Bespoke hand-crafted and functional ceramics
"Clay folds, clay moulds, clay rests, clay sets,
Clay dances to the tune you love to hum,
Clay grows into the person you finally become"
-Praveen
The Ceramicist
Caeley started her pottery journey as a hobby soon after having her son three years ago. Previously a Primary School class teacher, she put her career on hold when she fell in love with clay and decided to expand and grow as a small business owner in Cape Town.
New To Blue is a space to explore your passion for clay, meet like-minded individuals and share creative ideas in a fun, relaxed environment.
Caeley offers weekly beginner classes for adults, once-off monthly workshops and private events in the New To Blue studio in Southern Suburbs.
Workshops
New To Blue hosts monthly workshops. They take place on Saturdays between 12:00pm-3:30pm.
These workshops are once-off events where you are guided through the process of making a set piece. Your piece is then glazed and fired for you in the studio.
No experience is required for these workshops and spaces are limited.
Adult Classes
These classes are ideal for someone who would like to learn all the basics of hand-building and wheelwork.
The classes cost R1500 per month. Class times:
Tuesday morning 9:30am-11:45am
Tuesday evening 6pm-8:15pm
Thursday morning 9:30am-11:45am
You will have access to a variety of clay bodies, a selection of dipping and brushing glazes, a range of tools and all firing will be done for you.
Classes are limited to 6 people per class.
All classes will be held at the New To Blue Pottery Studio at 153 Main Road Plumstead.
Private Events
Are you looking to host an intimate event where your guests can get creative, sip on bubbles, tea or coffee, and be guided through some hand-building with clay?
The New To Blue studio is the perfect place.
