So happy one of my best friends introduced me to this place or I never would have found it. There are so many ceramic pieces to choose from ranging in size and price. Then when you finally pick the piece to your liking you get to choose the different paints you would like to use. There's instructions on each table too for beginners like myself. Finally you come back a few weeks later to pick up and pay for your piece. My boyfriend and I both gifted our pieces to our parents who seemed to really appreciate the effort we put into them. I cannot wait to go back when we have a home to decorate together! read more

Stopped by Fun Time Pottery with my grandkids since they were off from school, and it was a great experience. The staff was friendly and helpful, the selection of pottery pieces was impressive, and the prices were very reasonable. It was nice to have an activity we could enjoy together instead of sitting around the house on iPads all day. The kids had a blast painting, and it made for some really special quality time. We'll definitely be back. read more

It was fun, calming, easy and a lot of items to choose from. The staff is readily available to assist you when you need it.

We had a lovely time painting at Fun Time Pottery today! I came in knowing I wanted to paint a mug, and I was so pleased to find they had such a huge selection! Prices were reasonable considering they don't charge a studio fee and don't limit your time. The employees were so friendly and helpful. They explained every step to us and made sure we had everything we needed. The main painting area was very bright and neat, and the bathroom in the back was very clean as well. The parking lot up front was a huge plus and made for a convenient trip. Overall, very happy with our experience here and excited to pick up our finished pieces in 2 weeks! read more

Really beautiful choices to pick from. It's a wonderful time to sit back and paint, very relaxing. There are many colors to pick from as well. It takes about 11 days for our pottery to get shine/finished, so you have to pick it up when it's done. My only complaint really, is being commented on my age. Jan. 26, 2021. After we were close to done with our pieces, the lady, named V, was quite rude to me and my friend. First off, she talked to my friend directly, as if she assumed I did not know how to speak? She also referred to my friend as "mommy". Which was quite appalling because you don't assume a customer's age at all, regardless as an excuse as little as "oh because its hard to tell because of the mask". Second of all, she talked to me as if I was a child, I'm 21 years old. She explained to me that if the color is going to show, I should do more layers. I picked very pastel/light colors for a washed/soft look, I was satisfied with what I did already, but she still continued to push me. Taking note of this, I was instantly disappointed with the customer service. You never judge someone especially with age or make side comments like this. I understand masks can burr our interpretation, however, you have no right to call my friend "mommy" or me, a "14-year old" that can't speak for herself. I won't be coming back because I never want to feel this way again. But who knows, maybe she will be nicer to you than me. read more

Fun Time Pottery - my turtle - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

Pros: - A lot of pottery to choose from ~ cute figurines to cups and bowls - Nice employees that will walk you through how to paint your pottery to get the best results - A lot of colors to choose from - Lot of space and tables ~ makes you feel safe being indoors during COVID Cons: - Does take a long time (2 weeks) to get your finished pottery, but this is because it goes through an intensive process of coating and heating Overall: I remember painting pottery like this as a kid, so it was nice revisiting my childhood here. It's a great spot to come alone, with your friends/family or on a date with your S. read more

What a great time! It was my first time painting pottery, I love that there are so many things to choose from and the color options are endless to allow you to get really creative. This is definitely a hole in the wall kind of spot, spacious and chill. Caroline was also very helpful in explaining all our options my friends and I! They have a space in the back for privacy if you're going with a large group read more

It was a rainy holiday Monday and we decided to pop in for some indoor art fun. We were greeted and informed the cost of selected pottery would be the cost in addition to tax. Many of the items were priced at $18-$40. We chose a cupcake jewelry box priced at $25.00. There were many different items for the home and personal use. My daughter enjoyed selecting the different paint. I liked the metallic paint options. We spent 2 hours painting to ensure that we had 3 coats before the item is glazed. My only complaint here the price points for the small pottery and the dated appearance of the location. Otherwise this was a nice place to spend the afternoon with my daughter and friends. They host events here for children and paint and sips for adults. Children can also have birthday parties for as low as $260 for a group of 12. read more

It may look small outside , however it's big inside. Reasonably priced ; I will definitely return here again ! P.S Alyssa loves this place ! read more

We had such a great time in this place. Wide variety of selections to pick from and they don't charge a sitting fee. Booked this place in advanced for my daughter's 16th bday since she wanted to spend time with her friends. Of course we started with one headcount and ended up with a lower number. On top of that, we were running late due to rainstorm, traffic and holiday. Call them to let them know we were running late and they said no problem! The owner was so nice and her staff were so helpful and accommodating. We got there and they put us in a private room. They even had a bday message for my daughter on the chalkboard. They were so kind and really put a nice warm feeling to our heart, we were all so touched by the kind gesture. We took a long time to pick the pieces, and the girls just had a wonderful time. They keep checking in on us and making recommendations. Did not feel rushed at all. Amazing customer service, wonderful local business. Grateful for the kind owner and staff who made this extra special for my daughter. Just picked up all the pieces and they came out great! read more

Great place for a kids party. They ensured their safety and took great care of the kids. Highly recommend!

