🍪 Making spirits bright, one cookie plate at a time

Upcoming Dates:

  • Monday, November 23rd from 6:30–8:30pm

  • Thursday, December 3rd from 6:30–8:30pm

Santa's cookies deserve more than an ordinary plate. 🍪

This holiday season, make something you'll look forward to bringing out year after year! Join us for a festive Paint & Sip workshop where you'll design your very own ceramic cookie plate, just in time for one of the sweetest traditions of the season.

Think handwritten notes to Santa, candy cane stripes, colorful bows, playful lettering, or a classic "Cookies for Santa" design. Whether your holiday style is nostalgic, minimalist, or a little over-the-top, you'll create a plate that's completely your own.

We'll show you how to decorate with colorful ceramic underglazes and use a technique called sgraffito to scratch patterns, lettering, and illustrations into your painted design. And because you can't make a cookie plate without cookies, we'll have some sweet treats to snack on while you paint and sip your way into the holiday spirit.

No pottery experience or artistic skills needed. Just come ready to get creative and enjoy a couple of hours of holiday fun!

🎨 What You'll Do

  • Design Your Cookie Plate: Start with a pre-made 8" ceramic plate and bring your holiday vision to life using colorful underglazes. We'll have plenty of inspiration and ideas to help you get started.

  • Paint & Carve: Learn the basics of sgraffito, a fun decorating technique where you scratch through layers of color to reveal the clay underneath, creating patterns, illustrations, and lettering.

  • Make It Personal: Add a name, the year, a sweet message to Santa, or your own festive details to create a keepsake you'll bring out every December.

Once you're finished, we'll take care of the clear glazing and kiln firing so your plate is ready for Christmas Eve cookies!

🍷 What's Included

  • Wine to sip while you paint

  • Cookies to snack on and get those creative juices flowing 🍪

  • Tea and sparkling water

  • One 8" ceramic plate per person

  • Colorful underglazes, decorating tools, and design inspiration

  • Clear glazing and kiln firing

🎄 A New Holiday Tradition Starts Here

Make one for your family, bring a friend for a festive night out, or create a handmade gift for someone who loves Christmas just as much as you do.

And if Santa isn't stopping by your house this year? No problem. Your plate works just as well for holiday treats, homemade cookies, or whatever sweets you're keeping all to yourself.

No experience needed. Just come ready to paint, sip, snack, and make something worth keeping.

✨ Holiday Pickup

Your finished plate will be clear glazed and kiln-fired by our team. Our usual turnaround for this workshop is approximately 3–4 weeks, but we'll be prioritizing these holiday pieces to make sure they're ready for pickup before Christmas! We'll email you as soon as your plate is ready.
