Build Your Own Toad Abode

Get your hands muddy—and build a home a toad would actually brag about.
Join us for a laid-back, hands-on workshop where you'll design and build your own ceramic toad abode from scratch. Whether you're here for the garden upgrade or just want to make something a little weird and wonderful, this class is all about having fun with clay.

You'll learn handbuilding techniques to shape and assemble your toad house, then customize it with textures, doorways, and all the personality you want to pack into it. Go simple and earthy or full-on funky—we’ll guide you every step of the way.
