Handbuilding Ceramics: Make Your Own Candle Holder with Alyona

  • Mango in a Pot 13AHS Magalhaensplein Amsterdam, NH, 1057 VD Netherlands (map)

Take a couple of unhurried hours to work with your hands and create something both sculptural and functional – your own handmade candle holder.

In this 2.5-hour handbuilding workshop, Alyona will guide you through shaping clay into a unique candle holder that suits your personal style. Whether you imagine something sleek and modern, organic and textured, or a bit more playful, you'll learn the basics of handbuilding and have the freedom to explore your own design.

After shaping your piece, you'll use ceramic pigments to add color and detail. You can keep it subtle and natural or experiment with bolder tones and patterns – it’s entirely up to you. If you'd like a glossy finish, a clear glaze can be added after the workshop for an additional 11 EUR.

Cost: 80 EUR per person
Duration: 2.5 hours
Optional clear glaze: +11 EUR

This session is open to all skill levels – no experience needed. It’s a calm, creative space where you can slow down, experiment, and enjoy the process. You'll head home with a one-of-a-kind piece that brings a warm glow to your space (and a little reminder of time well spent).
