Create something gorgeous for the most spoilt member of the household in this relaxed, beginner-friendly clay workshop at Handmade Margate.
In this session, you’ll hand-build a personalised ceramic pet bowl from soft white earthenware clay — perfect for a cat, dog, or any beloved little beast who deserves something better than a boring bowl from the pet shop.
We’ll guide you step-by-step as you shape your bowl using simple slab-building and hand-building techniques, helping you create a sturdy, usable form with plenty of handmade charm.
Once your bowl is made, you’ll decorate it with underglaze colours and surface details to make it completely your own.
Add your pet’s name, painted patterns, stars, stripes, paw prints, florals, seaside motifs, — cute and whimsical or simple and chic.
This is a lovely workshop for complete beginners and returning clay lovers alike. No pottery experience needed, just bring your pet obsession and a rough idea of the name you’d like on the side.
After the workshop, we’ll dry, fire, glaze and re-fire your bowl for you, ready to collect a few weeks later once fully finished.
A handmade bowl for a very important creature.
Duration: Approx. 2 hours
Price: £48 pp
Clay: White earthenware clay
Level: Beginner-friendly
You’ll make: 1 personalised ceramic pet bowl
Includes: Tuition, clay, tools, underglaze colours, glazing and firing
Collection: Ready to collect in approx. 4–6 weeks
Please come with the name you’d like to add to your bowl. Shorter names work best, but we’ll help you make it fit.
Your pet does not need to attend, but photos for design inspiration are very welcome.
As each bowl is made by hand, lovely little wobbles, quirks and personality are part of the charm. We’ll help you keep the inside smooth and easy to clean, while the outside can be as decorative as you like.
