What to Bring
We're all about having fun and getting hands-on, so come prepared to dive into the world of clay! Wear something comfortable that you won’t mind getting a little clay on, and an apron is always a good idea if you are able to bring your own fantastic, if not - we have them at the studio. Short nails make working with clay easier, and if you’ve got long hair, tying it back will keep it out of your way.
