In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to sculpt and shape your own ceramic-style fruit basket using air-dry clay—no kiln required. Think: a sculptural little basket for lemons on the counter, farmers market berries, garlic, or whatever beautiful produce you happen to bring home. We’ll walk through the techniques for shaping, joining, and texturing clay so your basket feels both functional and artful. You’ll learn how to build the basket form, create handles or cut-out details, and finish it with a painted glaze effect for that soft ceramic look. By the end of class, you’ll have your own handmade fruit basket drying at home—a perfect mix of practical and pretty.
