Craft Classes in Kyoto: Painting Tea Cups

Continuing the run down of a few craft classes I took in Kyoto back in 2013!


Painting tea-cups at Kashogama pottery school was one of the best ones by far. Though of course I say that about all of them....


It's called Fujihira Pottery school, and it is literally five minutes walk from an amazing temple called Kiyomizu-Dera. You can even make your own pottery from scratch on a wheel, or do a painting class where you are provided with all the materials and design books. If you want to have a go, there is also a restaurant and shop nearby where you can buy professionally painted pieces and lie to your family that you made them....
