About the Workshop
Honour your mum at Monte Lupo Studio! This is a full day class where you will be designing, hand building and underglazing (painting) your own ceramic wall hearts all for Mothers Day. You will also be served morning tea between the two sections of the class.
Location:
Monte Lupo Studio
269 Padstow Road, Eight Mile Plains
(Located behind the Monte Lupo Café)
The café will be open during the workshop for light meals, snacks, and coffee.
Saturday, 8th May, 2027 9-2pm
You will be provided with two pre-made Love hearts (one large and one small) to transform into your own unique wall heart sculptures. Using clay slabs, you will create and attach petals, leaves, and decorative elements to build your designs.
During this section, you will learn essential ceramic hand-building techniques, including slipping and scoring, to securely attach clay pieces to your sculptures.
You will then take a break and be served morning tea from our amazing Monte Lupo Cafe.
In the second section of the day, you will be guided through the process of decorating and under-glazing your wall hearts in preparation for firing.
Following the workshop, your pieces will be professionally fired by the Monte Lupo Studio team. Finished works are generally available for collection approximately one week after firing.
Please note: While a range of underglaze colours will be available, we do not stock every colour. If you require a specific underglaze that is not provided, you are welcome to purchase and bring your own from Pottery Supplies at your own expense.
Workshop Guidelines
By booking this workshop, you agree to the following terms and conditions:
-
Bookings and Payment
All workshop places must be booked and paid for in full through the Monte Lupo Online Shop prior to the workshop commencement date.
-
Attendance and Make-Up Classes
Attendance at both workshop sessions is strongly recommended. If you are unable to attend a session, a make-up class may be arranged alongside another workshop or by agreement with the Studio Manager, subject to availability. -
Studio Access and Additional Tuition
Participants are not permitted to use the studio unsupervised or during normal business hours unless prior approval has been granted by the Studio Manager. If a participant does not complete their project within the allocated workshop time, additional tuition may be arranged at a cost of $70.00 per hour. -
Workshop Changes or Cancellation
If Monte Lupo is required to postpone or cancel a workshop due to venue, equipment, staffing, or material issues, participants will be notified as soon as possible. Alternative workshop dates or make-up sessions will be offered where practical. -
Care of Artwork
Every effort is made to handle and fire your work with the utmost care. However, as ceramics can be unpredictable, breakages or kiln-related issues may occasionally occur. Where possible, damaged pieces will be repaired by our skilled studio team. If a piece cannot be repaired, participants will be offered the opportunity to remake their artwork during studio time at no additional cost.
We look forward to welcoming you to Monte Lupo Studio and helping you create a beautiful collection of handcrafted ceramic wall flowers. 🌸
