Mums and Bubs Session with the Gordon Playgroup.

This morning I travelled out to Millbrook, only a ten minute drive from the ClayMotion studio, to workshop a mums and bubs session with Mums from the Gordon Playgroup at the Millbrook Community Hall.

The community hall was once a primary school established in 1877, I guess during the prosperous gold rush era. The grounds also boasted a time capsule, marked by a stone and plaque, due to be opened in 2035 (I think, off memory). I wish I had taken a photo!

Mums made a plate which they decorated with coloured slip and decorative stamps…. plus baby handprints or footprints – a great and treasured lasting memento! There was even a grandmother participating who created a plate with her grandchildren’s prints.

Everyone had a great time with the group deciding they would have future sessions where we would make different clay mementos.

Mums and bubs sessions can be conducted from my studio or where your mothers group meets on any day of the week that doesn’t clash with my studio classes – simply contact me to discuss your needs 🙂

And finally, here are some photos from the session 🙂

January 2017 School Holiday Program – Pottery in Ballarat

Hello everyone – I hope everyone had a great Christmas & New Year!

Now that things are settling back down to routine (are they?) I thought is timely to post a reminder about the January School Holiday program – we are making snake pencil holders and monster post. Enrol in one session or both to keep the kids creatively occupied. Visit the SCHOOL HOLIDAY PROGRAM page for all the info and enrolment details 🙂

And just to keep you inspired check out these cuties from term four kids classes and some of the great stuff they created 🙂

Christmas Day!! Have a Good One and a Great New Year :-)

Have a great Christmas & New Year ClayMotioners, and see you in 2017 🙂

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!!

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 🙂

And, remember adults classes start this week, and there are a few vacancies available – so visit the SHOP and enrol 🙂

School Holiday Program – Pottery in Ballarat.

Last Wednesdays school holiday workshop went off with a bang with lots of colourful Christmas decorations being made. The decorations were painted with coloured slips (slip is liquid clay) and when fired the colours will be bright and shiny.

This Wednesdays workshop is also Christmas themed and we will be making bowls decorated with Christmassy designs. These bowls will be fired to stoneware temperature so can be used in the oven, microwave and dishwasher, so will make a great addition to the Christmas table. To enrol go to the SHOP and click on the School Holiday category.
