Studio Rules & what to bring
- PLEASE DON’T COME TOO EARLY. No more than 5 mins before a session starts please.
- PLEASE DRIVE ALL THE WAY AROUND THE TURNING CIRCLE & PARK ON OUR DRIVEWAY OR ON THE GRASS IN BACK YARD. Please don’t drive straight in and stop midway, other cars can’t fit behind you if you stop short and then their car blocks the entry. If there is space in front of the garage you can park there, but if two cars are there already, don’t stop behind them, please continue around the turning circle and park on the driveway in front of our house. If you need to leave early, please park out on the street and walk down so we don’t have to shuffle cars around.
- Please remember to bring your own APRON & TOWEL. With a few changes to the timetable and more sessions now available every week, wheel time sessions mostly come straight after beginner sessions so there WONT be any aprons or towels available for Wheel Time or Studio Time sessions anymore. Aprons & Towels are reserved for beginner throwing classes only.
- Please bring a LIDDED CONTAINER if you would like to reclaim your own clay.
- At the end of each session please CLEAN your wheel & tools & put the tool and water buckets back in place on the table in front of your wheel, the way they are when you start (not on the shelf).
- Please make sure to PUT YOUR CLAY AWAY or take it home.
- At the end of your session you need to COVER YOUR OWN POTS and put them away or take them home with you in your own box.
- If you have trouble covering your pots, you need to put them in a Styrofoam container or bring a big box with newspaper for lining or cushioning if you’re taking home with you.
- Please DON’T use the round bats to store your pots on, these are for throwing large pots only. Large pots can stay on the round bats but only if absolutely essential and only if you really can’t move them, otherwise they need to be transferred into your box or onto the timber rectangle boards so they fit on the shelf. If you cant find space on the shelf you will need to take your pots home with you and bring back next session.
- BRING A BOX to take any completed pieces or work in progress home with you.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST! If you would like to discuss anything with me or have a suggestion of what you would like to see happen here, or any ideas, or if you’re not happy about something – Please let me know – I want to hear your feedback.
Thanks so much for your support and co-operation for for making our small potting community so wonderful!
Everyone is creating such great work & I can’t wait to see what you make next!
