Hand-Built Holiday Gingerbread House
Workshop
Step into the magic of the holiday season and create your very own ceramic gingerbread house! In this cozy and creative workshop, you’ll hand-build a whimsical clay house filled with charm and festive details.
A perfect experience to spark creativity, celebrate the season, and make a handmade keepsake you’ll treasure for years to come.
After the workshop, pieces will dry before undergoing firings (approximately 1–2 weeks).
Once ready, you will receive an email to arrange pickup of your finished bird feeder from the home studio.

- The first three hours of the workshop will be dedicated to building your gingerbread house and adding decorative details.
- At 12:00 PM, we will take a 30-minute lunch break (please bring something to eat). This break will also
allow the clay to begin drying and reach a leather-hard consistency. - During the final hour and a half, we’ll paint our pieces using underglazes and slip to create the magical look and bring our gingerbread houses to life.
