This is pretty cool: Claytopia -- Erie's only paint-your-own-pottery place is offering a twist on the traditional holiday party

Bring your group of more than 10 and each person can choose a mug, pencil holder or salad plate for just $10 per person. (all materials, glazing and firing are included). The best part -- you can bring your own food and drinks (or have it catered).

How fun would that be? Much better than dinner at some stuffy restaurant!

I painted a plate last week at Claytopia for Thanksgiving using the girls' hands to make two turkeys. I can't wait to see how it turned out!
