If you are really that interested in pottery, then you may want to consider certain things when it comes to setting up a studio.
· How interested are you in pottery? Are you just doing it for fun or are you looking to get into it as a business? The answers to these questions will help you determine the amount of space that you will need for the studio. If you are just doing it for fun then you will survive working from your back yard. If however, you are doing it as a business and hope to grow it big, then you should consider getting a studio away from home.
· Are you going to be building pots through hand building or by throwing? Those who build by hand can manage to do so from a space that is small most probably from their house.
· When considering setting up a studio, it is wise to consider storage space for working tools and materials as well as for the pots that will be created.
· Consider your plumbing needs. Pottery requires a lot of work with water. However, it is important to think of how you will get rid of any waste waters from the process as clay water should not be dumped down the plumbing system. They will easily clog the system.
