To get started, submit a form on the website, or email, owner@painted-turtle.com. Let us know what bisque piece(s) you are interested, what glazes you’d want, and when you’d like to pick up you kit.
Glaze at your own pace and contact us again when you are ready to return your kit and piece. One week later your ceramic piece will be fired and ready to pick up.
If you are facilitating for a group, the process is similar except Painted Turtle handles the deliveries and drop offs with the group’s coordinator.
