What we do @ Daisyroots
Christmas is only getting closer so why not get ahead of the game and come in to create those unique and personal gifts for friends and family.
At this time of year we often out at nurseries and playgroups, so a quick call to make sure we will be here is strongly advised.

Appointments essential during the week... Ju & I are adopting a better work/life balance now we are into ages that most retire completely! Always open on Saturdays but bookings only on other days.
We can email gift vouchers for future Beginners Pottery Wheel or painting sessions.
Have you been inspired by the Pottery Throw Down on TV?
We have been busy making character pottery from our moulds for you to paint in our studio. This provides lots of choice and hopefully items that you will not find in other similar shops!
We are a cosy paint your own ceramics, crafts and pottery studio based in a 17th century mill cottage next to the river Windrush on the outskirts of Witney. We offer friendly and professional help, good value for money and easy parking just outside the door.

We are a popular venue for parties of all types.
Children’s Birthday Parties
Pottery | Mosaics | Decopatch
We can ensure that you have a creative and rewarding experience.
The maximum number of children we can accommodate is 18 although the average is 10 – 12.
Depending on the age of the birthday child we have a couple of options.
Option 1
With this party package children do their chosen craft activity for 1hr 30mins. Great if you are going on elsewhere for a party tea. Cost from £15.00 per head
Option 2
This party package is similar to option 1 but includes the use of the big downstairs table to lay out your party food ready for when the children have finished their activity. We provide paper plates, napkins, table covering. I strongly suggest bringing children’s food in picnic boxes to keep your catering easy. Add slice of cake or cup cake to their box to enjoy later at home.
As a slight variation on a theme younger children aged 5-7 can choose to paint a bowl, mug, side plate or from a selection of pottery e.g. animals etc. plus a clay hanger. Painting activity followed by party lunch or tea.
Cost from £15.00 per head plus £25.00 for the use of a party food table for an extra 30 minutes.
For either option a small deposit of £25 is required to secure the booking.
Inspired by the Great Pottery Throwdown on TV, we offer Wheel tasters and hand build clay. Plus 1:1 Potter’s Wheel.
Costs £45 for 1 hour or £65 for 90 mins. Can be shared.
2 wheels up to 2 hours with initial instruction £100
After drying and firing it’s on with the decorating and a final firing to bring out the real beauty of your work.
Finished items after glaze and firing. £7.50 per piece.
Clay Play allows children and adults to use their imagination with clay to make their own unique items.
3D Baby Castings are plaster replica of your child’s hands and feet showing skin texture, creases and nails.
The casting material is the same as used by dentists. Therefore, non-allergic and safe for your baby. Smells a bit minty!
The plaster castings are fragile and we therefore frame and have an engraved plaque to complete.

We help you achieve clear handprints even from just a few days old.
No charges for capturing prints but add £3.50+ for any finishing we do.
For that extra special keepsake we can frame your ceramic tile
Here are some recent examples.
Hands, feet or even paws are pressed into soft clay resulting in a tactile impression where you can feel all those creases!
We paint in the colour of your choice and varnish.
The clay takes a while to dry thoroughly and so allow at least 3 weeks or so for these to be finished
Pet paw prints. Bring your pet to Daisyroots studio and we can make a treasured keepsake.
Size of average plaque is 6″ square with a single paw print of a large breed dog or 2 paw prints for smaller pets, £45.

Decopatch is a cut and stick paper craft. Using small pieces of the bright, colourful papers, almost any surface can be decorated in a patchwork style. Decopatch glue acts as a varnish when dry.
We can supply you with everything you need to continue this addictive hobby at home.
