I actually had a work team building here and everyone LOVED it... so much so that they all want to go back. The staff is super friendly, they explain everything, they have a great selection of pottery to paint, and their prices are very fair. They give you all the tools you need to make a beautiful piece. It takes one week to glaze and have your item ready for pickup. Parking is a little iffy only because this is a busy parking lot packed with other businesses.

Oh, this was such a fun night!…read more My friend had been here before. She has a long history of knowing fun places-and I happily followed her here. It was everything I hoped for and more. It's so colorful and cheerful inside. You can feel the creativity flowing and gelling. Inspo is everywhere. The staff were so welcoming and supportive-especially to someone who still paints like an elementary school kid (that would be me). We paid $10 for the special ghouls night out session... but I've heard you can do walk ins, too. There are shelves full of all sorts of figures and plates and other pottery to choose from. The prices are on the bottom-and that covers the paint and the firing. My friend and I had a table to ourselves-and could spread out our snacks and drinks (they had cupcakes, cookies and small cans of soda available but you can also byob and foods. We brought charcuterie items, champagne and pumpkin doughnuts). It was such a relaxing and happy experience-painting, snacking and chatting. The staff checks on you. You can also go ask for more paint at any time. My spider won't win any awards-but he sure was fun to decorate! I can't wait to see how he'll look after firing. I'm told the colors will darken. It should be ready for pickup in about a week. I'm told they have art classes, day camps and summer camps and that you can hold parties here. It's fun for all ages and I may bring my mom, sister and niece here for some three generation bonding. It's a comfortable space with lots of easy parking available. I'm already looking forward to going back. See you there?!

The shop itself is an adorable little gem, very comfortable, not overwhelming. Josie was amazing at explaining the process and was helpful throughout when we had questions (yes, even "dumb" ones). The Studio features simple, yet aesthetically pleasing pieces to choose from with a wonderful array of paints to choose from. THERE IS A DESIGN CENTER! This means you can choose from stencils of all sizes and patterns, stamp type devices to imprint designs, and best of all....a computer to search images that the studio will then image and re-size for you on the spot to have a custom stencil for your creation! I've tried painting my own wine glass, blah blah...hideous, but really I was in it for the experience. This studio raised the bar so much for me! I can make my own pieces that I will use on a daily basis that I just love... Headed back in a few weeks, I'm hooked! Who knew that this artless girl could be so...artsy? Potters House most certainly had my number- ADORE, LOVE, REVISIT.

Contacted two of my girlfriends and we decided to go. Called ahead spoke to the owner Andrea. Didn't know what to expect when we arrived there. She had a table ready for us very impressive. A lot of selections to choose from which took us a while. The atmosphere was very relaxing felt at home after we chose what we decided to paint. Andrea explained all the instructions. Her staff constantly checked in on us to make sure if we needed anything or had questions. We had the best time ! Definitely recommend this establishment to just a fun time, relaxing and painting and talking to people. Can't wait to go back!

I will say it's not the cheapest activity to do since they charge for the item and a studio fee so expect to pay around $35 if you choose something to paint on the cheaper end. We had a great time nonetheless! It was also tough to find parking since the parking garages were full we had to park in a further one so expect that if you go on the weekend like we did. Would definitely go back!

Such a fun, indoor activity on a summer afternoon!…read more My friends and I came here after brunch and we had a blast. We had a group of 6 and made a reservation ahead of time. The staff was welcoming and helpful throughout our time there. For most of our group, it was our first time. You start by grabbing your piece, deciding on a design, choosing your colors, then you paint your design, and add the number of layers that they recommend. There were so many great pieces to choose from that were all reasonably priced. During the time we were there it was busy, but easy to move around the shop and quiet enough for our group to all chat while we worked. When we finished painting, they collected our pieces and we paid. I just got my finished piece and I love it!! Great experience!

For ceramic painting you only pay the price of your piece and can spend as much time as you need, including coming back as many days as you like before your piece is fired. A little less polished than some "paint-your-own" spots, but with its own special charm. They have a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for families or anyone who struggles with feeling rushed when arts and crafting!

I called about 3 weeks in advance to book a private party in their small room. There were 12 of us (7 adults and 5 children). When I called to book I spoke with Anna who was super helpful in answering all of my questions. She was also our guide the day of the party. We were able to bring in our own food and drinks for the party. I will note that the party room does not have a ton of extra space if you have a larger party. There is a counter that can be used. Once our whole party arrived Anna gave instructions on what price point to stay within (pre arranged) and sent us off on our own to choose which ceramic we wanted. Then she instructed us to pick which colors we would like. You start with 4 and can add more as needed. Then we got to work. Our whole group was engaged in their project. We laughed and had a wonderful time. Once we were finished she collected our ceramics to store until they were put in the Kiln. The wait time was about 2 weeks. I would recommend for all ages and group sized.

Yesterday I had a good experience checking out, but fair experience finding what I wanted in the…read morestore. I needed patches for shirts that had holes, and I wanted to cover them decoratively. The woman in the aisles told me they had none in the store. When I told her that I found them on line, she said, "You should have called." Direct and to the point. She kept working. I browsed the aisles, and found some items I needed, and got in line to pay. While waiting, I decided to buy face covers with my 50% off coupon - $9.99 instead of $19.99. Cashier was friendly and efficient. Today, Raven helped me get a refund for the face covers. The material was too thin and too small for Husband. Raven was polite, efficient, and I knew she was smiling behind her face mask. I was in and out in record time. The store is clean, well laid out, has great inventory, and most of the staff are a joy. All wore masks, and stickers on the floor helped check outs maintain social distancing. I will continue to patronize this location - especially for Raven!

They always have a coupon for most stuff and I really like they appreciate the Military and give us a discount. Although you can only use one couple at a time. I bought a cricut maker and am so excited to use it. They had a lot of the supplies for the machine on sale which is a big plus. Supplies and the machine are not cheap but I hope to make some money one I learn how to use it.
