    Fun couple of hours with my college aged daughter. Did some ceramic painting and reminded us of her days as a youngster painting these ceramics for Mothers and Fathers day. Place is pretty large, lots of long tables, some round tables, plentybof chairs. AC was pumping and a fridge with cold water bottles by the door. One price pays for it all, ceramic, paints, glazing snd oven kiln and pick up a week later. Very organized, provided a paint palette that you can squeeze the paint onto for your work. Small bottles for fine work. Plenty of brushes, paper towels and water for the brushes. Little expensive for 3 pieces $62, but it was a nice outing. Some music playing, parents, kids, grandparents and birthday parties. Daughter pained a frog i painted a small plate and a horse to be attached to the plate. Good for the afternoon, but eith a full house of young children it could be a zoo in there.

    My niece painted the Easter plate and I painted the cat planter.

    If I could give this establishment 1,000 stars I would! This place has become a little safe haven and outlet to let out my nieces artistic side. I enjoy going to paint with friends and the staff are always so friendly! Especially Holly and Rob! There's always a great playlist playing and endless pieces of pottery to choose from. The price of the pottery includes the brushes, paint, art space and staff firing pottery in their kiln. If you prefer to paint at home they offer to go paint. I love that you can also bring in your own food/beverages. It can get a little busy/loud on the weekends but that just goes to show how popular this establishment is. If you prefer a quieter space to paint I'd recommend going during the week.

    Really cute spot Stuff is fired in about a week Organized peaceful place, nice for a friend date or with the kids. I'd definitely be coming back time and time again. Very satisfied with how much I enjoyed my experience

    finished mug!

    My friend took me to Pea Poddery as a birthday gift, and I loved it! I'm not necessarily the craftiest, so I was timid about choosing what piece I wanted to paint. You pay for the piece you want to paint, grab the paint from the wall of colors, paint, and relax. Simple. Good for groups and kids as well. Sure, you may get messy, but it's washable paint. I definitely enjoyed the feeling of not being rushed while I painted. The staff was also accommodating and friendly too. I'd definitely go back!

    Before all the magic/tragedy happened.

    Feeling crafty, but not so talented in that department? Let me introduce you to Pea Poddery. Came here after brunch with my boyfriend and it was so much fun! My last pottery experience was a 5th grade art project and let me tell you - complete and utter disaster. So much so that I abandoned the craft forever. But a part of me was ignited that day... but like on easy mode. So first off, you walk in and you'll choose one of the already made (pots? potteries?) pieces. They've got different types and sizes to choose from. Planters, plates, ornaments, whatever tchotchkes your heart desires. They charge you for the piece you pick and that's it. After you check out, they'll give you a little template thingy and then you get to work painting! When you grab your paint, make sure to look at the colors on the wall and those are the true colors once it dries. Once you've got your paints picked out, you'll squeeze some onto your template thingy and bring it back to your table. All the tables have got paintbrushes and a jar of water (not for drinking) already provided. Once you get to painting, the thing to keep in mind is to have at least 3 coats of paint, otherwise the color will show up lighter than it really is. I guess the only downside is that you won't get your magnificent work of art until 7-10 days later. I'm sure because it needs more processing like putting on the glaze and stuff to make it all glossyyyy. It was a ton of fun and we're excited to get our pieces back!

    Walk ins welcome

    What a cute place! On the main road, has its own parking lot (shared) and the girl working the counter was very nice. I went to a place like this in Worcester and I can day I liked their supply better but overall great prices and super simple concept. Pick an item to paint. Have fun painting! Come back and pick it up once it's gone in the kiln. Great for everyone! You don't have to be a painter to have fun and give it a go! Great date idea, great for kids and time with friends. Friday night... It was quiet when we started we had the place to ourselves but it livened up. One thing I liked better than the other place I went... They give you a glossy postcard to dab a few colors on. This way makes less waste and easier to manage your tool of the trade. I would say give it a shot!

    My son enjoying Pea Poddery!

    Really cool place!! I made a huge platter for my husband for Father's Day. It was $39 total and that included as much paint as I needed. I was happy to see there was a high chair there. I had brought my son with me because I was putting his footprints on the platter.

    My super cute owl mug!!

