Such a CUTE spot! Family owned feel like a little coffee shop vibe from a movie just a fun place to hangout and paint In groups , alone or w/ a friend I brought my grandma for a girls day and we had a ball Several things to pick from w/ a wide range on pricing so there is something for everyone Lots of different colors to pick from n pretty self explanatory once u start (I know someone didn't like the face they used a sponge to wipe brushes ,.. we in fact loved the idea and my grandma who has been painting for decades loved it and found it so useful) Definitely a gem not to miss out on visiting read more

Only giving 4 stars because of the location. It is in a very small little house and it is almost always packed regardless of day/time of day. Parking is also not great. But their selection of paint and pottery is awesome. I also like the way they allow you to get your own paint unlike some places that limit you to colors. They have really cute pieces to paint and seems like they have a lot of seasonal switch ups which is appreciated. We did a cute little butterbell and it turned out so good! read more

I'm a sucker for a cute little small business hole in wall. And this place nails that! Plus, I may be a little biased because my parents used to run a paint it yourself ceramic shop when I was growing up. So places like this are very nostalgic for me. It's very small on the inside, compared to other do-it-yourself ceramic shops that I've been to. But honestly, I found that quite quaint and cozy. I find that their ceramic pieces were pretty affordable compared to some of the other ceramic shops I've been to in Austin. They have their paints separated by brights and detailed versus more earthy tone colors. And unfortunately, they tell you that you shouldn't mix them because they won't come out looking good. So you have to figure out what you want your piece to look like before hand, bright with small details? Or more earthy tones? My husband went with the bright and details, while my friend and I decided to go for earthy tones. My husband painted a wall switch plate, I painted a feather bowl, and my friend painted a mug. They were all done and ready to be picked up about a week and a half later. And they came out great! I enjoyed myself, and my husband and I have already discussed coming back perhaps for a date day :) read more

I've been a customer for years now whether it's date night with my husband, girls dates and dates with my kids. We've enjoyed our experience and the selection of ceramic plus paints available. The staff is very friendly and your ceramics are available for pick up 2 weeks later. The music playlists is also something that's positively noticeable. read more

Great selection of paint colors, fast turnaround time after firing, friendly and helpful staff

The past few times I've visited, the same woman has been there.(I assume she is the owner). She is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. There are lots of fun options to choose from, to paint, and a decent amount of supplies to use. The turn around time to get my finished/fired pieces was less than the week I was anticipating. I recommend bringing someone here for a nice hands-on activity and it's still quiet enough to have a conversation. read more

Ceramic Lodge - So much fun! - Art Schools Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

My mom was in town babysitting my niece and nephew. We decided to go to Ceramic Lodge along with my sister. I have been here twice before so decided it was time to post a review. If you are looking for a crafty thing to do inside and like to paint, go to this place stat!! You can pick a piece to paint...and there are TONS from which to choose. There are small pieces and large pieces. You then pick your paints and brushes and sit at a table and paint. It's really relaxing and a fun way to spend a hot summer day. The person that helped us was very friendly and super helpful. After you paint your piece, you pay and they will put your piece in a kiln and call you when it is fired and ready. I always have a fun time here...whether I'm with my niece and nephew or with friends. Check it out! read more

I had a nice time painting here, but I was disappointed by the limited selection of items and the high prices for even the smallest ceramics. I've been to a venue with a similar concept with greater variety and lower prices. The staff wasn't attentive. They spent more time talking and eating than making sure we were receiving sufficient attention. I had an okay experience but I probably wouldn't bother coming back. read more

Love this place. Their extended business hours are well thought through to accommodate all kinds of schedules. This place attracts people of all ages, kids, adults, elderly, kids parties, ... will go there again for sure. read more

I took my girlfriend in town from las vegas here and we had a great time. You don't have to make a reservation to go you can simply walk in. There's a good selection of crafts to choose from like blank canvases to ceramic pieces... I'll definitely come back. read more

We went in as a group on a Saturday. Not a busy Saturday, just a day. We paid for 6 pieces and were told we'd be called when they were done. Five days later they were done. But. Not. All. There were four pieces done and two that wouldn't be ready for another day or so. After making a trip in from Austin to pick them up, I was told they would call me when they were ready. And the girl said sorry. When I asked why they didn't fire them all together? sorry. But sorry/not sorry. Now I have to make a second trip to pick up ceramics for kids and they really couldn't care less if I'm upset. It's a small business. I get that, but don't call people when their items aren't done. And if there's a problem, act like you give a shit. Harsh review? sorry read more

Charming little shop and nice ladies help you relax, have fun and paint your piece! Great date night!

