handmade ornaments each year to hang on our Christmas tree.  Here is your chance to make

your very own snowflake ornament out of porcelain clay.  Using simple cookie cutter shapes

snow.  You can keep them for yourself or give them away as gifts.  This project is suitable for

adults or parents attending with children over eight years old.  No previous clay experience is

required for this class.

attends or if more ornaments are desired, please sign up for a second registration.
