Embrace the holiday spirit by decorating an air-dry clay ornament with metallic embossing powder. Dive into this fun, hands-on activity as you personalize an ornament with a shiny patina and unique designs. Choose from a variety of shapes to spark your creativity, and complete your masterpiece with a decorative ribbon, perfect for stylish hanging. Keep the ornament for yourself or create a heartfelt gift to bring a special, festive touch to someone’s holiday season.

Note: This activity will take place indoors and is on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.
