Important details
Your piece will be glazed and fired at Sally's studio. Cost included in your ticket. A huge amount of care is exercised when finishing off your precious hand-made items. Please note that clay is unpredictable and on rare occasions, items break in the kiln. This is all a natural part of the fun of perfecting your craft.
All mugs will be dishwasher and microwave safe.
Works will be available within ~5-6 weeks of the class date from the Stackwood store. You will be contacted when they are ready to pick up.