Nothing was set up special for our party. This left me wondering what exactly do they do for parties? The selection of items was lacking. Many items were down to their last one. The paint selection was vast and plentiful. The brushes in the tables only included one brush of each size. If you wanted to do small, detailed work and someone else had the small brush you were out of luck. The bathroom didn't have a light and you had to use a flashlight in order to see where you were going. You could still see how filthy it was though. Cobwebs and dirt filled the corners. I didn't want to touch anything. In fact, the whole place was filthy. No one wore masks except our party. *Covid protocols were not enforced at all.* Restaurants have stricter mask wearing policies then they do! They started cleaning up 30 minutes before closing and the lady working had a loud conversation with another person about how she would "be in trouble if she was even 5 minutes late" so that we would be able to hear her. She and another person kept coming to our table asking if we were done with our paints yet. We felt rushed and disrespected. The passive aggressive attitude wasn't necessary. We drove over two hours to come to this little business that doesn't take credit cards and treats people poorly. Edit: January 12, 2021 -We are definitely getting the run around. Finally was able to get through and was told to call back. Called back and was told "I don't know anything about that call back." Called back and was told must call back. Looks like they are keeping our pieces out of spite over review. Three stars now down to one. Edit: February 7, 2021- Spoke with Kim, the owner. We should be getting our pieces soon. They are going to the post office tomorrow. She had been unaware of Stacey's treatment of us and has apologized profusely. I believe her to be sincere and very genuine.

If that aspect of the business isn't specifically advertised, it can be a bit off putting for someone who doesn't know what they're walking into. Our biggest issue stems from that fact that this place took pictures of my children and put them on their social media. My wife reached out via chat on Instagram and was ignored. My wife called the business and talked directly to the owner and was met with indifference. She said that the Instagram account was ran.by someone else and she would reach out before pushing my wife off the phone. It was eventually removed and replaced, sarcastically, with a picture of my children with yellow smiley faces blocking them. The Instagram account also blocked my wife who only asked for the pictures to be removed. It wasn't until after this that we saw that she also posted pictures of our children to FACEBOOK and those weren't removed. We tried calling again, during business hours, and the phone was off. So I went there and spoke to her myself. I explained to her that putting images of children is against Rhode Island law. After making me wait, she got on her own phone and all of a sudden had access. She deleted the pictures and I went on my way. I don't recommend this place unless you're a religious zealot looking to spend the afternoon with an insufferable Karen who thinks breaking the law is ok because she's "always done it."

We grabbed the quick bite and then headed over. Place was kind of hard to find - it's on the backside of the "plaza" it is in and for some reason the GPS doesn't know how to get on the other side (or maybe it was just us) - but since we knew we were in the right area we drove around and found it. They offer a lot of different craft services - pottery painting, mosaic building, candle making, and other kid friendly activities. We opted for the pottery painting. They had a decent selection of pieces to pant - lot of bowl, plate, cup, jewelry holder, planter, etc. types that are functional. The pottery pieces themselves are a little on the pricey side but they do not have a studio fee like other places, so the cost is all inclusive. They have a lot of paint colors to choose from and it's kept pretty organized, so it's easy to find what you are looking for. At the paint station, they had a display of the colors painted three ways - one coat, two coats, and three plus coats and a number for each color. The bottles were numbered accordingly and they had another little color display below the spot for that number. This was VERY helpful! You use the little paint plates (I forget technical name) and can get as much as you need and want as many times as needed. All of the workers were very friendly, ready and prepared to answer any questions, and were happy to walk you through the process, setup, and instructions. They had several table setups all of which were prepared with various brushes and water bowls. There were a lot of other supplies available too. We had a great time. It wasn't extremely busy which was good - I can see this place filling up, but I will say they have a lot of space to accommodate. The turnaround time given was a week, so I will pick up my piece soon and add an after photo. I made a coffee mug and my friend made a display like plate/tray - can't wait to see the results! Would definitely consider going back here for more pottery painting!

    Staff here is very welcoming and friendly. Explained the process thoroughly…read more The setup is very similar to other pottery painting places I've been to. They even had pre-made paint palettes as an option. They also have some pottery pieces and things you can paint and take home the same day, but you can't eat from those items as they don't go thru the kiln. There wasn't a ton of variety in the pottery pieces to choose from, and the prices were a bit high compared to what I've seen in the past. We enjoyed our time. There were only two other parties there so it was very quiet and peaceful. Tip: if you use GPS for directions, it'll point you to the building across from theirs. They're right across from the Russian School. Their sign is a bit hidden. They do have a free parking lot.
