Personalised Pottery Christmas Decorations

Create your own personalised pottery Christmas tree decorations in an enjoyable and creative course. There is no need to have any prior knowledge or experience as Clare will guide you on how to make your pottery perfect! The two sessions allow your makes to be fired ready for painting on the last session.

Join us to create your own Christmas tree decorations. You will learn the pottery techniques needed to create a hanging decoration from clay. We’ll also play with decorative techniques to create patterns on the surface of your decorations.

At the end of the session you will have made Christmas decorations with beautiful surface patterns. Each one can be personalised making them the perfect gifts for Christmas. On the second session we will add colour to our decorations. It will be a relaxed session of painting to add the final touches to the designs.

Clay needs to be fired after it has been dried. For this workshop this will take place between the sessions so the decorations are ready to be painted in the second session. As is sometimes the case with clay there can occasionally be a degree of unpredictability with the firing timings and outcomes. This project has been planned to have a minimum chance of any issues but we like to explain that this is always a factor when working in clay. This is the joy and challenge of making pottery!

You will learn all the techniques needed to create your decorations so join us if you’ve had no pottery experience or if you’ve had experience but enjoy the chance to learn a new way to design and work with clay.

No need to bring anything along with you as everything you need will be provided on the day including cuppa's and biscuits!

At the end of the two sessions you will have completed your decorations and they will be ready to take home once the paint has dried. You can choose whether to take them home wet or pop in the day after your last session to pick them up from us.
