Overview
Kick off the season with a holiday tradition you’ll never forget!
After Thanksgiving, it’s easy to fall into the same old holiday routine: shopping, decorating, crowded events.
This year, start with something hands-on and creative. Something you’ll unwrap every December and say,
“Remember when we made these?”
Visit our premium art studio in the heart of "The Christmas City" to make holiday ornaments you'll cherish for years.
What You’ll Do:
Learn a simple, mesmerizing marbling method and turn blank ball ornaments into one-of-a-kind treasures.
Choose from 40+ custom marbling colors to build festive palettes that capture all the flavors of the holiday season, from rich Olde Christmas reds and greens to bright Winter silvers and blues.
Create a set of coordinated matching ornaments -OR- all unique creations.
Finish with ribbon and a keepsake tag stamped:“Hand Marbled in 2025 by "You" at Whistling Studios.”
Take home 4 or more gorgeous giftables.
Why It’s Special:
You’ll leave with glowing keepsakes AND the memory of making them.
Our bright Bethlehem studio is set up for joyful, messy creating: aprons, gloves, and tools ready for you. No art background needed. Just an hour of festive play.
You’ll use professional materials that are perfectly prepared for your success.
Guests of all ages have made masterpieces here, proclaiming:
"This is the most fun I've had in years." and "I never thought I could make something this beautiful"
Who It’s For:
Groups: Friends, families, couples — make it your Saturday-After-Thanksgiving tradition.
Solo Guests: Come on your own for a festive reset and leave with ornaments worth showing off.
All Ages: Kids 15 and under must attend with an adult.
How It Works:
Choose a 60 minute session. Then create at your pace. Your creations likely won't take the whole session, depending on how many ornaments you order.
Share a station, or get your own. One station can serve a pair, or a parent-child combo. Extra ornaments available for purchase so everyone gets their fill!
Format: A quick demo, then you marble freely with pro tools and holiday palettes.
Dry Time: About 30 minutes. Most guests will take ornaments home the same day; if yours needs longer dry time, swing back later that day.
Take home in a perfectly sized Box, perfect for keeping your ornaments between seasons or wrapping as a gift (to an incredibly lucky recipient).
