You will be guided through the session step-by step, so first time potters are always encouraged. During the fun, relaxing workshop you will have chance to have a play with some clay and learn to create your own, unique plant pot characters - complete with a plant ‘hairstyle’ and expressions to finish the look.
Giggles guaranteed, your Plant Pot Pals are then yours to keep!
