Create Your Own Ceramic Christmas Tree Tealight Holder
Build a Christmas tree from clay, add openings for an LED tealight and make miniature ornaments to hang from it.
A Christmas decoration made by you
Marta will guide you through making a separate base from rolled-out clay and building your tree with coils. Pierce openings for the light to shine through, then make small ornaments and add hooks so you can hang them after firing. Some miniature ornaments can also become earrings.
No pottery experience is needed. Clay, tools, three hours of tuition and the first kiln firing are included.
Decorating is not included in the £55 price. Return a few weeks later for a separate Illustrate or Glaze Your Own Pot session, booked and paid for separately.
