How does painting your own pottery work?
It's easy! You just pick the piece you want to paint (the hard part is choosing-we have over 200 different styles to paint!) Then we show you how to use the paints and help you with ideas. You leave the finished piece with us and we glaze and fire it for you so you can pick it up in 3-6 days.
Do I need a reservation?
Walk-ins are welcome. For groups of 3 or more, please call ahead to reserve your space. Weekends are usually busier than weekdays.
Can I purchase a piece that is already painted?
Yes! Both the owner and studio manager have their pieces for sale in the studio. They will also make custom pieces for you -- great for gifts!
What are your hours?
We are open 11:00 - 6:00 Wednesday through Saturday and Noon to 5:00 on Sundays. Please note our special December Holiday Hours, Tuesday through Saturday 11:00 - 6:00, and Fridays until 9:00 pm. You can walk-in or book parties during our regular business hours and private parties are available for reservation during off hours!
Is it safe to eat off my finished piece?
Yes! The finished pieces are completely food safe. Our paints are non-toxic and are totally safe for young children and for making baby hand and foot prints.
Do I have to know how to paint?
Absolutely not! It's fun, it's easy, and we can show you everything you need to know!
What if I make a mistake?
Our friendly, knowledgeable staff is always available for hands on help so we can answer any questions you have or help with mistakes. Most paints easily wipe off so you can start again.
How much does it cost?
Each piece is priced separately and the cost includes everything -- the paint, glazing, firing, and studio time. You can use as many colors as you like and stay as long as you want. Small tiles, ornaments and magnets start at $5.
What if I don't finish my piece on my first visit?
No problem. If you don't finish during your first visit, no worries! We will keep it safe for you until you can return to finish.
Are kids welcome?
Of course! We are extremely family-friendly! Our motto is if you can hold a brush, you can paint! And of course we do baby hand and foot prints for even our smallest newborns!
