THE PLANT POT with Jess Ellis Ceramics | Sunday 28 June 2026

£65.00

SUNDAY 28 JUNE 2026 | 1pm - 3.30pm

Spend time working with clay as you make your own ceramic plant pot and saucer.

Guided by Jess, you will learn the basics of hand-building, using a simple coil building technique to create a plant pot and saucer using white stoneware clay. A variety of tools will be provided, along with a demonstration of decoration techniques, like carving, and sculpting botanically inspired forms such as flowers and ruffles, to give you the skills and inspiration to create your own design.

After the class, your creations will be bisque fired in the kiln at Jess’s Leicestershire studio, then dipped in a soft white glaze before being fired for a second time. Your pots will be ready to collect within 4-5 weeks of the workshop date.

About Jess Ellis Ceramics

Whilst training as an architect, Jess took up ceramics as a hobby and quickly fell in love with the craft and the hands on process of working with clay. After a few years of lessons, she set up her own little home studio in Leicestershire, where she continues to make and develop her work, alongside her studio assistants, Barley and Clover, the miniature dachshunds. 

Jess’s work primarily focusses on vessels for flowers and plants, with soft feminine forms and botanically inspired details. Each piece is made by hand, usually thrown on the wheel, then shaped, trimmed and glazed to create its final form.
