Dates: 

Saturday, October 24, 10-4 PM

Sunday, October 25, 10-1 PM

Instructor:  Diana Fayt

 

In this workshop, Diana will guide you step-by-step through the process of creating a unique, one of a kind, ornate candle holder from start to finish. You will learn how to hand roll coils that are shaped, cut, and assembled to build the candelabra frame. From there, Diana will show you how to add simple and stamped baubles and decorative details that give each piece its own character. 

 

All levels are welcome, this is a great class to improve your handbuilding skills.

 

The studio will provide enough clay for one project and nichrome wire.

 

Option to fire one finished piece at the studio, there is an oversized fee of $5 for any item over 8 inches. Limited to 10 inches max.

 

PLEASE BRING:

Candlestick- Choose a standard size that you’d like your candelabra to hold.

Rubber Rib (Mud Tools Red Rib is Diana's favorite).

Fettling knife or Exacto knife

Small ½” soft bristle paint brush 

Scoring tool- (If you don’t have one your exacto/fettling knife will work too).
