Looking for the perfect holiday gift and a way to unwind? This season, consider a cathartic session of painting your own pottery. After a few years filled with increased decision-making and little normalcy, this creative activity is a gift you can give yourself while crossing a gift for someone else off your list.
Whether you prefer guided, seasonally-themed classes or enjoy painting on your own in a well-equipped studio, a handmade gift benefits both the maker and the receiver. Check out your local Paint-Your-Own Pottery (PYOP) studio for new classes and events to get into the Thanksgiving or Christmas spirit.
PYOP studios offer more than just pottery painting. With a wide range of artistic endeavors such as canvas painting, glass fusing, and wheel throwing, there’s something for everyone. If you can’t find a class that speaks to you, a classic hand-print turkey is always a great option for a keepsake piece.
When planning your holiday decor, envision your table set for Thanksgiving. Pie platters, plates, napkin holders, and other decorations can be hand-painted on premium bisque pottery, creating lasting memories. With family visiting from out of town, creating a piece together can memorialize your cherished time. Consider a pitcher with everyone’s handprints for Grandma or a picture frame for someone you can’t always be with – it’s a perfect way to show your gratitude.
