Explore the process of designing and creating small-scale ceramic charms for jewelry, keychains, and other decorative applications. Participants will develop foundational skills in working with clay while progressing through the full making process—from handbuilding and surface design to underglazing and finishing. The course includes dedicated studio time to experiment, refine ideas, and produce a small collection of unique finished pieces. Essential materials such as high-temperature kiln wire and bead trees will be introduced to support safe and effective firing of small works.

What You Will Learn:
- Fundamentals of working with clay for small-scale forms
- Handbuilding techniques for ceramic charms
- Surface design using texture, carving, and underglaze
- Planning and producing small wearable or functional objects
- Use of high-temperature kiln wire and bead trees for firing
