Family Easter Clay Workshop – Sculpt a Spring Lamb
The Course
Take part in this Family Easter clay workshop and enjoy being creative by sculpting your very own Easter lamb from clay! This fun relaxing workshop is suitable for all the family.
You will make a beautiful clay lamb using the pinch pot technique and the tutor will demonstrate the process in step-by-step stages. You will also be shown decorative ideas for adding its woolly coat so that each sheep will be truly unique. Alternatively, if you prefer to make a flat hanging lamb you can add its woolly coat to a clay shape, templates will be provided. When you have finished creating your piece, you will add colour using brush on glazes to bring it to life.
Your finished lamb will be carefully kiln fired by the tutor and can be collected from the Weald and Downland once ready.
