Keeping pottery 'fun'damental!
Hello and welcome! This bit is all about me!
If you're familiar with my previous incarnation as Saz's Ceramics and Crafts you'll possibly be aware of the fact that I had a 'quaint', 'quirky', 'characterful' (customers' words) pottery painting and clay studio at the Red House Glass Cone from 2007-25. My aim was to create a welcoming environment for creativity for people of all ages and abilities. And I was so proud to have a studio at the Red House Glass Cone, which is a very special place indeed.
Last year, however, was time for a change; my partner and I moved house to Bridgnorth in Shropshire and we had a studio built in our garden. I was ready for a change in direction, a chance to focus on creating my own ceramics whilst continuing to offer workshops for small groups. And I love it!
So, if you've never heard of me (no matter) and you've just found me because you're interested in having a go at pottery, welcome, you're in the right place. My name is Sarah Cannings; I love teaching and sharing good practice and am as keen to learn and pass on skills as I was when I started my pottery journey all those years ago.
If you fancy learning how to throw on the Potter's Wheel, hand build or paint an item of bisque ware, please visit my Workshops page and follow the links to the schedule or call me to discuss your requirements.
Welcome to my happy place!
Snail painting workshop
The only snail you'll be proud to have in your garden!
Paint your own sensational snail using our fantastic range of crystal glazes.
Our snails are slip cast in house and are suitable for outdoor* or indoor living! N.B. Our ceramic snails like to hibernate in winter months as they're not fans of frost!
Great for a quirky gift experience or just treat yourself to a crafty workshop; the results speak for themselves!
Please contact Saz to let her know what size of snail you'd like; small (£38), medium (£48.50) or large (£59). (Our booking schedule takes a small deposit of £5, which will be deducted from the balance of payment on the day of the workshop).
Workshop price includes a large choice of crystal glazes, full tuition, snails and firing fee. Your snail will be ready for collection in approximately 2 weeks' time.
Hot drinks are included and you may want to have a wander around our unique site afterwards, to visit our other talented artisans, museum and Cone gift shop!
Join us on for our set workshop, or if you want an exclusive party for yourself and 4 or more of your friends, please contact Saz to arrange a date and time.
