Whitepine Studios

Celebrate your heritage and creativity in this unique clay workshop for adults! Create a one-of-a-kind cup adorned with your family crest or a last name initial design. (If you’d like to feature your family crest, please send us a photo one week in advance of the workshop so we can size it and print a stencil of it for you to use.) Send it to info@whitepinestudios.org with the subject Family Crest For Workshop.

In this class, you'll learn hand-building techniques to shape your cup and then carve or emboss your personalized crest using stamps and sculpting tools. Add intricate details to make your creation truly special. Once the cup is complete, choose a glaze to give it the perfect finishing touch.

The finished cups measure approximately 6 inches tall and 4 inches round and are both drinking and dishwasher-safe.

Whether it’s a tribute to your ancestry or the start of a new tradition, this project is a meaningful way to combine art and family. All materials are included—no prior experience needed!
