Pots and Paws<\/a> is the idea of art teacher and dog lover Rebekah Tinsley. Rebekah and her partner Max have lived in Farsley for nearly six years, and she has always wanted a pottery-painting studio, preferably within walking distance. So after a couple of years commuting and teaching at Tadcaster Grammar School, she said a sad goodbye to them so she could start her new venture at a unit in the Spinning Mill.<\/p>\nThe studio is full of blank pots, plates and bowls, along with lots of coloured paints and brushes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe idea is that people can chose their pottery, paint it however they want and then leave it with us to be fired in the kiln and collecting it later,\u201d she said. \u201cThere are also some ready-made pieces to paint and take away if people don\u2019t want to wait.\u201d<\/p>\n
For those not sure what to paint or draw, there are stencils and plenty of inspiration from Rebekah. Or there\u2019s even the option to bring your dog and add a few paw prints.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want the studio to be a fun and relaxing place for people to come to,\u201d said Rebekah. \u201cAnd as I wanted to be able to being Dora my labrador to work, I\u2019ve made it a dog-friendly studio, so dogs are welcome.\u201d<\/p>\n
The studio will open five days a week for walk-ins and booked parties. There are also evening Pots and Pour sessions<\/a>, pots are provided to paint, just bring your own drinks! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Farsley\u2019s new arty offering opens this week at Sunny Bank Mills, giving folk a chance to paint ceramics…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":301880,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8814],"tags":[748,393,4884,1860,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-301879","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-leeds","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-leeds","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114937969084212057","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301879","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=301879"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301879\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/301880"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=301879"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=301879"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=301879"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
