Fancy getting your hands on some clay and creating something truly unique? Join us for this fun and relaxing pottery workshop where you'll learn how to make your very own ceramic house lantern from scratch.
Perfect for beginners, this hands-on session will introduce you to the art of hand-building with clay using the slab-building technique. You'll be guided through each stage of the process, from rolling and shaping your clay to constructing and decorating your lantern.
Whether you imagine a cosy cottage, whimsical fairy house, spooky tower, beach hut, or something completely unique, you'll have the freedom to bring your ideas to life and make your creation your own.
Our experienced team will be on hand throughout the workshop, offering guidance and encouragement as you develop your new skills. Working with clay is not only creative but also wonderfully therapeutic, giving you the chance to slow down, switch off, and enjoy making something by hand.
Once your lantern is built, you'll decorate it using colourful underglazes, adding all those special details that make it unique. We'll then professionally glaze and kiln-fire your piece, transforming it into a beautiful ceramic lantern ready to illuminate your home.
By the end of the workshop, you'll have learned a valuable pottery technique, enjoyed a rewarding creative experience, and created a handmade keepsake you'll treasure for years to come.

Crafty Monkey, based in St. Neots, Cambridgeshire, was founded in 2010 after Chrissy Bennett, the owner, attended a pottery painting workshop for her friend's hen party. From a one-man band, it has grown to employ 6 members of staff and is now open 7 days a week with monthly adult evenings, some of which are themed. The studio seats up to 40 people at a push, but you can book in anytime to come in and paint pottery from our extensive range. We have a party area that can comfortably seat 10 (12 people at a push).
We offer a range of things from pottery painting and build-a-bear to baby prints and 3D baby casts. We are able to tailor workshops to specific requests. You can book individual or group bookings with us - anything to suit your crafting needs! Depending on the group size and where it is, we may also be able to come out to you!
