End of Summer Clayful Update

Hey there!

I hope you enjoyed your Summer and managed to stay cool in the hot weather of the past couple of weeks, believe it or not it was hot even up here in Scotland ;)

This time is when I get to review and plan my Autumn/Winter to-do lists and schedules. Many makers and artists will know this feeling really well, but we start thinking and making work for Christmas in at the end of Summer or sometimes even earlier, so my mind is already in the cold, dark and cosy mood of Winter, thinking about making items that bring light and joy to us in those months.

Enough about weather and seasons!

Let's talk about CLAYFULNESS WORKSHOPS!

I am super excited to tell you that the Clayfulness Workshop in May went really well and we had so much fun. Here is a wee review from one of the participants:

"It was so relaxing to spend an evening playing with clay, I really loved feeling the material in my hands and Julija had such a calming presence. The mindful vibe encouraged my creativity and I'm super chuffed with the pots I made!" - Anja

"Julija guided this workshop, allowing us to ground ourselves and to feel with the clay as material, giving us space in a way that it felt natural and familiar; where we could chat, drink something, and enjoy delicious food, while making beautiful ceramics to take with us after being in fired in the kiln." - Gabriel

Following the fun of the first workshop I am really happy to be announcing new dates for the upcoming workshops! You have many dates to choose from through October all the way to March as well as a couple different themes and making techniques.

All of the dates are bookable on my website where you can also find more information about workshops, FOLLOW THIS LINK.

In all of the workshops we will be using my own collected materials for the local landscapes and remote Scottish places. Making every piece unique in many different ways.

If you are purchasing a workshop as a gift for your loved one, do get in touch and I will send you a lovely little gift certificate to share with them :)

I am offering a £15 discount for students and self-employed artists and makers when you book your workshop! Get in touch with me via email [email protected] and I will send you the discount code.

and then there is the ONLINE SHOP!

This year I was only able to make one small collection in the spring, but since then I have been busy creating and testing some new wild materials that are becoming beautiful earthy glazes - perfect for the seasons that are coming. 

A new Autumn collection will be launched on 3rd October at 7pm.

In the meantime my online shop is open in case you wish to place an order from the last available pieces from previous collections, THROUGH THIS LINK.

That is it for now, but stay tuned for the upcoming updates on the Autumn collection, you will be the first one to know :)
 
Thank you for being a part of my journey and I wish you a beautiful transition into Autumn :)

With love,
