Gingerbread House Lantern
🏠Hand build a ceramic gingerbread house to light up your home at Christmas
Class Information
A hands-on pottery class at Crafty Monkey Studio, St Neots, where you'll be guided step by step to make your own ceramic gingerbread house lantern from clay using the slab building technique.
This is one of our House Lantern Pottery Class projects, so if you fancy a festive twist on our classic house lantern, this is for you. Decorate your house with clay candy cane, gingerbread men and sweets, however sweet you want to make it is up to you.
You will then get to decorate your lantern further with colour in the same session.
Once finished, we'll glaze and fire your piece, ready to pop a tealight inside and bring a warm, gingerbread glow to your home.
