12/5 - Paint Your Own Ceramic Ornaments

Thursday, December 5, 2024
6 - 8:30 PM

The Local Hand
1912B Dorchester Ave,
Boston, MA 02124 

Join us for a cozy evening of pottery painting, festive treats, and holiday shopping. 

Each person will have the opportunity to paint up to 3 globe tree ornaments. The ornaments are ceramic so they are sturdy and beautiful once painted.  Carmen will provide tips and tricks and one-on-one instruction where desired. She will also bring inspiration images which you can use as a template or you can just improvise and explore your own ideas. 

After the class, Carmen will fire your pieces, and you will be able to pick them up at The Local Hand a couple weeks later.  (We can also ship them to you, or deliver them if you are local!)

Refreshments will be provided. All workshop participants will also receive 10% off any retail purchases they make on the day of the class. 

About your Instructor: Carmen Michel (Carmiclay) is the talented artist behind our wildly popular mugs. Carmen’s pottery is made with the intention for it to be used everyday -- durable, food safe, and made with lead-free glaze. But most importantly, it’s handmade. She “creates families, not clones.” Each piece varies slightly, only adding to their charm.  Carmen lives and works in Worcester, MA.
