Spring Break is here, but it's still -10 outside and snowy in Calgary. The kids are antsy to get…read moreout of the house so off to Color Me Mine we go for an afternoon of pottery painting fun! I've painted at other pottery places before, but this is my first time at Color Me Mine. I was impressed by the great selection of pottery pieces available and there was so much to choose from that the kids were picking a piece, changing their mind, and then changing it again! They even had licensed character pottery pieces like Snoopy, Peanuts, Hello Kitty, and Monsters Inc! We finally settled on a fairy riding a unicorn piece (Can it get any more girly than that?) and my daughter had so much fun picking out paint colours. The staff working at the Color Me Mine Kensington location was a huge help explaining how to get the most vibrant colour from the paint, how long the whole process takes, and she was came around to change the water frequently. She even showed my daughter the kiln and explained how the whole process worked to fire the pottery. We had a great afternoon and I can't wait to see the finished result!

Such a great place to spend an afternoon. Lots of options, Amazing, sweet staff who are super…read moreaccommodating and polite.

I had a lot of fun here with my girlfriend, I painted another little monster and the missus started…read moreon a new plate set. So well end up going a lot over the next year. The only reason I didnt rate 5 stars is because I felt their selection of pre-made pieces to paint was a bit lacking. I think thats because they are trying to get into a "make your own piece then paint it kinda plan" But that didnt helpe me then! The owner was a bit of an odd duck but she is SUPER nice and helpful so thats cool. My girlfriend also really likes her, so bonus points. Its a good place to do crafts

My experience at Fire Escape was with a group of colleagues. It's a great spot for team building…read morebecause you gain some insight into other people's level of creativity, you share ideas and you engage in conversation which is light and fun because you're mostly engrossed in your own project. We brought food to snack on and made a big mess, which was lovely. It took me awhile to choose the pottery I wanted to decorate, as they have enough variety to make your decision a bit challenging. They had more than enough tools for me to create what I wanted from an artistic perspective and considering the experience as a whole, I'd say the cost was worth it. There ended up being a flaw in my bowl after they removed it from the kiln, so they actually let me come back and make another one, which I most definitely took advantage of. The bowl was not flawed enough that I didn't want it, so I ended up with two! I wouldn't go back regularly, but it's something I'd recommend you experience at least once. I think it would make for a fun girls outing or date option. If you decide to check it out, I'd suggest you make a reservation.

I went in for a glass fusing workshop for 2. In addition to the Groupon cost, I purchased large…read moreglass plates for an additional $160. A staff member called me a month later and told me one plate fused properly but the other one completely cracked in the kiln. And that when I come back I should get a refund for the one that cracked I called back 1 month later and the owner picked up and I asked what would be a good time to pop by to pick up the 1 piece that was fused properly and how getting a refund works for the other piece. He explained that they disposed off the 1 piece that survived as it had been 60 days (no one mentioned they throw out your work after 60 days...it wouldn't hurt to mention that in the phonecall) and he also said he had no record of anything related to the other plate cracking in the kiln and would not give me my money back. That's basically well over $200 gone down the drain. I can understand the 60 day policy of throwing things out, however if they lose/break your work they should keep record of it and give you a refund. I tried to explain the day I went, a little bit about the staff member but the owner said he had no way of knowing so couldn't process a refund.

We bought the Groupon for ceramic painting for 2(good for $50 worth of ceramics) and decided to…read morebook in advance for Saturday morning. The shop wasn't busy (we were the only ones there), so we got a tour and explanation of types of ceramic paints and how to paint with it right away. The selection of ceramics were good, but it would have been nice if they had more different sized bowls, and maybe even some crochet yarn bowls as well. We really enjoyed painting our vase and lucky kitty. It took us about an hour or so to paint both items. Their staff is really helpful and attentive, so it made our first attempt in ceramic painting extremely easy and enjoyable. The only thing I was disappointed with was that it will take 2 weeks to get our ceramics back. Overall, we recommend trying out ceramic painting at Artopia. Their helpful staff makes all the difference, especially if it's your first time.
