We have a whole bunch of holiday-ish updates for you guys!
The November community sale at the Nashua YMCA is coming up fast and we would love to have more of you sign up! Check out Jessica's previous post under the studio events tag to follow the steps to sign up. This is an amazing opportunity for members who have little inventory, or don’t want to take the full cost of a craft fair on their own yet.
It’s time to announce our fourth annual Pottery Mill pot swap! Here’s the link to sign up: https://www.elfster.com/gift-exchanges/c02fa016-ccf2-4d92-a161-52ea42ea70a7/?join=yzay. Please sign up before 11/18 and be ready to drop off your gift before the end of the year!
Instead of a shelf decorating contest this year, we will be doing a raffle for members who make an ornament to decorate. The small tree will have in the studio. Please feel free to make an ornament that is unique to you and your style and then we will have some small raffle prizes for anyone who drops one off by 12/9 and enters their name in the drop box. Top prize will be a bag of clay!
As a reminder, we are going to hold a lamp wiring workshop in December so get started on your lamp bodies now! Here’s the wiring kit some of us will be using so we can measure for shrinkage of the hole size at the top: https://a.co/d/1UJgedv
That should be all for now, but we'll keep making posts about everything to remind you all 😁
Anyone have any tips on calculating for clay shrinkage? I’ve watched some videos in the past but never attempted it.
