About this event
Get creative this Christmas at Walls of Clay in Downtown McKinney! Join us for a hands-on clay ornament workshop where you’ll design, personalize, and paint four Christmas ornaments made from real clay. Create something meaningful for your own tree, make personalized gifts, or start a new holiday tradition.
From Christmas ornaments and stocking tags to reusable gift tags and wine bottle decorations, there are so many ways to make these little keepsakes your own!
Create Four Handmade Clay Ornaments
We’ll have the clay rolled out and ready for you, along with a variety of holiday shapes, texture tools, and stamps. Choose your favorites, cut your ornaments, and add names, patterns, or other personal touches.
Then bring your creations to life with color! Paint each ornament with pottery underglazes, then leave everything with us to dry, fire, glaze, and fire again for a beautiful, shiny finish.
No clay experience necessary. We’ll guide you through the process, so you can focus on creating something special.
