Pottery: Miao Miao - Play with Clay

Let's get DIRTY!

In this creative pottery workshop, we'll create a lovingly designed cat bowl together . You'll work with real clay and create a unique work of art step by step. The finished cat bowl is perfect as a decoration, a jewelry dish, or a small, handmade gift for cat lovers.
The workshop is designed so that no prior knowledge is necessary . Whether you're working with clay for the first time or already have experience, I'll guide you through the entire process and show you everything at your own pace. The focus is on the joy of creative work and the experience of creating something unique with your own hands.
At the beginning of the workshop, you'll have an hour to knead and model . During this time, you'll learn how clay feels, how to prepare it properly, and how to create a stable base for your cat bowl. Together, we'll shape the bowl's body and create typical feline features such as ears, face, and paws. I'll show you step by step how to bring your design to life and what to pay attention to so that your bowl is both stable and aesthetically pleasing.
In the second part of the workshop, we'll focus on painting your cat bowl . You'll have about an hour for this as well. You can choose colors, add patterns, or give your cat a completely unique look. Whether playful, simple, or colorful – every cat bowl will be a truly one-of-a-kind piece. I'll be happy to help you choose colors and give you tips on how to make your creation look its best.
If you'd like to create a larger piece , that's also possible. In this case, there will be an additional charge of 10–20 CHF , as more materials and time will be required. Just let me know during the workshop, and we can find the right solution for your project together.
Finishing your ceramic piece:
After the workshop, your piece will remain in the studio for approximately two days to allow the clay to dry completely. It will then be fired twice. After the first firing, your eggshell will be glazed to give it a beautiful shine, make it durable, and food-safe. During the second firing, the glaze permanently bonds to the clay. The entire waiting period is at least two weeks.
