Create The Parts To Make Your Own Talisman Wall Hanging or wind chime.
Your design can be a symbol special to you, cut from a template I have available or each piece hand shaped. You can then roll and cut, pinch and shape (I have cutters and stencils!!) your designs from a lovely cream clay. You can paint and carve your design into clay and decorate, drawing free hand or using stencils, with under glaze and tissue transfer.
I will then carefully dry your piece before its first firing and will clear glaze and fire your piece. It will be ready for collection from the studio in 2-3 weeks. You can then thread your pieces together to create your Talisman Wall Hanging.
Studio Address - Unit 11, 7-9 Grant St Cleveland

"I have been to two workshops with Carys, and the vibe is always wonderful, conversation flows easily, and the creative process flows. I loved both my wind chimes and cauldron and plan on doing more workshops with Carys She is a beautiful creative who has a big heart.
