After the lesson, you'll get to select your best four creations to be fired and glazed, ensuring you take home your most treasured pieces. ☕ Tea & Cake: We know the importance of refueling, so we'll take a refreshing tea and cake break to recharge your energy and create a friendly atmosphere where you can chat. 🎨 Mug Painting: Once we've recharged, we'll return to the studio to decorate and handle your very own personalized mug. This is your chance to infuse your unique style into your artwork, making it truly one-of-a-kind. 🧡 Embrace Your Project: We're here to support your artistic aspirations.
