Step into the holiday spirit with a hands-on pottery class where you’ll sculpt a charming ceramic cone Christmas tree lantern from scratch. Using the slab-building technique, you’ll shape your tree, carve out decorative cut-outs, and add texture with stamps and tools. Whether you're crafting a keepsake or a gift, this session is all about creativity, relaxation, and festive fun.
Held in our welcoming studio in St Neots, this workshop is beginner-friendly and perfect for anyone looking to try something new. You’ll be guided through each step -- from forming the clay to adding personal touches.
You will also get to paint your tree before your lantern is left to dry and fired in our kiln. Once ready (allow 4–5 weeks), your handmade lantern will be available for collection, ready to light up your home or gift to someone special!
What you'll get
  • A fully guided pottery session using slab-building techniques.
  • Access to stamps, cutters, pottery tools, and underglaze paints for decorating.
  • A handmade ceramic Christmas tree lantern (fired and ready for pickup after drying and going through our kiln).
  • A relaxing, creative experience in a friendly studio environment.
Knowledge required
Beginner-friendly.
What to bring
  • Just bring yourself and your festive spirit!
  • Wear clothes you don’t mind getting a little clay on.
  • Clay and underglaze paints wash easily out of clothing if things do get a little messy. Or feel free to bring an apron!

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!
