How cute are these gorgeous coasters?!

This is such a great date idea or a brilliant housewarming present! If you like getting creative, you could paint some personalised coasters for friends or family.

Otherwise, a gift voucher would be a great present for the creative couple in your life to come and make their own. A truly unique present idea with Christmas just around the corner...

How lovely to see multiple generations having a go at our Potter's Wheel Experience. It really is such great fun for everyone!

We love this farmyard-themed bowl made by a young potter on our Potter's Wheel Experience!

It's amazing to see how the different glazes react and really bring a pot to life. We especially love the way that the background glaze has pooled and created a lovely effect in the middle of the bowl.

Sometimes, you really just need an excuse to get your friends together for a good laugh!

These guys had such a fun time in the studio, and a throwing experience is a great way to get stuck in, make memories and get fantastic action shots of each other!

All of our throwing experiences can have an hour added on to them to decorate and paint the pot that you have made, and this can be a great time to catch up and decompress.

To make a real day out of it, we can recommend some fantastic local cafes and restaurants for your group!

For those of you who love painting, sometimes the best experience to go for is Pottery Painting.

Over the summer months, we've had some INCREDIBLE pottery painting pieces, starting off with this breathtaking Octopus plate! We love the magical colour combinations and the watercolour style of painting, giving the Octopus a really ethereal feel!

After a busy (but super fun!) weekend at the Created Festival, it's nice to relax with some of our calmer experiences in the studio.

Creative Clay is the perfect experience if you're looking to unwind and work at a slower pace.

These textured slab bowls are one of our most popular projects. It's wonderful to take your time to experiment and choose your favourite textures, then work gently with the slabs, figuring out how dry the slabs need to be to bend nicely in the mould.

If you'd like some creative relaxation, check out our experiences on our website.

Join us tomorrow at The BIG Sheep Family Attraction for the Created Festival!

Created is a celebration of arts and crafts from the South West, and we'll be there Saturday and Sunday offering throwing tasters! You'll get to make a pot on the wheel with one of the team, then we'll glaze it in a colour of your choice, and you can either pick it up from the studio or we'll get it posted to you.

Places tend to book up pretty quickly, so get there early to avoid disappointment!

We'll see you there!

Now that we're well and truly heading into Autumn, it's nice to have a look back at the fabulous summer holidays!

This group had a fabulous time doing our Potter's Wheel Experience and it was great to see the creativity and ideas from a range of ages! All the pots turned out brilliantly - we hope you love them!
