Really lovely class! Cosy studio, Elsham and Piper were both warm, welcoming and super helpful with the whole process. As it is such a small class, it feels as though you can ask as many questions as you need and have lots of help if you're unsure. There are some lovely touches - particularly the beautiful little cards we used for sketching ideas and then as a record of the pieces we made. Cannot recommend the class enough and we will definitely be back for another session soon

I can't think of a better pottery class. We got drinks, full equipment, 1:1 coaching from an expert, polaroid pictures of our final creations, lovely flowers and happy birthday balloons which isn't typical but went over and beyond.

I can’t recommend Sip & Sculpt enough, and Elska, the workshop instructor, deserves all the credit for making it feel like magic. She struck exactly the right balance between giving freedom and offering expert guidance. I was able to create exactly what I wanted, with zero pressure. Whenever I needed a tip or a gentle nudge, she was right there. That being said, she never imposed ideas on me, opting to let me explore, experiment, and make it my own. The décor is something to write home about. Warm and stylish reflecting the playful, creative vibe the workshop promises. It felt relaxing and yet inspiring. What really sealed the experience for me was the care put into the materials. The custom sketch pad and the Polaroid photo with my piece (while waiting for it to be fired) made me feel like I was walking away with more than just a future ceramic object; I was leaving with a memory, a keepsake. Then there was the wine: sublime. I approached that part with slight trepidation, thinking to myself, “Will it be too pricey for what it is?”. To my surprise, it was worth every penny. The selections complemented the creative atmosphere so beautifully. By the end of the session I felt elated. I was concerned 3 hours would be too long, but it went by in a flash! Had a few laughs and lovely conversations (helped by the wine, naturally), and left feeling like I've actually made something.