I came here with my mom and sister for a family activity. It is conveniently located on franklin ave and has a spacious parking lot. The staff was very nice and they have a great variety of pieces to paint. They have a lot of paint colors as well which is nice to let you be creative. They had affordable prices which was nice and it was nice experience. They also have events which people can bring their own bottle of wine and get creative. This place is a place that you must visit. However, they need a sign that is more visible. It was a little hard to find them. They are located in a small mall near La Bottega. read more

Nothing negative to say about this place! My best friends are I are almost 23 years old and we had a BLAST here! The workers are so sweet and helpful. We're going back next weekend! Only bad part is waiting a couple days till they "cook", but it's so worth the wait. read more

I've been looking for a pottery place for a long time and finally found something closer. The owner is super sweet and welcoming. I've checked other places out and the cup I did over here was doubled the price elsewhere. Plus this place has a lot of items to choose from. And another plus is that there is no studio fee if you decide to come back another time/day to finish your pottery. However, I do wish they had a built your own session in which we can use modeling clay to make our own creations. Apart from that, I love this place and have gone back a few times! Fun place for couples and family! Too be honest, fun for all occasion. I've seen a grow man come in with his mother! read more

Owner was so accommodating, caring and explained everything throughly to very talkative 5 year old and 6 year olds. They give a stamp card for discount after the tenth visit. Small cozy home like environment, getting the product back takes a while about 2 weeks but no sitting fee will come again. read more

I have been going to Fun Time Pottery for several years - Vee, the store owner, does a wonderful job of running her business - She is generous with her knowledge and time and her studio is one of my favorite "go-to" places when I want to do something creative - My family loves the pieces that I make for them and I love knowing the pieces will last a very long time - I especially like how she always goes out of her way to make sure children have an enjoyable visit - I find this form of art very therapeutic and it helps relieve a lot of stress during these difficult times read more

Vee the owner was so so hospitable! We had the place to ourselves! Clean, well stocked and Vee was super accommodating with my children! We go back in two weeks to pick up our pieces! Such a great hidden gem! read more

Good selection of paint and pottery items, however I really don't like their pick up policy. They get rid of your pottery after a month. Still a fun place to go if you need a custom gift or a relaxing activity. You only pay for the price of your item, not the time spent. This means you can keep coming back for free to finish up your piece. Other places usually charge for the piece, and by the hour. read more

We had my daughter's 7th birthday party at Fun Time Pottery and it was perfect. The staff, especially V, made the day so easy and fun. The adults relaxed while the children painted. When it was time for pizza and cake, everything was taken care of. When the projects were ready for pickup they were all individually bagged and labeled...all for a very reasonable price. It's a fabulous place to host a party!! read more

Very cute. Bigger than mud genius in bayside and doesn't charge a studio fee. Price point is about 20 and up for most items. Lots of options to paint and lots of colors and you bring your paint to your seat so you are in control of how much you use. All in all very nice place. read more

I love fun time pottery! It's a fun and different thing to do. It's a good way to celebrate, relax, or make a gift for someone. The prices are very affordable too for a pottery place. Love it. read more

We spent most amazing Christmas party at this please. Vee is the owner who is super helpful and accommodating every step of the way we needed her help. Even five stars are not enough that's how good this places providing every single fun possible. It was very relaxing time for 30 of us ladies for ugly sweater party. We never forget such a great experience. read more

Painted here a few times and will keep going back! Studio is so cute and very clean with plenty of painting room. Staff and owner are super friendly and extremely helpful. They offer a wide range of pieces including a lot of Disney pieces. Prices are pretty reasonable compared to other pottery painting studios. read more

I have painted here as both a walk in customer and been a part of a byob night, both super fun! I love this place, very clean and the staff is sincerely welcoming. The studio is always getting new pieces with a wide selection, their functional pieces are my favorite. Multiple platters, dishes, pitchers, martini glasses, cookie jars and such are always stocked up. It's nice painting something I will get to use also. The kids have a blast when we go and it's nice to see them clam and focused! BYOB nights are a great get away for a few hours with friends, I enjoy having the studio all to ourselves, just my group and I. Assistance when painting is always there and ready to help, you really don't have to be artistic. The many stamps stencils and tools that are available to customers help out so much. Children's birthday parties are held in the back party room so they do not disrupt the walk in customers when painting. What I have seen from the birthday parties while painting myself, is a lot of fun and happy children. This a unique fun activity for any one of all ages. It's also great for presents too and doing handprints i recommend this place to any one with children or any one who would like to paint themselves. The prices are way cheaper than other studios I have been to, plus the no studio fee is wonderful. I hope this review helped. read more

I have been bringing my kids here for the past year and a half and they just love it and all the activities that they offer. They have a huge selection of pieces and no studio fee or time limit. Everything is included in the price which is good so there are no hidden fees. The owner (Vee) I have to say is one of the most caring people I've every met and great with the kids. The storytime times and special events that she does there are really great for the kids too, she also offers ladies night out ( grab a few friends and go out for something different). I would highly recommend checking this place out. read more
