Our Story
Slow, simple living.
Wildling Studio is a space dedicated to cultivating creativity, joy and wholehearted living. Set on a windy ridge overlooking Cherhill White Horse, you’ll find a creative studio surrounded by two acres of land comprising a wildflower meadow, bee hives, young orchard, and a wonky and wild kitchen garden.
Having experienced periods, as so many of us do, of deep pain and disconnection, I wish to continue the vision of creating a space where I can share all the tools and resources that help my heart stay open and mind balanced. A space that empowers healing by deepening our connection to the earth, to creativity, to each other and to life.
At its core, Wildling is a ceramic studio, but venture further and you’ll find a space not only to share what I have learnt and love, but one which encourages collaboration with small businesses, local crafts people and therapists.
If you’re curious about working with me - get in touch.
Wholehearted living is about engaging in our lives from a place of worthiness. It means cultivating the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough. It’s going to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn’t change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging.

OWNER
Sarah Glazier-Hart
With over 12 years of experience creating and teaching ceramics, I have had the privilege of guiding many people on their creative journey with clay. Teaching pottery and other traditional craft skills allows me to combine my love of working with my hands with the joy of empowering others to explore their own artistic expressions.
My own ceramic work is inspired by the beauty found in living simply, in tandem with nature. I hand build my high fired ceramic homeware slowly and with great attention to detail, wanting to imbue those everyday rituals of preparing and eating food with joy. My work is characterised by organic shapes, the tactile nature of materials and beautiful glazes in soft tones.
I first discovered Wildling Studio when I joined the wild swimming group for a refreshing dip in the summer of 2022. New to Wiltshire, and mum to a 2 year old I was seeking community and connection. I went on to teach workshops at the studio and volunteer my time on the land, finding the friendship and connections I was yearning.
When I am not creating at the studio you can find me with hands buried in the earth, growing and tending to vegetables or trying out my latest craft obsession with my little boy, Jesse - at the moment we are enjoying collecting and pressing flowers.
FOUNDER
Camille van Hoegaerden
What makes my heart sing? For me, it’s a deep, slow, steady relationship with the land I live on, gently attuning to the ebb and flow of the seasons. Experiencing the heartfelt joy of adventuring in good company, taking the time to explore creativity in all its many forms, and practising an embodied movement system which gives me a wonderful opportunity to feel comfortable in my body.
If I’m not outside with my four legged friends, or off in search of the next best wild swim spot, you’re likely to find me surrounded by dried flowers, and scraggly branches speckled with lichen.
Wildling Studio is so much about bringing people together, I often wonder at it’s founder being such an introvert! So for now, I to trust the subtle intelligence of life, in that so often we end up creating what we need the most.
