Bring a little imagination and personality to the pottery studio! In this hands-on workshop, you'll create your very own whimsical, handbuilt ceramic character jar. Whether you envision a jolly Santa, a mischievous elf, a cozy gnome, a festive Christmas tree, Frosty the snowman, a favorite wild animal, or something completely your own, the possibilities are endless!
Using traditional handbuilding techniques, you'll shape and build a hollow ceramic jar with a coordinating lid, then bring your character to life with fun details, textures, facial features, and colorful clay. Make it playful, sweet, silly, or full of personality—this is your chance to create something truly one of a kind!
Once your creation is complete, it will be carefully dried, fired, and finished with a clear glaze to bring out the details and give it a beautiful finished look. Your completed piece will be ready for pickup approximately 4 weeks after the workshop.
Whether you use it as a cookie jar, candy jar, or simply a whimsical piece of handmade art, it will be a fun addition to your home for years to come!
No pottery experience is needed—just bring your imagination! All materials are included. This workshop is recommended for ages 16 and up.
