Spoon Rest on the Wheel 12+

Create your own handmade ceramic spoon rest on the pottery wheel in a calm, guided studio experience.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of wheel throwing while shaping a functional, beautifully minimal spoon rest from clay. The form is beginner-friendly, making it an ideal introduction to the pottery wheel while still allowing room for personal expression and detail.

After your piece is kiln-fired, you’ll return for a second session to glaze and complete it with your own curated color choices.

The result is a refined, food-safe ceramic piece — designed to bring both beauty and function into your everyday kitchen.
