I arrived early and was able to be seated before the rest of the women arrived. This was my first ever pottery class so I decided to make a mug. Other people in class also made a mug or a bowl or a ring holder. The class was a couple of hours long so we had enough time to design our items as well. Our instructor was Mariah and she was lovely; knowledgeable and such a great teacher. I will definitely take another class here or at the other location in the future.

They have plenty of items to pick from and the prices are all on the pieces. The service is good and they bring you the paint you need. The worker reminded us right at the 2 hour mark that we had to finish up and leave, or that we could take our pieces to go and bring them back. We decided to just stop our pieces and leave them as is. We came back a few weeks later to pick up our finished pieces. Overall a fun spot that I've been to a few times, but definitely not affordable as a regular hobby.

I came here for their Holiday paint-your-own ceramic ornament. For this particular workshop you can choose between quick-dry acrylics or glaze and fire option. The staff is friendly and helpful, and they regularly check in to offer suggestions and guidance. You do not need to have any experience at all. Overall, 5 stars for a fun activity.

It was very crowded and all the staff seemed busy, so I reached for some paint on my own. A staff member then abruptly took it out of my hand and told me I should ask someone next time. I understand the policy, but the way it was communicated felt rude and a bit condescending. It could have been handled more politely, especially given how busy it was. After this interaction I felt pretty uncomfortable there.

I found Little Shop of Crafts while searching for a fun spot for my niece's sixth birthday, and it…read morewas a total hit! What really sealed the deal for me was the ability to paint and leave with your masterpiece on the very same day. It was super important for the kids to take home what they worked on; waiting a whole week for a pot to cure and dry is something we can save for a future birthday. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed. There were other kids happily making soap, and the woman who greeted us kindly explained that we could pick whatever we wanted to paint. Once we selected our items, we paid and were set up at a table with paints, brushes, and an apron. I'm so glad she made sure we knew the paint didn't wash out of clothes. Pro-tip: Even if you're not painting, wear the apron. Trust me, your shirt will thank you for this advice! The kids had an absolute blast. It was so interactive, and once they finished, they had blow dryer stations so we could dry the paint. The best part? They took the painted items to the back and made them all shiny! This place is a definite hit. And I hear it's fun even for adults with no kids in tow. Girls' night, anyone? Sign me up!

I visited with my mom twice now, and I'm going to average the number of stars based on the two…read moreexperiences that I had. Fortunately, the number of stars that I had for each experience was five. The first time around I painted the Cinderella figure and my mother painted the pumpkin figure. The second time around we painted mugs. The two projects required two different types of paint. Unfortunately, the prices are kind of insane. The Cinderella figure was $49.99 plus tax, the pumpkin was $29.99 plus tax, and both mugs were $29.99 plus tax. Even though it was expensive I still had so much fun and everything I made came out looking great. Everything my mom made came out looking great. I can see myself coming back, and I can't wait to see what my pieces look like once they're out of the kiln.

If you are looking to have a fun time, DO NOT GO HERE!! If I…read morecould give zero stars to this place, I would. I have never had such a horrible experience, and I've gone to many pottery painting studios. We came as a family and picked out a large piece to work on together and even though we were all paying a studio fee, the paint was getting rationed to us, and they got annoyed when we ran out and asked for more. SO stingy and unpleasant. Grace hovered over us the whole time, interfering and telling us how much paint to use (she didn't want us to use too much even though I knew from past experience that it needs 2-3 coats of paint or else it looks streaky) It was just so unpleasant. There are no prices on the pieces, and they only allow three paint colors - the whole thing had a dishonest and stingy feel. The owner was mad and huffy because we were working on a large piece together as a family instead of individual pieces. An expensive piece mind you! One of the benches was shaky which made it hard to paint and when we asked to switch for a chair that no one was using we were told we were making too many requests and we should leave! I have NEVER - in any other painting studio - had my paint colors restricted or rationed or told how many coats I can put on the piece or how many people can work together THIS WAS RIDICULOUS!!!! There are so many other local pottery places - find somewhere more kind, family oriented and friendly if you want to have a good time. I wish I would have read the other one star reviews before I came here because what they describe was exactly my experience.