What a cute and fun place this is! I recently visited the Ceramic Lodge to help create a class auction project for my daughters 1st grade class. Patsy is absolutely wonderful! She answered all my questions and gave me advice and pointers while creating this project. I was able to rent out the paints and brushes to get the students finger prints before returning to complete the bowl. We will definitely be returning! read more

Went here mid day Tuesday (a little after 1) nobody was there all the doors were locked. I waited there till 2 and tried to go in, all doors locked. I called no answer and I just called again 2:45 and still no answer. There was not a sign in the door saying gone to lunch or anything. Not they way to conduct a business or gain/ keep customers UPDATE: Today I got a sincere voicemail from patty I believe. She explained that they close on Tuesdays in the fall. I went in and spent almost 3 hours painting. It was a calm soothing environment and patty was very kind. The hours were changed on the door I went in so on top of their welcoming attitude they quickly made sure there would be no more confusion. I will definitely be back.. but not on a Tuesday read more

I took my 2 boys here yesterday. Yelped painting ceramics - this was the closest one to my pad . . . Georgetown. It was a really cute place. Jillian was a huge help even though she was the only employee and the place was busy! They had everything you could want for designing your piece. Stencils/puffy paints/guides/lettering/etc... We had everything needed and can't wait to see our pieces done. Tip: If you go on a Thursday the studio fees are the highest for the week. (of course, that's when I went! Go figure.) Wednesdays: Kids paint free with a painting adult ($8 fee) The only reason I gave it 4/5 stars - it was a little cramped, I've given other ceramic houses 5 stars which were much more roomy. Either way, we'll be back! Thanks guys. read more

Y'all, this is such a cute spot! I must say, it's easy to drive by the place without realizing it, so keep your eyes peeled. It's such a small building but so so so quaint. When you step in, you choose a piece of pottery you'd like to paint and then pick a spot to sit down. I went with a few girlfriends and we really enjoyed painting while listening to various genres of music. My only complaint though, it was way too quiet. It felt awkward talking at a normal indoor voice level in fear of annoying people around us and we felt awkward whispering to each other because we weren't doing anything wrong. The pieces turned out very nicely, but I guess if I come back, it'll just be a solo trip because this isn't a very social environment if you're looking to catch up with people. read more

This place was amazing to celebrate my daughters 6th birthday. The owner was SO easy to work with and we had so much fun! They were super accommodating to our little party. We had a private room, had pizza delivered, she helped us figure out how to do a piñata. The items were ready in a little longer than a week and we had 8 items. She explained everything to eager 6 year olds and helped them create their masterpieces. We will definitely be going back to get our paint fix and we love supporting a local, fun business with a kind owner. read more

We had my daughter's 11th birthday party here and we all loved it! It was very fun, easy going and stress free. I have returned several times alone to paint and Patsy has been so sweet and helpful. I adore Ceramic Lodge. They have a good selection of pieces and paints. Most of all I enjoy the chill atmosphere which Patsy provides. Give it a try! read more

Fun date for my husband and I. It's a cute space and they had good COVID protocols. I felt bad for the one employee there, trying to help multiple groups on her own. It made everything slower. One lady had a question and the employee didn't know the answer so she had to call I assume the owner. That took time and we were sitting there waiting to pay. But, overall a good experience and we have nice ceramic pieces to show for it. read more

This place isn't what it use to be. It has new owners and they aren't doing a good job of running it. They have no paper towels to clean brushes. They say just use the sponges which are DISCUSTING. Filthy and totally stained with paint. The fibers come off on the piece when you are cleaning it. The studio is dirty as well. I will not go here again. Too bad it use to be a great place to paint ceramics. read more

I've been here several times - once with a group of girlfriends, once with a foreign exchange student (I wanted to expose her to pottery painting) and two times on my own. The building is over 100 years old so you can't expect it to be too big but I will use the word quaint - because it's totally cute and I love old stuff. Anyway, the owner, CC, is really nice and is usually around to help with whatever. Jillian is also a nice gal who works there, knows her craft painting, and sure is pretty awesome with kids when they show up. There are others who work there too but these are the ones that I have interacted with the most. They offer all types of ceramics to paint from bowls, to plates, to coffee mugs, figurines, jewelry boxes, and lots of kids stuff, such as ponies, angry birds, piggy banks, etc. Whoever is working will explain the procedures on how to paint and the service fee also includes them cleaning up the mess that you make when you're finished. Once you've painted whatever it is that you're going to paint, you leave it there and they glaze and fire it for you in their oven. It's usually ready within a week. If you can't find what you're looking for, you're able to place special orders from magazines they have there... I did this for trinket boxes I needed as wedding thank you gifts and they were here within a week. I also didn't get charged double (or quadruple rather) for the many times that I had to come back and finish painting this large order of trinket boxes I had, so they earn double brownie points from me. They do have a Facebook page, which is updated regularly with the special activities like Ladies Night (Thursdays) or classes that they offer. You are allowed to bring in food and drink so you can munch away while you're painting (this includes alcoholic beverages). They do offer sodas and water there for purchase as well. Oh, and they ALWAYS have the oldies rock station playing - which is pretty awesome to me! More brownie points ;) The only reason I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 is because of it being a tad bit on the cluttery side. I'm sure they are doing the best that they can with the space that they have but I feel that they should possibly hire a professional organizer to help them reorganize and maximize the space that they do have. It would make for a much more comfortable and less cramped experience when painting there. Overall, I love coming here and it's a great way to just relax if you need that "me" time but even better when you bring along friends to gossip with. read more

