Adults: Play With Clay: Christmas Wreaths

Get your hands muddy and your festive creativity flowing as you craft a beautiful clay Christmas wreath to treasure for years to come! 

Get into the festive spirit and join us for a wonderfully creative Christmas workshop where you'll make your very own beautiful clay Christmas wreath!

Whether you prefer traditional Christmas colours or something a little more contemporary, the design is entirely up to you.

No previous clay experience is needed, just a little imagination and a willingness to get your hands messy!

Once created, your wreath will be carefully dried and kiln-fired, ready for you to return to the studio to paint and personalise your masterpiece.

A lovely opportunity to enjoy some festive creativity and make a unique Christmas decoration you'll treasure for years to come.
