Make a Fairy House – Monday 1/21/2019 – 2 – 5 pm

$50
Doesn’t every fairy deserve a roof over their head? Now you can provide a safe and beautiful home for your fairies.
You will make a ceramic home using slabs of clay and different textures to create that one of a kind home. You will be led through basic construction, and helped to design any embellishments you want to add, within the time allowed. The basic construction is a stone, cobblestone, or brick textured house, with a flower (datura type) roof. It takes a full 3 hours to make one of these houses – the first hour is spent building the house and roof, the second hour is adding any embellishments – mushrooms, butterflies, bugs, flowers, door, windowboxes…etc.), and the final hour is painting or glazing the the house.
After you make your house and it has dried, I fire it in a kiln to 1900 degrees fahrenheit. I then add a clear satin glaze over the outside of your house, and refire to 2200 degrees fahrenheit. Your finished house will be available for pick up within 2 weeks.
This workshop is limited to 4 people. If you would like to schedule a private workshop for just you and your friends and family, that is easily accomplished. Just use the “Contact” tab on the main menu.
Theoretically, these houses can be left out all winter, but it is not advisable.
