Emily will guide your child (or children!) as they make some truly keepsake ornaments out of stoneware clay. Children 10 years old and younger need to be accompanied with a parent.

Many stamps and cutouts will be available for use and directions will be given. No prior experience with clay necessary.

The first portion of class will consist of making the ornaments out of clay, and the second portion will be painting the ornaments with underglaze. 

After class, the instructor will then bisque fire the ornaments, put a clear glaze over the underglaze, and then fire the ornaments again.

The ornaments should be ready 5-10 days after the class depending on studio workload.
