WHAT TO BRING TO THE SESSION:
I have an apron in my studio for you, but I still suggest you bring old clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. Make sure your nails are short, and you can bring something to tie your hair.
Bring creativity and enthusiasm! Please understand that pottery is a very nice and relaxing process. Try not to bring too much on your mind — just let yourself flow with the clay so you don’t get frustrated.
