In this fun class, students will learn how to make beautiful and unique ceramic mushroom garden stakes that can be used to add a touch of whimsy to your outdoor space. This class is suitable for beginners and those with some experience in ceramics. Students will be provided with all the necessary materials, including clay, tools, and a variety of glazes to choose from. Step-by-step instructions will be provided by the instructor.
The mushroom stakes will need to be fired at Karen’s home ceramics studio. Students will be notified when the pieces are ready to be picked up which is expected to be within 2-3 weeks of the class.

Karen has her BS from Penn State University and her MBA from Loyola College, MD. She is the President of the Board of Directors for the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen headquartered in Lancaster, PA. Karen was drawn to ceramics because of its natural complement to cooking, gardening, and entertaining – all of which she loves. She predominantly throws (or hand-builds) functional stoneware. She is a “lifelong learner” and has been a potter for over 22 years working from her home studio in Lititz, PA. Karen’s structured clay education consists of years of workshops, regular classes, and hands-on training by a number of professional potters. In recent years she has also developed a love for stained glass and is also working regularly in that medium.
