💫Magical Mushrooms💫

This is beginning to be another popular workshop at The P Pod Thoresby Park 🍄🍄‍🟫

Here’s another selection of fantastically, magical mushrooms made over the last few months.

These can be made to be ornament’s, staked into the ground, into pots or add holes and have them as hanging decorations.

They are suitable to be put outside.

The mushroom caps are separate so you can change your mushrooms around, swapping their stems/stipe.

You can leave them rustic looking by just adding black underglaze to show off all the detail or choose a coloured glaze for the caps and white can be used on the stem/stipe.
Or if you are undecided, why not do a mixture.

For a small extra charge, you can paint them with underglazes and then have a clear glaze applied over the top.

So many choices 😊

💫Porcelain Vase💫

Here’s a couple more beautiful Porcelain vases made at The P Pod Thoresby Park

The purity of the porcelain really contrasts with the black underglaze, which in turn, highlights all the detail in the veins of the foliage/leaves and lace that has been used to imprint with.

These vases are vitrified so will hold water or look equally amazing with your mini ceramic flowers you may have made at a previous workshop displayed in them. 😬😊💐

💫Tortoise workshop💫

Here are a lovely family of tortoises made at The P Pod Thoresby Park 🐢

This is not a workshop I normally advertise but run on request.

You make a 2 part tortoise that doubles up as 2 dishes when opened up.

It’s high fired so has the option of going outside too.

Different textures can be added to the body parts and shell.

These all have a Teal glaze used inside but there are a wide range of colours to choose from.

💫FULLY BOOKED💫
I have 1 workshop on Wednesday 30th September at 1pm with 3 spaces if anyone would like to have a go.

💫Flower Workshop💫

Here is another selection of beautiful ceramic flowers made at The P Pod Thoresby Park.

These were all created on the “Wall flower” workshop.
You can choose to make a table top version which could hold a tea light or for a small extra charge, have your flower mounted onto a garden rod as shown here with the sunflowers and poppy style versions.

These look stunning, especially in winter months, brightening up your garden or flower pots when there isn’t much colour around.

Please email on [email protected] if you would like more information, to book a workshop or buy gift vouchers.
