GLAZE YOUR TABLEWEAR

CREATE YOUR OWN GLAZE ARTWORK.

Ever wondered how ceramic pieces get those beautiful colors and finishes? In this creative workshop, you’ll dive into the world of glaze – the magical glassy layer that turns a simple object into a personal piece of art. You’ll learn how to decorate ceramics using underglaze, brush-on glazes, and ceramic crayons. The result? A unique handmade object to take home and treasure.


No experience needed – just bring your curiosity and love for color.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

In a relaxed and inspiring setting, you’ll glaze your own ceramic object – such as a cup, small bowl, or plate. You’ll choose your piece and explore different decorating techniques using underglaze, Stroke & Coat brush-on glazes, and Crealine ceramic crayons. Whether you want to paint, draw, or play with patterns – it’s all possible.


Our instructors will guide you step-by-step, helping you understand how glazes work, how colors interact, and how to bring your vision to life. Feel free to experiment and discover what glaze can do for your creativity.

GLAZING: THE MAGIC F COLOR AND FIRE

Glazing is a fascinating process. You apply pigments like you would paint, but the true result only reveals itself in the kiln. From subtle gradients to bold colors, from illustrations to abstract textures – anything is possible.

With the use of underglaze and Stroke & Coat glazes, you can clearly see what you're doing while you work, making it easy to plan your design or improvise freely. You’ll explore what works, what doesn’t – and most importantly, what feels right for you.

GIVE YOUR CERAMICS CARACTER

You don’t need to be an artist to create something beautiful. We’ll provide all the materials, tools, examples and tips – you just bring your enthusiasm. Whether you like soft tones or vibrant contrasts, your creation will be one-of-a-kind.


Come alone, with a friend, or gift yourself a few creative hours. You’ll be surprised by what you can make in one afternoon.

WAT NEEM JE MEE NAAR HUIS?

After the workshop, your piece will stay with us for a little while: we’ll apply a transparent glaze and fire it at a high temperature in the kiln. After about 2 to 3 weeks, you can come pick up your unique creation.
