Holiday Villages and Fairy Gardens!

Let’s sculpt mini cottages, our favorite places and a truly custom holiday village! Perfect for candles, gifts,  gardens and more. This workshop is up-to-3 hours of unplugged, dirty-hands creativity and fun. Want to make a village? Sign up for multiple dates. Want to create a holiday village? All homes must be sculpted no later than mid-november to be ready in time for the holidays this year. 

In this workshop, we create little houses that can be used as fairy houses in the garden, candle luminaries, incense holders with working chimneys (our fav!) holiday villages, and more! . The buildings vary in size from 2” by 2” to about 5” by 5”—depending on the artist’s inspiration. 

We provide building textures, such as brick, planks, siding, shingles and more—as well as templates for cutting out the sides, roof, doors and windows. And—you’re also welcome to find inspiration online and bring your own tools and materials.  Plus make your own tiny stepping stones, garden path, itty-bitty gargoyles, miniature furniture and more. 

This workshop is perfect for potters of all skill levels and ages. Kids over 5 are welcome as part of a multi-person booking with a parent/grandparent to help facilitate their creation.

All firing and dip-glazing included. Because pottery painting takes significant time, a separate booking is needed for that type of glazing. We also encourage our Moscow friends to take their fired pottery to our friends and neighbors at Craft for pottery painting, drinks and snacks! 

Please be prompt: Due to the small size and shared community nature of our studio, we are unable to hold unclaimed work. Pottery that is unclaimed within three months of making  becomes the property of the studio and may be given away, sold, or donated at the discretion of the owner of the studio. Please be prompt when glazing and picking up your work so that we can continue to offer maximum access at minimal cost for our community, thank you!
