It’s been another fantastic week for us at Clayways!💚

We’ve been super busy behind the scenes loading and unloading the kiln to make sure all of our wonderful members have their pieces!☕️

The kilns blessed our eyes with some stunning pieces too this week! The first slide features some of Jess’ latest pots! How stunning is that pink!😍🩷

Lots of members’ sessions too this week, lots of loveliness!🫶🏼

Looking forward to another busy week ahead for us!💙💚

Some memories are too special to stay tucked away in a drawer or hidden on a camera roll 🗒️🤍

Our Forever Notes capture those precious moments- a loved one’s handwriting, a favourite photograph, or a child’s drawing…and set them forever into handcrafted clay pieces.

Whether it’s a handwritten note from a grandparent on a trinket dish, or a special photo on a Christmas tree ornament, each piece is a heartfelt piece of art made to be held, cherished, and passed down.

✨ Festive pre-orders are officially open🎄Because every single piece is handcrafted with so much love and care, our Christmas slots are limited.

Give a gift that truly means something this year. Drop us a DM, let’s capture those precious memories together💙🌟

Clayways Away Day!💙💚

We had an amazing time at Valentine Clays today, learning about glazing, getting a factory tour and even getting to try out some of the NEW glazes which Valentine are releasing in collaboration with Milton Bridge 🥹 we also got a closer look at the Studioline Glazes - which we loved 😍 This workshop was also hosted in the wonderful LoveClay studio, based at Valentine Clay!💚

These glazes are designed to be used on low firing clays, specific Valentine Clay’s range of LoStone low firing stoneware clay bodies. We got to glaze a pot and both the clay body and glazes were like a dream to work with!🥹

We also had a fantastic talk from David at Milton Bridge and Bon at Bonnie Whiteman all
about creating the glazes and their experiences in the world of ceramics!

We had so much fun and can’t wait to get our pots into the kiln and see how they turn out!🌟

We absolutely love making these little Forever Notes ❤️

It’s so lovely to receive positive reviews but it’s even better to watch students growing in both ability and confidence and able to throw stunning pots on the wheel!

Our evening throwing courses are full until July (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 6:30 - 8:30) but we have day time sessions available.

The Six week course is just £245 giving you 2 hours every week focused on your skills, your style and you can try different styles to see what works best for you.

Get in touch on WhatsApp 07738 629343 to have a chat and book in. We’d love you to join us too!

Full Review:

"I cannot recommend Tracy at Clayways highly enough. When I first started, I struggled to progress with my wheel throwing and felt I had reached a plateau. I had attended another local pottery studio, but despite my enthusiasm, I wasn't getting the guidance I needed to improve my technique or tackle larger pieces.

Tracy's patient, knowledgeable and encouraging approach has completely transformed my confidence. She has an incredible ability to spot exactly what you need to adjust and explains everything in a way that is easy to understand and put into practice. Thanks to her expert tuition, I am now throwing larger, more accomplished pots that I never thought I would be capable of creating.

Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced potter looking to develop your skills further, Tracy has the expertise to help you improve. Every session is enjoyable, supportive and inspiring, and the studio itself is a wonderful place to learn and create.

Clayways has given me not only new pottery skills but also a hobby that I genuinely love. I look forward to every session and am constantly amazed at what I can now achieve."
