Why We Love It: The Mud Oven
This post probably should have happened a while ago, but I finally got the chance to do some arts and crafts
at The Mud Oven. I've been eyeing the ceramic skulls from outside the
window for some time, so I ventured over with some friends for a night of fun
and relaxing DIY-ing. We chose our
pieces (two skulls and a big mug) and our colour palettes and got our hands
dirty. The whole experience
definitely made me feel like a kid again and the bright primary coloured
interior and furniture really enhanced that experience even more. The staff member who was working that
night was also very helpful, giving us tips and tricks for properly painting
our masterpieces. Once we were
satisfied with our designs (two hours later!) we handed them in to be glazed
and fired in the kiln. The
ceramics come out shiny and ready to use – they’re even microwavable! – but the
whole finishing process takes about 5 days. I can’t wait to pick my sugar skull up! - J
