My daughter and I went yesterday each painted very small pieces both about 3 inches in height and it was $45.99. That is ridiculous. They cited increasing overhead costs and labor costs. I understand that but it absolutely changes how often you can go. Just beware you will be spending a lot for very small pieces.

The girls working were helpful and patient even though we were there at a busy time. One of them (Ellie I believe) helped my daughter with a marbling technique for her mug. They also recommended a speciality paint that made my piece look amazing (and I'm not very artistic ). The price was comparable to other pottery painting shops we've been too. My Christmas tree was around 40 and my daughter made a giant mug for 30ish. They have smaller items too.

We had to figure it out ourselves as far as what to do first but we then saw in the table there are instructions. The manager/owner saw us and asked if we were pick up and we said no we are painting but then she never showed us what you do next. It was not the best customer service but we enjoyed painting here regardless. I complimented her on how much we liked it here. We will get our finished pottery in a few weeks. I'm excited! Thank you

They have a nice balance of leaving you be while also making sure they are available to help. You select a piece to paint and then grab some pint. They have a very organized set up- this place has been here forever. I even remember going 8+ years ago. You can see all the colors after they're done so you get a good idea. The supplies are organized and plentiful. After you paint your piece (make sure to do many coats) you leave it on the table and they fire it for you and let you know when to come back and pick it up. I really like that they have great spaces for everyone to sit and work. The music is good, there's food and coffee nearby and the tables are comfortable. Nobody rushes you. What a great way to spend a morning or afternoon. They also have other art I've never done but it looks awesome (ex-glasswork). And a kids pottery summer camp (cute). Oh and be sure to use your go local card- it's a great discount.
