Handmade Holiday: Clay Gingerbread Cookie Creatures

with Eileen Bos

Friday, November 13 | 11 am – 2 pm

Using Sculpey Polymer Clay, we will soften and roll the clay out with a rolling pin, and use gingerbread cookie cutters to begin our creature creations... each cookie creature will have hand painted glass eyes to install, and we will use pre-colored polymer clay to add decorations, creating buttons & details to help bring them to life! They can be made into ornaments, magnets, pins, etc. They can even sit upright & be glued to the top of a cookie jar for future Christmas cookies! All materials will be included in this class.
