About the Course

Join us this June for a week of slow, mindful making in our plant-filled Walthamstow studio. Whether you’re new to clay or have been throwing for years, this immersive course offers space to learn, experiment, and enjoy the rhythm of working with your hands.

Over the course of the week, you’ll be guided through a range of techniques with time to settle in, explore form and function, and focus on creating a few pieces you truly love. Think of it as a creative pause—a little clay retreat in the city.

The course runs across one week in early August, with a final glazing session on Sunday 31st August, 4:30–8:30pm. All levels welcome.

Materials

On your first day, you’ll receive your own SkandiHus apron, tool kit and tote bag to use during the course—and take home with you afterwards. It’s our little way of welcoming you into the studio.

The course includes unlimited clay, slips and glazes. You’ll be working with our buff stoneware clay and have access to a wide range of tools, moulds, and our signature studio glazes—all mixed in-house and used by our founder, Stine, in her own practice.

See our range of glazes available.

What to Bring

Please bring clothes that can get dirty, creative energy and ideas!

We recommend bringing a towel, a bottle of water and lunch, or we can point you in the direction of some delicious local food options nearby.

We will send you our student handbook prior to the start of the course, with all the information that you need to know.

What if I miss a class?

Please note that we cannot accommodate students making up missed classes at other times, nor can we allow students to swap their classes to another date. Please therefore make sure before booking that you can attend all dates including the glaze session.

A small note on sustainability & values

We do our best to keep things gentle on the planet—recycling materials, using renewable energy, and keeping waste to a minimum. You can help too by reusing your course materials where possible and bringing your own packaging when collecting finished pieces.

We believe business can be a force for good—so alongside running joyful, creative studios, we’re committed to doing things properly:

– Paying all staff London Living Wage or above

– Keeping our spaces kind, inclusive and stress-free

– Supporting causes like the ARC food bank and Ella’s, a charity helping survivors of trafficking

– Donating profits from unclaimed pots to charity

– Planting trees each year with One Tree Planted

Where

SkandiHus, 11 Hatherley Mews, London, E17 4QP.

In the heart of vibrant Walthamstow, our studio sits on a charming cobbled mews and is a short walk from both Walthamstow Central and Queen’s Road.

Refund Policy

Our summer intensive courses are exchangeable up until 28 days prior to the start of the course. After this, your booking is non-refundable and non-exchangeable.

We’re a small, ethically run business - which means we pay our lovely team properly and keep our classes as accessible as possible. To make that work, we can’t offer refunds with less than 28 days notice, so please do a happy little calendar dance before booking to double-check your dates.

That said, life happens! If things go sideways: 

🤍 Inside 28 days? No swaps, but you’re welcome to gift your spot to a mate or family member (spread the clay joy!).  

Why so strict?
Each weekend, we get numerous last-minute change requests. If we said yes to all of them, we’d have to choose between cutting staff wages or hiking prices - and both options would make us really sad. By sticking to this policy, we keep things fair, keep our team happy, and keep our studios thriving.

Thanks for understanding - now let’s get making! ✨🤍✨
