We love making with clay ...
We all know being creative and making things with your hands is especially good for your soul.

What people say about Lea's workshops ...
"Lea facilitated the workshop with great skill, organisation and expertise. While there was an outline of what Lea wanted to cover, she also was able to meet different requests from participants.
"Lea’s Wild Clay workshop is highly recommended for clayworkers who are curious and seeking to connect with place through exploring unpredictable and unique local clays. A basic understanding of clay materials and composition is recommended however not required.
The workshop was fascinating and came with many helpful tips, a crash course into understanding our local geology and basics of locating, testing and augmenting these clays" Bel
The Leggy Workshop with Lea was a perfect balance of fun, creativity, friendly people and delicious food. I was surprised at how easy it was to make a pot that looks great and that I love. Lea provided the perfect guidance to help it have every chance of success! " Celia
"What a lovely experience! Some of us were beginners and some more experienced. Lea encouraged us all and gave pointers and assistance as needed to guide each of us to making our unique pots. Success was assured with such a calm, quietly spoken and knowledgeable mentor at our sides." Denise
