I brought my daughter and her friend to do some painting this weekend and was pleasantly surprised by The Painted Teacup. So many awesome things to say about the decor of this place! At the entrance of the store there is a colorful bike adorned with flowers that really draws the eye in. The window is decorated with hanging paint brushes and teacups, I absolutely loved the idea! There are several photo moments, one being paint falling from the sky and an umbrella that you can take the picture underneath. So inventive! The other is a photo op of a jail lineup where you can hold your sign with all the fun painted tea cup info. There were beautiful blue chairs for a sitting moment to the side and two fabulous Frida chairs flanking a table in the back. I found myself finding something interesting to look everywhere I looked, including a Bob Ross bobblehead at the register. Very well laid out and fabulously designed. I did think that the pottery selections were a bit overpriced compared to the other pottery painting places I have been to, but they did have some fun things to pick from. I painted a large coffee mug, my daughter painted a vase and her friend painted a plate. The amount of paint that they give you is pretty miniscule, I found myself multiple times needing a refill and the workers wanted to handle that themselves. They were very friendly and helpful but multiple times they were nowhere to be found and I was just sitting there waiting. One worker was sitting and painting with her mom and walking around painting something in her hand, so had her hands full. It was a beautiful spot and definitely a fun area with boba tea and restaurants right next door so you can make a fun day of it. There was no studio fee and the items will be glazed and fired, ready to pick up in a week. I will definitely be back with some girlfriends to paint in the future!

There are two bathrooms. One I read was decorated in a 'Friends' theme.  I visited the one with famous people pictured sipping tea.

My daughters and I were searching for a great place to spend a few hours to paint pottery. It's been quite a few years since we painted pottery so we were really looking forward to the day. Thank you to the reviews on Yelp, we found the best of the best at The Painted Teacup! It is independently owned and not a chain which was important to us. I sent an email to the business at 10pm requesting to reserve a spot for the following day. I wasn't expecting it to be answered until the next morning and to my surprise, I had a response shortly after sending it with a confirmation for the 3 of us. Walking into The Painted Teacup was magical and we knew if would be before we even stepped foot inside. The decorated bicycle in front of the business, the paintbrush art hanging in the window of the shop, the signage...we just knew it would be fabulous and it didn't disappoint! The creativeness of the decor is beyond amazing! I had to just stop and take it all in for a few minutes. Cayman and her mom have made an amazing space. It's eclectic, whimsical, beautiful and creative. Everywhere you look, there is something new to discover. Dallas, the resident 4-legged doggie hangs out in the corner in her princess bed and happily greets customers. Don't worry, if you are fearful of dogs, Cayman will leave her leashed. We are dog lovers and welcomed her to roam. Such a mellow and sweet dog, she made our day (you too Cayman!) Nothing better than pet and paint therapy all in one visit! The pottery selection was vast and there is something for everyone to paint. There are plenty of examples of painted pieces to look at if you have creative block. There are stickers and stencils to help with your painting if desired and plenty of paint colors to select from. In front of each paint color to choose from, there is a small child size teacup and saucer that is painted and fired so you know the outcome of that particular color. This was really helpful. Cayman provided all the instruction we needed to work on our projects. The tables are perfectly set for all the incoming artists. With brown paper 'placemats' to set your piece on, draw on or make notes, it was so much better than working on a paper towel! Napkins were also provided but the favorite part was the water for washing brushes off was in a big teapot. I love how the theme of this shop is carried through to details like this! The paint brushes were of good quality too. This is important! There are an abundance of stylus tools too for making any size dot/polka dot you need. Speaking of teacups...You will see them in pictures (check out the first bathroom) of various stars sipping tea, on a candelabra, and placed throughout the store. My pictures don't do it justice, you must go see for yourself. They do allow byob if you want to come paint and sip some wine. We opted for Boba Tea which was sold just a couple doors down. There is also a quaint coffee shop a few doors down that has coffee, tea, macaroons and other sweets and treats. You can bring anything you want to eat/drink to enjoy while painting. The prices are reasonable and the experience was perfect for my teen daughters and myself. We can't wait to return to pick up our masterpieces! My youngest had so much fun, she asked if we could return in a week or two so Cayman doesn't forget who we are. I love that so much! While you're there, don't forget to look up on top of the paint cabinet at the amazing dress form with the the painted 'prom' dress Cayman created! If I could give this shop and the experience 10 stars, I would!

