🤘🏼🖐🏽✌🏾🤙🏿 Let's hand-make a hand-shaped helping hand. 

Join us for a fun, small-group, and beginner-friendly 3-hour workshop where you’ll create a one-of-a-kind, hand-shaped ceramic dish using your very own handprint!

Whether you want a unique jewelry holder for your nightstand, a sentimental gift for a family member, or a beautiful keepsake for a soon-to-be bride, this workshop is the perfect way to create something and let your creativity flow. Bring a friend, or come alone and make a new one—the choice is yours!

Date: Saturday, June 20th

Time: We'll start promptly at 11 AM!

Location: South Austin 78745 (exact location will be sent after ticket purchase)

What to expect: 

We’ve got a high vibe, low-pressure session planned for you. Here is how we'll spend our time together:

  • The First Half (The Sculpting): We’ll dive right into the clay! You’ll trace and cut your handprint from clay, and mold it into a beautiful, functional dish. No prior experience needed—I'll guide you every step of the way.

  • The Intermission (The Half-Time Hang): We’ll take a 20 to 30-minute break to let the clay dry out just enough for painting. We highly encourage you to bring your favorite snacks and drinks to enjoy while we chat and hang out!

  • The Second Half (The Painting): Once our pieces are ready, the paint comes out! You’ll spend the rest of the workshop customizing your dish with personal details to make it truly yours.

Once you put your paintbrush down, your job is done! I will take your masterpieces back to the studio to be professionally glazed and fired in the kiln. Your durable, shiny, food-safe dishes will be ready for pickup within 2–3 weeks.

Spaces are limited, so grab your spot today and get ready to make something beautiful!

🫶 A Note on the Vibe and space: My home studio is a safe, warm, and inclusive space in South Austin 78745 (exact location will be sent after ticket purchase). Absolutely everyone is welcome here. Come as you are, and let’s make some magic.
