Bird house - Limited edition


2.5 hours (will only be offered one time this season)

90 US dollars
Main Street

Service Description

Create a charming summer accessory for your garden and invite beautiful birds to visit with something handmade and one-of-a-kind. In this workshop, you’ll build your own clay bird house using traditional handbuilding techniques like slab construction and coiling. We’ll build a hollow form using coils to shape the main structure, then refine it by smoothing, scoring, and joining pieces securely for strength and design. The class will also cover decorative sculpting techniques, allowing you to personalize your bird house with details like leaves, flowers, or whimsical features. This is a great opportunity to explore form and creativity while making something functional and decorative. After the workshop, our instructors will carefully glaze and fire your piece. Finished bird houses will be ready for pickup in 3–4 weeks. What to bring: Please bring a hand towel, wear clothes you don’t mind getting messy, and come with your creative ideas!
