From Earth to Everyday:

6 Week Mindful Making

Hand-building Course

A calm, unhurried 6-week handbuilding course for beginners, designed to help you slow down, learn foundational techniques, and create beautiful, functional pottery for everyday life.

A slower pace by design — time to learn, practise, and enjoy the process without rushing.

Mindful, calming studio atmosphere — gentle guidance, steady progress, and space to breathe.

Handbuilding only — perfect if you’re drawn to working directly with clay (no wheel).

Supportive teaching — clear demos, step-by-step help, and encouragement at every stage.

Make pieces for real life — functional forms that bring a little handmade beauty into daily routines.

Course details:

  • 6 weeks (1 session per week)

  • The Clay Collective Pottery Studio, Market Harborough

  • All materials, equipment & tools included

  • Small group for plenty of individual guidance

Finishing your work: Choose your best pieces to be fired. These will be bisque fired and ready for glazing in week 5 or 6.

Our next courses are starting on Wednesday 29th April 2026

£210 per person all inclusive
