Pottery Workshop: Handmade Ceramic Christmas Tree Luminary

Participants handbuild a ceramic Christmas tree luminary from scratch by shaping a cone form, carving cutout patterns to let tea light shine through, and adding a hand-shaped star topper. Attendees are served complimentary coffee during the workshop. Each piece is professionally glazed and kiln-fired by the studio, with finished trees ready for pickup in two weeks.
