In this workshop you can make a beautiful keyring from a piece of clay which contains actual clay from the Wheal Martyn pit. 

We have a selection of cookie cut out shapes and textures that you can use to press designs into your shape or you can make your own shape and even write a personalised message on it if you wish. You will be guided by our pottery instructor on how to make your special key ring. This workshop is super fun and easy and great to do with all the family.

Once your shape is dry, it will be fired in our kiln. A clear glaze will then be applied and it will be fired again ready for you to come back to collect or have it posted to you. No experience necessary.

Equipment & materials: Clay, coloured slips and tools are provided. We recommend that you bring an apron along.
