Which workshop to pick

  • Leave with your tile: choose acrylic or a workshop that varnishes on the spot.
  • A more durable, traditional object: the artist's studio with firing, if you stay long enough or accept shipping.
  • An evening out: the workshop with a cocktail or port.
  • Children under 10 are not suited to some workshops: check the minimum age.

FAQ

Do you need to know how to draw? No, workshops are made for beginners; you follow a model or decorate freely.

Can you take the tile on a plane? Yes if it is dry and well wrapped; ask the workshop for packaging.
