Handbuilt Trinket Dish Workshop (2 Weeks)

Handbuilt Trinket Dish Workshop

Designed for all skill levels, this 2-week trinket dish class will guide you step by step through the process of hand-building! Week one covers constructing the trinket dish using techniques like slab rolling, coils, and adding texture – with the option to attach hand-built decorative additions. Week two covers painting with underglaze and techniques like watercolor underglaze and sgraffito. By the end of the session, you’ll have created a one-of-a-kind trinket dish – perfect for holding jewelry, keys, or tiny treasures. Pieces will be fired and ready for pick up approximately 4 weeks after the second session.
