Others... perhaps not so much.&nbsp; Just remember that&nbsp;<i>letting</i> yourself make a mess of it is a <b><i>big</i></b>&nbsp;part of the creative process. It's a bit like therapy... just way less expensive.</font></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span style="font-size: large">By the end of your session</span><span style="font-size: large">&nbsp;you'll</span><font size="4">&nbsp;be able to choose not one, but your<b><i> two</i></b> favourite pieces<b>&nbsp;</b>(eg. bowls, vases, mugs, plates) for us to dry and fire for you. Now how's&nbsp;<b><i>that</i></b>&nbsp;for value?</font></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span style="font-size: large">After (usually) two weeks, we'll</span><font size="4">&nbsp;reach out to let you know that your pieces are ready for you to come back in to paint.&nbsp;&nbsp;</font><span style="font-size: large">No appointment is required for this step; just drop in any time </span><font size="4">during regular studio hours.</font></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span style="font-size: large">With dozens of colours and specialty glazes to choose from, you'll have <i>lots</i> to inspire you on your return visit.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: large">About a week later, your one-of-a-kind kiln-fired creations will be ready to pick up.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)"><span style="font-size: large">Then, all that's left to do is&nbsp;show them off to friends, family, and random strangers on the street!
