I interviewed for a postion as a teaching instructor with this studio and was really fristrated…read morewith the entire process. Here is what happened: One of the first interview questions that was asked was around kicking people out that didnt agree with their political opinions. Next, the white women discussed blood/moon rituals, and was scolded by the other owner to stop. It was unprofessional and did not highlight their dynamic in a positive light. I was then asked to teach someone who had never thrown before, the owner, which I wasnt Informed of, or I would have prepared. The expectation to teach a surprise lesson was incredibly inequitable and a horrible interview practice. The fact that she didnt know how to pull was shocking, as this is a basic technique in ceramics. She didnt inform me that this was a skill she needed to be taught. Unfortunately, all the owners now how to do is turn a kiln off and on. Everyone who purchases a peice is lucky that the glazes stick. I went home feeling pretty terrible about the experience. When I called to ask about the status of the position I was told that they chose someone with more experience and a degree. Y'all i have a masters degree in ceramics and have taught high school ceramics for 10 years. Linda then admitted she didnt really know why they went with another canidate and offered a sales position which i declined. Overall incredibly disrespectful, inequitable, and unprofessional.

Staff was so kind it made the time here so memorable. Highly recommend again and again.

We usually get…read morefood and coffee but we wanted to switch up our routine and do something cozy for the holiday season. We came in around 4pm, an hour until closing. This was enough time for her to finish a little dish and I completed a mini bowl. The owners are super sweet and walk you through the entire creative process. It's very organized and sanitary. They have everyone wash up before, choose their clay, and even pour the paints for you. Lots of people were coming in to pick up their creations. It takes about a week to finalize and you come back and pick up the final piece. Totally recommend for a fun date night or a cute get together. Located in Kent. Street parking available. No reservation needed.

The site also stated they do not need to inform the customer , "as my policies page covers substitutions" she stated. I don't have an issue with charcoal but I certainly would not purposely lay in a bath of it. I believe in honesty and the site is aware the product sent was incorrect but believes I am a liar and refused to refund my money. My last email from the site stated "But really I would never be in your position because I don't believe any of this happened, and you can't show evidence to the contrary, so you weren't in that position either. I genuinely hope you get help for...whatever has gone on in your life that has led you to this conversation." Nice customer service! I have never posted a bad review but I did today and to the BBB.

They have an array of bath bombs, wonderful lip balms, moisturizing soaps, and room scents. You could spend all day in here especially with the classes offered. I am grateful to have taken a informative and thorough class. It gave me a lot of generous options in how to make soap and what I can use and make in small batches. The teacher was so encouraging, and greatly took time and consideration in answering questions and offering the best feedback. She has a genuine love for her artisanal work and it mirrors in the way she treats her students. Thank you for such a wonderful representation of small businesses in Tacoma. I came in not knowing what to expect and leaving quite loved. Oh yeah, she shares a store with a vintage clothing store. It is so cool!

It's located in a very cute portable surrounded by other businesses, it reminds me of a little village. She painted me a planter pot and painted half of it in two colors so that I can switch the sides, so creative. We were there for almost 3.5 hrs, never felt rushed or anything like that. When you arrive, the staff will walk you through with the process and will ask that you pick out the pieces that you would like to paint. Then, when you're done, they will show you the process and off to painting you go! It takes about 2 weeks to get the pieces back, so if you're in a hurry, you might want to plan accordingly. They do not charge for studio fees like other places, the price is already incorporated into the pieces and I appreciate that. I would totally recommend this place.

My little sister and I love…read morecoming here to paint and chat, the vibes are so cute and I love the huge selection of items to paint. The last few times I've visited, I've painted small dishes and I love the cute variety of tiny plates they have available to paint. The unique shapes like strawberries and hearts are so cute and make for such a special experience. I love how easy it is to get set up with paints and clean up afterward. The signage can be a little confusing sometimes, but the employees are super helpful and kind with answering questions. The only down side is that during my most recent trip I was told I needed to wait two weeks for my piece to be fired. In the past and at other places I've only ever had to wait a week, but I love supporting a local place and I love that they have so much business.

The staff was friendly and helped us understand the process of picking out a piece and painting it. There are also instructions on the wall on the steps you need to take to decorate your piece and there are labels everywhere to make sure you know what you're doing. When you first walk in, you pick a piece of pottery out to decorate/paint. There are a ton of items to select from including bowls, mugs figurines, and plates. I picked a little bowl to paint and pulled up my Pinterest board for inspiration. I went to go pick out my colors and they all had swatches on them with 1-3 coats of paint to show you how it looks when fired. They also have precision tip paint bottles (in the same selection as the regular paint) for little details and stamps. They provide you with assortment of paint brushes, decorated pieces for inspiration and different foam applicators for ombre looks. They also give you ceramic palettes and a water mug to clean off your paintbrushes. After you're done with decorating, you clean up your items and put them in the correct compartments for the staff to wash. Then you pay and they tell you when you can pick it up (usually within a week). There was only one staff member when we were there, but she was super helpful and kind. As we left around 6 PM on Friday, it got very busy.

It's a pretty large area and appears to be wheel chair and stroller friendly.