Such a cute place! My boyfriend and I came here for date night and it was so much fun. We sat down to paint our pottery and the staff was so incredibly helpful! Offered us more paint if they saw we were running low and just overall very kind! After you're done with your piece, you hand it to one of the staff members and they take care of the rest! We were able to pick ours up in about 2 days and they came out so stinking cute! 10/10 would definitely recommend for couples looking for a cute date or for a small birthday party!

The selections are great! My family and I had a good time. We will definitely come back.

Great spot for a mommy daughter date! So fun painting and talking while being creative.

The painted teacup is such an amazing place to visit extremely unfortunate they are closing but if they ever open up another place I'm sure to visit!I already drove and hour and a half to get here today and this place is definitely worth the drive !!

A lot of fun. I definitely recommend making fun memories here. The staff is always friendly and the selection of things to paint is great. We've visited twice and are happy to make pottery painting a frequent activity.

Finished piece.

This was our first time painting at this studio. We made reservations and arrived ready to be creative. We received first class customer service and enjoyed family time painting. They went above and beyond. I enjoyed this better than some of the other pottery painting studios. I feel like we got more out of the experience at The Painted Teacup. Little touches like the lamps for each painter so you can pay attention to detail. Thank you again for the wonderful customer service!

How much is it per painter. And how much do your bowls and plates cost ? Like what's your lowest price range. And how long do they take to fire?

It was super easy to call and book everything over the phone. They took down my groupon voucher number and we selected the day to come. We received a warm welcome and told where to sit. Make Expression is a medium sized art studio with several tables surrounded by shelves full of owls, cups, bowls, dinosaurs, and anything else you can think of that can be painted. Imagine it and they have it! Kate was our instructor and she was super nice, encouraging, and helpful. I did not do the best job with my painting, but she told me that anything we do can be fixed--and she wasnt lying. Literally I made so many mistakes and I just painted right over it. A little bit of white and yellow paint really goes a long way. I am not sure if the wine messed up my painting skills or not--but, my painting turned out okay. I think I may hang it where no one can see it, but I am so glad that I tried anyway! My mom and my friend also had a great time and their paintings turned out amazing!! I definitely recommend Make Expression for families and childrens birthday parties. I love that you can bring in your own wine, but this is definitely a more family friendly place versus a girls night spot. It was still a great experience though!

Very little interaction with the kids or adults with instructions or even how to get your creation back. However the kids seemed to have an ok time not sure I would recommend for kids party, but maybe for other situations.

HORRIBLE! They've gotten me addicted to a new hobby ;)…read more Staff is very knowledgeable and even more friendly. I took a pottery painting class and have every intention of booking an actual pottery class in the near future. There was another class going on at the same time as mine and it looked so fun. The workers are so sweet and accommodating. My piece turned out amazing after they provided this beginner with much needed advice!

New hobby unlocked (!!!) I had some of the most fun,…read morerelaxing, and engaging time trying pottery with the wheel for the first time a few weeks ago as I celebrated my rotation around the sun. It was a marvelous experience from start to finish, and that's all thanks to the awesome instructor, Corrie, who was super patient and oh so helpful in lending a hand (literally) to give our projects the pep they needed if they were looking a bit sad. The projects started off in the third stage (after being wedged and centered) which was a very nice of them since I heard that the first steps are annoying and time-consuming. They do offer a 4-week pottery class that meets weekly where you get to learn all the stages from start to finish, which I will absolutely sign up for once I'm in the area more consistently. We were able to mold whatever container our hearts (or clay, really) desired. I came in wanting to make a chawan (matcha bowl) and I think the shape turned out much better than anticipated, but I'm afraid it'll shrink in the kiln, oof. Their glazing and firing process will take about 3 weeks after we make our piece, so I've yet to see the final product but will cross my fingers it'll be functional for my daily matcha routine. You get to choose which glaze from a variety of options, and they'll do that step for you. But in the intensive class, you get to paint and do more detailed work, and I got to see some of the finished pieces that were on display after finishing up my piece. It's super inspiring to see the variety of pieces you can make, and I'm already dreaming of other projects to embark on~ What's even better is this studio also offers more than pottery, including painting, dyeing fabrics, sewing, and crochet courses too, all of which I lovelovelove.
