It can be quite intimidating when you’re starting out working with clay, so I’m really thrilled to have designed a class that you can take in the privacy of your own home that will help you build in confidence.

9 LESSONs / 2 HOURs
In this opening lesson, Freya introduces her creative world of hand built pottery, sharing her background, influences, and passion for clay. Learners will discover what makes clay such a powerful and expressive medium and get an overview of the vase they’ll create throughout the course. It’s an inspiring start that sets the tone for a soulful, tactile journey into ceramics.
Freya guides learners through making their first piece - a simple pinch bowl - using only their hands and a ball of clay. This lesson builds confidence with the material, encouraging a relaxed, sensory approach to shaping. It’s a warm-up exercise that introduces foundational clay techniques and the mindful joy of working with your hands.
Before construction begins, Freya helps learners explore the creative process of designing a vase that reflects their personality and vision. From sketching shapes to imagining textures and colours, this lesson inspires intentional making while celebrating the organic evolution of design. Optional templates provide structure for those who want it, while others are encouraged to let intuition lead.
