THE LITTLE BLACK BOOK
Handler intel.
The part ordinary travel sites do not know—or do not say.- THE OPENING LINE · Tell ceramics studio you have a clear budget, flexible timing, and want the version they would arrange for a favorite client—not the default package.
- THE LEVERAGE · Ask which beginner project reliably finishes in one session. The best class leaves with an object, not homework and regret.
- THE MONEY TRAP · Confirm whether materials, firing, finishing, tool rental, protective equipment, shipping, and the finished object are included.
- THE HANDLER MOVE · Ask, “If this were for someone you wanted to impress, what would you change?” Then stop talking and take notes.
03 · BRING THIS
- Natural-fiber clothes
- Closed shoes
- Hair tie
