If you absolutely have to have it ready for Christmas, please paint your pottery piece before the end of the day today. We will do everything in our power to get it through the kiln and have it fired and ready in time for you to have it for Christmas. Pick up will be 12/24 11am-4pm. (Assuming the Kiln Gods and Weather Gods are in our favor- that's the only exception to this guarantee, you know, the major things outside of even our expert control.)
