    My friend and I had such a fun experience at this pottery studio. It was a first time for both of us but honestly no experience is necessary. Leave the pressure at home and just have some fun. Alternatively, plan your design in advance. Don't worry about not knowing what to do to get started, the lovely ladies / guides are there to assist you in your pottery making and painting. After a few days weeks we received our email for pickup. We can't wait to return.

    Small little spot, Emma and sawyer was a great help. It was a total different experience, for a beginner it was fun. It's a bit costly, $100 for 2 hours then you have to pay extra for the glaze and painting. But if you go again it's $40 for 2 hours, $60 for 4 hours. Probably will try and go again. It's fun atleast once.

    Pasta bowl and coaster I made

    This was such an incredible experience. I booked a 12:00 session a week prior and received a text message with instructions to make a down payment and received a confirmation once completed. Upon arrival I went to the main desk to check in and was asked if I wanted to glaze my items for a total price of $120 or leave them as is. I chose to glaze my items in order to be able to safely eat from them later on. Keep in mind glazing will take a couple of weeks to complete after your item is made. My instructor An was the most sweetest and knowledgable person in his craft. We first began by choosing which item I wanted to make. He showed me samples from previous work and I chose to go with a pasta bowl. He instructed me to remove any jewelry/watch and I put on a apron and headed to the station. He began the coning process with the clay and showed me how to work the petal to increase and decrease speed while molding. Then it was hands on from there. I loved the calmness and techniques used to make the pasta bowl. Afterwards I was able to paint the bowl to my liking and with the extra clay I made a coaster. Overall this experience was 10/10. Easy booking and instructions upon arrival, great staff, and being able to get creative with your hands was the cherry on top. Will certainly return at another time.

    These are the things we made

    Took a class with Erin and Leah for mother's day. Was a great experience in the neighborhood. Erin and Leah were very helpful and gave individualized attention to all of us. Will definitely be back!

    I made this cup!

    Had a wonderful time here with my family! They're so informative and explain everything so that you can understand and get the result you want.

    My partner and I went for a class here this past weekend and it was fantastic! The class size is small which allows you to get personalized advice from the instructor. The instructors were super helpful and offered different techniques for doing things. Very happy with the class!

    I took my first pottery and paint class and had the best time! I learned a lot in one session, and cannot wait to come back. Maddy and Maria were such informative and fun teachers!

    See all

I love how they have such wide variety of items to choose form... the options were endless and all SO CUTE! The staff members are available to give you refills on your paint during your session and they are also willing to give you additional colors after your chosen 5. They also have tons of tools to use at your disposal (stencils, different types of brushes, hairdryers, etc).  Reservations are up to 2 hours, which I found to be on the shorter side (esp for a perfectionist like me!). My friends and I actually did not finish our pottery pieces during our first visit, but they were very accommodating and we were able to come back to finish our pieces a few weeks after.  Pieces are ready for pick up 1 week after you finish painting, which is a very quick turn around.

They have plenty of items to pick from and the prices are all on the pieces. The service is good and they bring you the paint you need. The worker reminded us right at the 2 hour mark that we had to finish up and leave, or that we could take our pieces to go and bring them back. We decided to just stop our pieces and leave them as is. We came back a few weeks later to pick up our finished pieces. Overall a fun spot that I've been to a few times, but definitely not affordable as a regular hobby.

That would have been fun! - I think some of the prices are affordable and some are not, I totally would pay $15 for a ring holder but I dont know If I would pay $48 for a bowl. So if you go keep in mind whats really worth it. - I believe is amazing how they allow the freedom to run wild for each person, but I would have appreciated more companionship from the "waitress" or at least for her to take a moment to guide us more, maybe there is a way where we can be guided over the phone with a video or something - I loved the space, it was all I thought it would be and is pretty spacious. Overall the experience was pretty good, I will be back and check out more of their menu!

Today, I did the watercolor activity and was handed a folder with multiple sized paper and some watercolor paint. I started painting right away. The workers are around to refill the paint/brushes/supplies when you're running low. I felt extremely attended to and I had such a good experience. I think that in the future, I might do the air dry clay activity as drawing/painting is not really my forte.

Now that I'm all settled I decided to try the Intro to Sewing class ($80: supplies included) here & I am SO glad I did!! Diana Rupp, the owner was absolutely amazing. She was so friendly and open! I showed up there with absolutely no knowledge of sewing or how to work a sewing machine. But if you come with interest and an excitement to learn, you'll enjoy it. She gave us hand outs with everything we needed to know, took us through all supplies for basic sewing, taught us the parts of the sewing machine and how to thread a sewing machine. I didn't even know there was a whole process even before beginning to use one?! Lol. She went at our pace, helped us each time we made a mistake, all while having a regular conversation. None of us ever felt left behind or stressed. I was beyond excited when the class was finished. I bought some supplies from her store and even Diana's sewing book (which I highly recommend if you're dedicated). I can't wait to practice on this new hobby and make it my own! They also have tons of other classes available if you want to learn other techniques. Already eyeing the next class I'll be taking: embroidery :)) Love love loved my experience!

If you're like me and had zero to no experience with sewing, this is the perfect class for you. She goes over threading step by step and gives you some great techniques and advice to take home with you so that you can practice. The classes are very small, so if you have questions, she's available. The two hours flew by. I left the class feeling very confident in what I learned (a little too confident, telling people I can take on those mofos on Project Runway!) I can't wait to take another class.
