Merry Christmas ClayMotioners
I have not posted on the blog as much as I wanted during term four as I have not been well during the past few months, as many students will know….. so my New Years Resolution : GOOD HEALTH!!
SO …. Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to all 🙂
AND be sure to check out the children’s school holiday program for your kids, grandkids and friends kids – spread the word!!
AND, or course the term dates and times are up on the website for term one, so visit the CLASSES page for more information.
Meanwhile here are a few pics from term four to inspire your imagination for new creations in term one.

Well that was a whirlwind week for week one of term four – I can’t believe it is almost the end of the year!!

School Holiday Program AND Adults Classes Start this Week!
I’m a bit slow with this weeks school holiday workshop update – that is because my NBN has been down since last Thursday!! I was doing minimal stuff thinking it would be resolved by now – but NO! So I am now chewing up my mobile hotspot coverage (yes I will be demanding compensation) to share the FAB plates & bowls made during the workshop 🙂

Pottery in Ballarat – more finished student works
Time is flying despite the cold Winter we have had in Ballarat – and even colder here at the studio in Dunnstown! The fire, however, has been keeping the studio cozy warm.

Fathers Day School Holiday Workshop – pencil holders and coin dishes
Wednesday mornings school holiday class was a great success with seven happy children making presents for dad. We made pencil holders and coin dishes which were painted with coloured clips. They are now drying before being loaded into the kiln and a clear shiny glaze being applied.
There is another workshop this coming Wednesday 6th July in the afternoon from 2-4pm and again we will be making gifts for dad, grandpa, an uncle or a family friend, whatever dad is special in your life. We will be making a coffee mug and a key/coin dish, so jump on the website, visit the shop and enrol online or call me on 0438382522
Here’s some pics from last Wednesdays class 🙂
Winter ClayMotion Birthday Parties in Ballarat – Cozy & Warm!
As local Ballarat people will know we have had a freezzing week here, including snow, and on the outskirts of Ballarat it has been even colder – but, never fear, the ClayMotion studio is cozy and warm as it was for last Sunday’s birthday party.
Alex turned 8 and his party theme was Paw Patrol, a popular cartoon for children – so he had a Paw Patrol cake, cups, serviette, plates – you name it! Some of the parents hung around for the party fun and they indulged in bickies and dip, chockies, coffee and tea. Very warming for a chilly day!
The children had a great time, as they always do, and showed fabulous creativity with making their treasure boxes and decorating them – one of the decorations being a huge black spider!!!
Hope that spider didn’t shock you too much!! Here’s some cake to calm you down!
But, back to the party! It was great fun with some fab creativity happening! More info on Birthday parties – for both children and ADULTS can be found on the Birthday Parties Page ….. meanwhile here are some pics from the weekend 🙂
