Magnet Night - Hand Building Make and Take

Magnet Night — Hand Building Workshop

Spend a cozy evening making a whole set of handmade fridge magnets. In this beginner-friendly hand building class, you'll shape a set of 4–6 mini clay magnets — no wheel, no experience, just your hands and a little guidance. Tiny bowls, little animals, hearts, flowers, letters — make them match or mix it up for a set that's all your own.

As you go, you'll decorate each piece with colored slip — hand-painted clay detail that gives every magnet its own character. Keep them simple and sweet or pile on pattern and texture — no two leave the same.

Here's the part worth knowing: pottery is a slow craft. After class, we'll glaze, fire, and finish your magnets in our kiln — a process that takes a couple of weeks but is exactly what turns soft clay into durable little pieces. We'll text you the moment they're ready to pick up, usually within 2–3 weeks, magnets attached and ready for the fridge.

Everything's included: clay, tools, slip, aprons, and step-by-step instruction. Just bring yourself — and maybe a friend.

Perfect for first-timers, families, date nights, or anyone who wants to slow down and make something with their hands. No experience needed; all skill levels welcome.
