Budding Potters!
While Bry and I were travelling, we got the chance to do something we had both always wanted to try – make clay pots using a potters wheel. It was great fun and we both got covered in clay despite the t-shirts we were given to cover our clothes with.
After careful instructions from Roy, the potter, we got to have three goes at making pots on the wheel by ourselves. We then had to choose our favourite which Roy fired and glazed ready for our collection a couple of weeks later. I don’t know if other potters offer this kind of service, but if you’re ever near York with an hour or so to spare, making pots at the Stamford Bridge Pottery would be a great way to spend the time!
