“I spent a joyous morning slip casting in porcelain using marbling with Bryony. She was an excellent teacher and facilities were very good. No experience of ceramics is necessary. Bryony is a lovely person. I look forward to receiving my glazed pots.”
“Fabulous time. Very relaxing morning. Look forward to receiving our finished pots. “
“I absolutely loved this class and will definitely do another! Perfect day!”
