Clay & Macrame

About

During this virtual craft crossover extravaganza, you'll expand your skills in clay and textiles to create both components of your new favorite household statement piece—the planter and the artful hanging mechanism. Spend the first evening with a ceramic teaching artist creating 2 – 3 planters of varying sizes using coil and pinching methods. Learn tips for caring for houseplants and creating optimal environments for them as you form, design, and decorate your pots with colorful engobes. Bring your finished work to NCC for a bisque firing, and pick up your pots along with a textile kit (enough for two plant hangers) before the macrame session on November 19. Resume the workshop with a textile artist for two hours of beginner macrame to make custom hangers
for your planters. You'll learn basic techniques, including several different knots and construction methods, and build the skills to keep on knotting!
