NZ$84.80
sold out

At MUD, we really value the accessibility of hand-building - you don’t need any fancy tools or equipment to get started - your very best tools are your own two hands. As you progress in your home practice, you’ll find all sorts of common objects come in handy - like standard cutlery, a rolling pin, pebbles or shells.

We’ve included some key hand-building tips to help you have the best experience possible, followed by a step by step guide to creating your own cute hand-made mug. This kit introduces the foundational hand-building skills of pinching, joining, and adding simple handles.

Unlike many other home clay kits, the cost of firing and glazing your finished work is already included here - MUD provides full firing services for all Auckland-based customers. You don’t need to worry about hunting down firing services, or ensuring this clay is okay for a different studio to fire - it’s a package deal baby! 

When your finished mug has dried for two weeks or more, simply email us to book in your prepaid firing and glazing services at MUD Studios!

1kg of creamy speckled stoneware clay

2 bamboo skewers

2 paper squares

Detailed instruction booklet and helpful tips
