About this Event
Made with Mud: Make Your Own Gifts 🎨✨
Get ready to roll, pinch, and shape your way into the holiday spirit! In this fun, festive class, you'll create up to three handmade clay gifts—perfect for stocking stuffers, Secret Santas, or just something sweet for someone you love (yourself included!). We’ll show you how to make adorable pinch pot planters, stamped trinket trays, and other giftable goodies that are as fun to make as they are to give.
You will learn step-by-step techniques. Expect clay-covered hands, lots of laughs, and a feel-good, creative night out.
Your handmade gifts will be glazed and fired after class, and ready for pickup in 2–4 weeks—just in time for holiday giving.
