🎨 Merry & Bright: Paint Your Own Holiday Ceramics 🎄
🗓 Date: Monday, December 1st ⏰ Time: 6:30 PM 📍 Location: Hammer & Stain North Shore — 211 Rantoul St, Beverly MA
Christmas is officially TWO months away — so we’re kicking off the holiday season with a festive night of painting, creating, and Christmas cheer! ✨🎅
Join us for our Merry & Bright: Paint Your Own Holiday Ceramics Workshop and get a head start on the most wonderful time of the year!
Choose from a fun collection of nostalgic Christmas and winter ceramics, including vintage-inspired Christmas trees, trucks, gnomes, gingerbread pieces, snowmen, and more. Then make your project completely your own with your favorite colors, finishes, and creative details.
Whether you come with friends, make it a family night, or treat yourself to a little holiday “me time,” this is the perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit. Our instructors will be there to guide you along the way as you create a one-of-a-kind piece you’ll be excited to display year after year.
✨ Paint It & Take It Home!
No waiting for a kiln! Our ceramics DO NOT need to be kiln-fired, which means your hand-painted holiday masterpiece goes home with you that same day.
Choose from 25+ paint colors at the studio, so you can go traditional, whimsical, neutral, colorful — or completely your own!
🌟 Add a Little Extra Shine
Want to give your finished piece a beautiful glossy look? Add one of our optional finishes:
✨ Shimmer Gloss Top Coat — $5 🌟 Glossy Top Coat — $5
Add your glaze when registering or decide at the workshop!
For projects featuring mini Christmas bulbs, multicolored bulbs are included. Prefer the classic look of all-clear bulbs? Upgrade to clear mini bulbs for $5.
Photos are examples only. You'll choose your own colors and creative details at the workshop!
