At our Holiday Tree Vase workshop participants will be guided through a four hour hand build process to create a ceramic vase display for holiday charms or family heirloom trinkets. Each participant will be provided with about nine pounds of WMP / white stoneware, in prepared slabs. The instructor will demonstrate how to use spring mold forms to create the overall shape, which will take about 30-45 minutes. The instructor will show how to create openings up the side of the “tree” inorder to provide space for found small branches to be placed. Instruction and guidance on hand-sculpting and  texturing will take approximately two to two and a half hours. Instruction and guidance on underglaze application will take approximately one hour. The end product will function as a vase as well as a mixed media holiday tree.
