Christmas Workshop

Christmas Handbuilding Workshop 

Get into the holiday spirit with this cosy, creative workshop where you will handbuild your own Christmas decorations using clay. Whether you’re crafting a gonk, a tealight holder, or personalised tree ornaments, this small-group session (limited to just 6 participants) offers plenty of one-on-one guidance in a relaxed and friendly setting. Perfect for all skill levels – no experience needed!

What to expect:

You’ll begin by learning simple handbuilding techniques using clay – no pottery wheel required. Guided by an experienced instructor you will make, decorate and paint your own festive pieces, such as:

• Mini gonks (Scandinavian gnomes)

• Candle tealight holders

• Hanging tree decorations (stars, hearts, snowflakes, etc.)

• Or even a custom holiday gift for someone special!

I will provide inspiration, templates and plenty of tools to play with. Feel free to bring your own festive ideas too!

All pieces will be ready for collection in approximately 3 weeks time after they have been fired, clear glazed and fired again. 

What’s included:

• All tools, materials and aprons 

• Friendly expert instruction

• Festive drinks and snacks
