    This was my first time painting a ceramic statue. I had a clear vision of what I wanted, and it…read moretook a while for the gnome ring tray to come in. I visited the studio frequently, as the employees took notice of my frequent visits and stated they would get the gnome ring tray again and to keep checking. When it finally came in, I purchased it because my husband could not find a piece that he wanted to paint that day. As we drew closer to Halloween, he finally found something to paint. The friendly employees gave us a big wheel bowl with examples of how to achieve different looks. To ensure a great, vibrant color, she instructed us to apply three coats of paint for maximum coverage. At each table, we were provided with water and a bucket of brushes. They also gave us a tray to pick out our colors. The tray consisted of three small, three medium, and one large main color for you to choose your colors. They will gladly provide more paint if needed. I knew I wanted a speckled hat for my gnome, but was disappointed they did not offer me a toothbrush to achieve the splatter look I was hoping for. My only real issue was the brushes. When painting, brushes are everything. The bristles easily came off and stuck to my ceramic piece. I had to carefully inspect my gnome and remove the fallen bristles to make sure they wouldn't be baked into the final product. Once we finished, we gave our pieces to the employees, who said it would take one to two weeks for them to be glazed. The studio also charges a $12 per person studio fee.

They vary in price from low to high, depending on size and intricate design. The hostess asks you which colors you would like and now it's up to you to perform your artwork. A fun 2 hours to spend with kids, grandkids or friends. Very organized and very helpful. Many colors to choose from and the ceramic pieces are plentiful.

    Color Me Mine is a fairly large chain of over 100 locations across the US. This one is located on…read morethe first floor of a mall in Bridgewater Township, New Jersey. The staff person greeted us promptly, and we found her to be friendly, patient and professional. She quickly set us up at a table. The children picked out their favorite ceramic (a truck and a koala bear) and we then headed over to the paints. You can select a handful of paint colors at a time which you squeeze onto a ceramic palate, and you can get refills or new colors as needed. We spent about an hour painting (the younger one a little less). Once completed the staff collects your work of art and two weeks later you can pick up your kiln fired and glazed masterpieces. There were quite a few ceramics to choose from. Adults might like this place too. Prices that I saw ranged from a low of around $10 to $50 and more depending on the size of the ceramic. We enjoyed our visit here and would be happy to return.

    We were a group of five at Color Me Mine. The studio is located inside the Bridgewater Mall…read more Here you pay for your choice of ceramic piece and then can use the full range of glaze colors while at the studio. Staff will give you a water bowl to wash your brushes. Once you're finished glazing, you leave your piece with them and they will call you when it's been glazed and ready for pick up. I enjoyed making my "Peepachu" for $17 plus studio time. It was a neat activity to do with friends. I would go back to this CMM again.

    I found Little Shop of Crafts while searching for a fun spot for my niece's sixth birthday, and it…read morewas a total hit! What really sealed the deal for me was the ability to paint and leave with your masterpiece on the very same day. It was super important for the kids to take home what they worked on; waiting a whole week for a pot to cure and dry is something we can save for a future birthday. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed. There were other kids happily making soap, and the woman who greeted us kindly explained that we could pick whatever we wanted to paint. Once we selected our items, we paid and were set up at a table with paints, brushes, and an apron. I'm so glad she made sure we knew the paint didn't wash out of clothes. Pro-tip: Even if you're not painting, wear the apron. Trust me, your shirt will thank you for this advice! The kids had an absolute blast. It was so interactive, and once they finished, they had blow dryer stations so we could dry the paint. The best part? They took the painted items to the back and made them all shiny! This place is a definite hit. And I hear it's fun even for adults with no kids in tow. Girls' night, anyone? Sign me up!

Fortunately, the number of stars that I had for each experience was five. The first time around I painted the Cinderella figure and my mother painted the pumpkin figure. The second time around we painted mugs. The two projects required two different types of paint. Unfortunately, the prices are kind of insane. The Cinderella figure was $49.99 plus tax, the pumpkin was $29.99 plus tax, and both mugs were $29.99 plus tax. Even though it was expensive I still had so much fun and everything I made came out looking great. Everything my mom made came out looking great. I can see myself coming back, and I can't wait to see what my pieces look like once they're out of the kiln.
