You simply pick the pottery you want to paint, and the price is listed on the bottom of each piece, which makes it easy to choose. We spent about two hours painting and had a lot of fun with it. After you're finished, they keep the piece for about three days so it can be fired and cured in the kiln. Overall, it was a really fun and relaxing experience.

The workers were polite and helpful when it came to taking our reservation and getting our table set up. I love that they have so many colors and pottery pieces to choose from. Whether it's something seasonal, something small or large, a flower pot, or a coffee mug they have something for everyone. They also advertise that you can host birthday parties there and bring your own food and drinks without a corkage fee, which is a nice option for celebrations. The space is a decent size, with tables and chairs that can accommodate both small and larger groups. However, there was a foul smell when we first walked through the door not a paint smell, but something I honestly can't describe. Toward the back of the building, there was also a strong urine smell that lingered. Overall, we had a great experience painting! Our finished pieces were ready in about 4 days, and they give you up to 3 months to pick them up, which is really convenient.

I…read morewent alone on a "solo date" to try it out, and while I did have a great time, you are very much paying for the experience (it's about $70 per plushie-making session) more so than the materials and finished product, so you would get a lot more bang for your buck if you had friends along! The ladies who helped us with the process were very patient, even with several energetic kids in the group. All of the designs are super cute and you can customize small bits of it (such as choosing the placement of the eyes and mouth). There are also extra accessories you can add on for a bit of a price (but it's because they are premade handmade crochet items so there is cost of labor involved!) I made a blue dino with blue spikes and although he came out a little more rotund than I expected, I love the finished product!

They did provide cups but we were not aware we needed to bring ice. There were about 20-25 Mat options to choose from with a variety of cute, funny, to more bold sayings. Once selected we were sent back to our stations (5 to a section) for further instruction. The employee on our side was a little rude to some of the other guests. He was in his phone more than assisting. We were only allowed one paint color per person at a time. I'm sure this is probably to avoid waste, and accidents since space was very limited at the stations. I do think it's a bit pricey for what you get. The Mat is very rough and pieces of it are all over my car just from the drive home. I'm not sure how long it will last but it's rather small for $50. Overall I loved the experience and we had a great time!

Kiky Mats Valentine's Experience - 5 Stars!…read more We had an amazing time at Kiky Mats celebrating Valentine's Day in style! From the moment we walked in, the vibes were for the culture--warm, welcoming, and full of great energy. The hosts were attentive, engaging, and straight-up lit, making sure everyone was comfortable and having fun. They set the tone right by greeting us with champagne, and from there, it was nothing but good music, good people, and creativity flowing. Designing our own custom doormats was such a unique and fun experience, and the team at Kiky Mats made the process easy and enjoyable. Whether you're looking for a date night idea or just something different to do, I highly recommend checking them out. 10/10 experience!

I was in the area for my birthday and she gave us suggestions on what else we could get into while we were there. They also had shoes, hello kitty and larger bears to paint. The process is very personal so that took some getting used to but I found that to be the most enjoyable about it. You get one hour to decorate your bear and if you're local you have a few days to pick it up once it dries. Our bears were $85 and shipping was $15. The delivery was smooth and my baby made it to me without any issues. I named her Fern :-). I'd definitely recommend this as a fun activity that's not liquor or food focused. Parking was a bit hectic but we were able to find something right outside. The area itself is walkable with lots of shops and places to eat surrounding it also.

It was hard for a group of Type A's to pour paint everywhere and make a mess, to get to your final piece, but we pushed through (lol) and loved our creations. And the staff was amazing.

She was outstanding especially when giving us patience and guidance through throwing clay for our very first time.

After being a member of Fire Gallery for approximately 1 year, I decided to leave and feel it is…read moreimportant to share my personal experience. During my time there, the owner, Leroy, regularly made sexually inappropriate comments during classes and open studio hours. Statements such as "lubrication is essential" and "saddle up and ride it like you'd ride your wife" were said openly, including during classes where minors were present. These remarks occurred repeatedly and made me increasingly uncomfortable. On one occasion, Leroy patted me on the butt. That incident is what ultimately prompted me to speak with him, as I felt a clear boundary had been crossed. Prior to that, I began coming to the studio very early in the morning around 6:00 a.m. Specifically to avoid interactions with him, since he typically did not arrive until late morning. During this time, a younger member confided in me that she felt uncomfortable due to repeated sexual comments made toward her. She told me that after she raised her concerns directly, she was removed from the studio shortly afterward. Hearing this further confirmed my decision to speak up. When I raised my concerns about the repeated sexual comments and the physical contact, Leroy accused me of taking an apron from the studio and told me to pack up my things and leave. "Can you say deflection" LOL!!! About a week prior, I had told him I planned to have an apron copied by a seamstress, and he suggested making ten. I did take the apron to explore this, but ultimately decided not to proceed after being advised that it would not be practical or cost-effective. The apron was in my car and was immediately returned. I also developed concerns about cleanliness and health. The studio was consistently dusty, including in glazing areas. Cleanliness is critical in a ceramics studio, as many glaze materials and fine dust particles can be hazardous when inhaled over time. I later learned that prolonged exposure to silica dust can be dangerous and that proper safety practices, ventilation, and education are important. These were not explained to me during my time there. If you are considering spending your money here, I strongly recommend looking at other studios as well. While they may be more expensive, they may also offer a cleaner, healthier, and more professional environment. I am sharing this review based solely on my own experience and what I personally witnessed so others can decide whether this studio is right for them. I am much happier at my new studio, which is clean, professional, and an environment where I feel comfortable and respected.

I had a wonderful time painting and chatting here with my friends this past weekend. We came in during the evening time and stayed till a little past closing to finish our pieces, and Mark was absolutely amazing and so patient in helping us wrap up and clean up. I have been to other pottery painting places in the past, but this place by far has the best selection of items at a super reasonable price range. I found multiple items that I would've wanted to paint and take home. During the time there, Mark made sure that our group was well taken care of, understood the use of the brushes and tools, and shared fun stories and jokes while passing by us every once in a while. With the music in the background and the colorful walls surrounding you, this is a great space to channel your artistic talents and have a good time away from the hustle and bustle of life.
