Unique Valentine’s Day Gifts for Guys: Unique Hand-Made Critters Made with Love.
I get it. Finding the perfect Valentine’s Day gift that’s thoughtful and one-of-a-kind for your guy can feel like mission impossible. It’s not even 2 months since Christmas so he’s probably got all the aftershave and socks he’ll need for the next 10 years!
But…ceramics as a valentines gift for guys?
Well, these aren’t your Grandma’s china teapots…
Each unique critter starts off as a lump of clay. They’re lovingly formed in my hands, left to dry and are refined further before being bisque fired in a kiln to 1050°C.
Once cooled, I take them out and carefully paint their colours and glazes. Each colour usually needs about 3 layers painting on, before then brushing on three more layers of glaze in some cases. Then it’s back in the kiln for their glaze firing, this time to 1245°C.
Because of how I make them, once you hold them in your own hands you feel the love too. They’re very soothing, tactile and reassuringly robust (I can’t be trusted around fragile things, I’m crazy clumsy) I pour my heart into creating each critter and those that hold them recognise it.
Put the phone down, pick up a critter and reconnect with how therapeutic the sense of touch feels.
My hand-made ceramics aren’t just gifts; they’re meaningful pieces of art influenced by the incredible wildlife found throughout the British Isles.
