- Wear clothing you don't mind getting a little messy, as you'll be working with paints and glazes.
- Allow extra time to explore the Denby shops and enjoy refreshments before or after your creative session.
- If you're painting Denby ceramics to be fired, plan a return visit or arrange for postage, as collection takes 3-4 weeks.
