Baby Handprint & Footprint Ceramic Ornaments with Arianna Olsen!
Saturday, November 15
2:00 – 4:00 PM
$20 (includes all supplies)
Baby + Parent/Guardian
Limited Space — early registration encouraged
Description:
Capture this sweet moment in time with handmade ceramic baby keepsakes! In this special parent-and-baby class, families will create clay ornaments featuring baby handprints and footprints using slab-rolled ceramics.
Parents can choose from multiple print styles:
-
Indented clay impression (pressed hand/foot into clay)
-
Trace-around print (outline of hand or foot)
-
Print using non-toxic underglaze
Indented designs can be left natural, painted after bisque firing, or finished with a wipe glaze technique to highlight texture. Cookie-cutter shapes, ceramic tools, and alphabet stamps will also be available to add baby names, dates, and sweet messages.
Each family will have time to make several ornaments — perfect keepsakes or gifts for grandparents! Ornaments will be fired and ready for pick up at the Black Friday Weekend event 11/28 & 29 12-4pm.
Supplies Provided:
All clay, stamps, cookie cutters, tools, and non-toxic glazes included.
