Christmas Glass/Mug Painting

Christmas Glass and Mug Painting is happening at Worthing Homes Community House on Wednesday 11 November, from 10:00am to 12:00pm. It's a creative workshop where you spend the morning painting Christmas designs onto glass and mugs, so you'll walk away with something you've actually made rather than something bought off a shelf.

If you're not usually the type to pick up a brush, this is a good place to start. The session is about painting, not producing a masterpiece, and the focus is on the process of getting a bit of paint on a mug and seeing what happens. It's a morning spent making something by hand, which is a nice change of pace when the rest of the week is usually just lists and errands.

And since it's a Christmas-themed session, it's a decent way to get a head start on the season. You can make a couple of things for yourself, or use the time to put together a few handmade gifts for people you know, which always feels a bit more thoughtful than a last-minute shop. It's a slow, steady way into the festive side of things, rather than the rush that usually hits closer to December.

It's a free event, so there's no cost to take part. You'll find it at Worthing Homes Community House, 25 Dominion Road, BN14 8JZ, in Worthing, on Wednesday 11 November from 10:00am to 12:00pm.
