Thrown Candlesticks

Thrown Candlesticks

Candlesticks are such a versatile project. You can make them elegant and fancy or county chic and casual. In this class I will show you how to make a candlestick on the pottery wheel.
This is a great project for testing out wheel thrown shapes and glaze combinations. They also are great sellers at craft and art fairs or if you sell your work online. This class is perfect for all ages and skill levels.
