Customize Your Creation
Once your masterpiece is sculpted, you can choose to:
Color it with underglaze
Leave it unglazed in its natural state
Have us glaze it in a single color for you
A Time-Honored Practice
Handbuilding with clay is an ancient craft that our ancestors used for therapeutic purposes. Embrace the opportunity to relieve stress and enjoy a tranquil candlelit evening.
