Handbuild & Decorate Your Own Bubble Glaze Mug
A Playful, Mindful Pottery Experience for All Skill Levels in Westchester
Hand-build your own ceramic mug and decorate it by blowing bubbles of colored underglaze!
We'll start with rolled slabs of white stoneware clay, then we'll cut out our stencils and assemble our mugs using slabs and coils. Add a handle or not - you get to decide. Decorate your mugs using stamps and cut-outs, or paint a design. Then comes the fun part - blow soapy, colorful bubbles of underglaze all over our mugs! The bubbles will stick to the surface of the mug, adding effect and color!
March 5th - 7pm
April 6th - 7pm
The Process:
- Learn how to roll a perfect slab of clay
- Cut out the template with precision
- Learn how to assemble your mugs using the slab building technique
- Assemble your mug by scoring and slipping the clay for secure attachments
- Customize your mugs with stamps and cut-outs
- Blow colorful bubbles of undergalze all over your mugs
- All materials, clay, and tools are included
- This workshop will last 2-2 1/2 hours
Your bubble mugs will dry slowly, then get fired and glazed, ready for pick-up 4-6 weeks later.
A curated selection of drinks and snacks will be provided for a complete night out!
Our studio is small, and space is limited to a maximum of 12 guests (unless otherwise specified).
Parking is free and plentiful. Bathrooms are clean and across the hall. Please come dressed and ready to get your hands and maybe even your clothes a little dirty.
Please arrive on time so that we can start the project with enough time for completion. If guests arrive more than 30 minutes after the start time, they may be unable to finish their project. Ariella will do her best to accommodate for lateness and skill level, repairing work when she can to ensure the highest likelihood of survival through the kiln process.

PLEASE NOTE: There are NO guarantees in pottery!
While working in clay is calming, pottery comes with many unknowns. Pottery is unpredictable and sometimes unforgiving. While Ariella will do her best to walk you through each step of the process, sometimes cracks and issues present themselves along the way. Either in the soft and malleable stage, or as the piece dries and hardens, and even into the bisqueware stage, clay moves and shifts. Even the best potters cannot predict the outcome, so please keep this in mind! Working in clay is meditative and gratifying; however, it is also humbling, as there are many factors out of our control. This is the magic of ceramics- learning to let go and allowing for the process to guide you, and accepting that we are not always in control. This is the beauty of clay. So enjoy the workshop, class, or private event, and remember that the experience IS the best part of pottery! The final product is just the icing on the cake:).
