Clay & Bloom: Flower Vase Workshop
Join Rosie, owner of Ceramics in the Annexe, for a relaxed, hands-on pottery workshop as part of the Clay & Bloom series, hosted at Petal & Stalk's Flower School in Navenby.
In this 2-hour session, the workshop begins with a live demonstration, followed by your chance to shape, detail and decorate your own flower vase using a variety of tools and glazes. This workshop is perfect for beginners—you'll be guided every step of the way. All materials and tools are provided, and light refreshments (tea, coffee and biscuits) are included.
After the workshop, your vase will remain in the studio to dry before being glazed and twice fired, making it strong and durable for everyday use. Your finished vase will be ready for collection approximately 4 weeks after the workshop, or it can be posted to you for an additional cost.
Come along for a cosy and creative experience in a welcoming small-group atmosphere, set within a beautiful workshop space.

How it's made
How it's made
All of our ceramics are handmade in our pottery studio in Lincolnshire, UK. Each piece is created in small batches of around 20 and carefully formed over a two-day period.
Once shaped, the pieces are left to dry slowly for about a week before their first firing in the kiln at 1000°C. This firing removes any remaining moisture from the clay and permanently transforms it into ceramic.
After the first firing, each piece is glazed by hand. Depending on the design, glazes are either brushed on or the piece is dipped to achieve the desired finish. The ceramics are then fired a second time, reaching temperatures between 1220 - 1240°C.
From start to finish, a single piece can take up to four weeks to complete — a slow-made process that allows time and care at every stage.