I go here when I need Stress Management Therapy - it helps take my mind off things that I am going through. Staff is very friendly, funny, helpful and outgoing. They have alot of cute things to paint and they have alot of things going on during the week. They are closed on Tuesdays. Only down fall is the parking is kinda tight. read more

This is such a hit with the grandparents! I bring my daughter and she paints something as a gift -- they absolutely LOVE it.

There is even a totally adorable "milk and cookies" mug. read more

My experience at Ceramic Lodge was a 10/10. The employees were incredibly helpful I have never painted on a canvas and the picture below is what I painted!

This is the best place in the world to go and get your creative juices flowing! The staff is ALWAYS helpful and courteous. I usually take my bottle of wine, meet up with friends, and enjoy the serenity. I've found that when I'm having a bad or stressful day, this is the 1st place I want to run away to. I've always thought that this is way better than therapy and much more cost efficient. You can usually find the owner, Caroline, floating around either working on some project or helping her customers out. I recommend clearing your schedule for about 2.5-3 hours so that you don't feel rushed and go in ready to relax. read more

I love coming here! Thursday nights are ladies' night and you get a free sitting fee if you either bring a snack/drink to share or participate in the theme (check out their site for themes and schedules). It is the best kind of relaxation to be able to paint something that you can use or gift to someone else and it always takes a load off my shoulders! Everyone here is super-helpful and knowledgeable about painting. I love it!!! read more

I called before going of and the young lady was great at answering right away and was able to answer all my questions with confidence. My step daughter had been there before and when we walked in the same young lady made sure to explain it to me and was great about keeping everything clean and organized. We had a really good bonding time and was able to stay out of Texas heat and the best part I didn't have to clean up.. will be back for sure. read more

We planned to go here for my daughter's 2nd birthday (I'm all about mementos we can keep for years to come). I loved the look of the place as soon as I saw it, we went in and my daughter chose an object to paint (she went for a shark - unusual for a toddler ). The staff was very attentive and guided us through the 'process' since it was our first time there. My toddler loves painting (her late grandma was a painter and her late aunt was a sculptor so I guess it's in the genes) and she enjoyed painting the shark and a Christmas ornament. Even though there were a lot of kids the noise was minimal and the atmosphere was quite pleasant (I wouldn't mind taking some 'Mommy time' there either). They have specials every day of the week from what I saw (when we went the sitting fee was half off). Will surely come back! read more

We visited last week for mothers day and met the new owners. They were making hot dogs for everyone to snack on while painting!!! Grilled outside and everything! It was pretty amazing! They are so helpful and friendly! I love the new makeover and we can't wait to pick up our creations! I made a leopard print salad bowl......pretty sure I'm going to eat every meal out of a bowl from now on! HA! We look forward to having a house full of hand painted custom dishes! read more

This place is amazing! I've come here with my aunt and younger cousins, and have had many good experiences here! The projects are as simple or as difficult as you would like for them to be! I have only done the ceramics, where you choose a mug or a plate, or a figurine, or even a tissue box or tea light holder! There's always a variety. They let you paint to your heart's content, and when you're done and you've paid, all you have to do is wait for them to call or email you in about a week or two for pickup! Easy as that! The prices are all reasonable, and the end product is always a great memory! I highly recommend this place if you have a few hours to yourself or a group of friends and/or family! read more

My daughters and I made mothers day gifts here. They had items with "MOM" on them, so they were prepared for the holiday. We were warned that the items may not be ready in time, but they were ready in time. read more

today was my first experience with the ceramic lounge. they are mainly a "paint your own pottery studio," but also offer workshops, summer camps, and host parties. you pick from a variety of ceramics they offer (plates, mugs, figurines, bowls) and paint them however you like. they glaze and bake them for you and you pick them up a week later. i went with my boyfriend and the two kids, intending to each paint a "special plate" that we could use for birthdays and special events like good grades, school honors, work promotions, etc. we ended up making three instead of four because the pieces are rather pricey ($12 for a 10-in plate) and they also charge a studio fee of $8 per adult and $5 for kids 12 and under. when you start adding up it gets expensive for a few hours of painting! it's a really cool idea, and we had a lot of fun doing it, but i felt very lost from the time we walked in. they were having AC trouble today and that may have created the hectic scene, but we got very little direction with how to proceed. the employees could have been a lot more helpful since we were complete newbies. check their website for daily specials--this can save on studio fees! we might do it again. i'm not sure yet. 2 stars off for lack of helpfulness and high price. read more
