but I use it every morning anyway.
I’d never touched a pottery wheel before. My first bowl collapsed twice, and Bea just laughed, pulled it back to a lump and got me going again. The third one survived and it’s on my windowsill now.

Beginners welcome
Try the wheel
Two hours at the wheel with Bea, learning how to centre the clay and pull up your first small pot. It’ll probably wobble, and that’s all part of it.
