Holiday Helper Gnomes with Becky Zee  

November 10, 2024

1-4 pm

 

This festive little guy is sure to bring the spirit of the season into your heart and your home! In this class you will learn how to build your very own gnome from a simple slab of clay and some extra bits and pieces. You will also learn how to make candy canes, holly leaves, and whatever else your gnome needs to “get festive” (requests taken!). After you are done, you'll be provided with all the holiday-themed clay paints you’ll need to add those finishing touches.  

 

All skill levels are welcome. Kids are welcome, with a recommended minimum age of 12. All creations will be given a food-safe, dishwasher-proof clear glaze and fired off site. Finished gnomes will be brought back to MBG for pickup two weeks after the class. Class fee includes all materials and use of any tools needed to bring your creation to life. All YOU need to bring is your imagination and wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty.
