The sweetest little clay creation studio. I came here on a Thursday with a friend. 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.

My daughter and I went here after going to another paint spot in Renton. We wanted to check out…read morethis place since we heard so many good things about them, so we trekked our way to Issaquah. 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.

I love having a cute local paint your own pottery spot in Issaquah! 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.

They stated the Love…read morebomb had no color and once pictures were sent they stated "The product you received is attached - called LOVE BOMBS (as in the tick tick tick of), from an upcoming limited edition line, so I did not think that we'd shipped out yet." 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.

Tacoma's so blessed to have a soap, lotion, bath bomb making class like this establishment! Did my…read morefirst soap class last night and it was phenomenal! This place is my happy place. 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!

I paint pottery often, and Brush it Off Seattle truly stands out as a special experience. Most…read morestudios I've been to are in strip malls and they are busy, crowded, and you're lucky if you find a table. This one is different: set on a private property in a quiet neighborhood in South Seattle, it feels calm, personal, and connected. For those of us who live just south of the city, it's such a treat to have a space like this nearby. The event space itself is gorgeous, and perfect for groups. The owner took time to walk us through everything and even offered drinks (such a thoughtful touch). What really impressed me was the selection -- not just the usual imported pottery, but also pieces made by local artists. I chose a heart-shaped dish I'd never seen before, and it truly feels like I created something unique. Between the fun variety of pottery, multiple art mediums, easy parking, an on-site bathroom, and pricing that's better than the mall studios, this place is a gem. Highly recommend for both casual painters and anyone looking for a more elevated, memorable experience.

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.

You can immediately tell that the owner puts extra care and intention into everything she offers. I had the chance to talk with her about some of the pieces and materials, and I really appreciated that many of the options are local -- always a big plus in my book. One detail that really stood out to me (and that I learned sets this studio apart from others in the area) is that she also finishes the bottoms of the pieces. That extra attention ensures everything fires properly in the kiln and helps the pieces last longer. It's such a thoughtful touch that shows how much pride she takes in her work. I also loved that all services are included in the pricing, so there are no surprise fees later on. That alone made the experience feel relaxed and stress-free. The selection is fantastic -- from small knickknacks to decorative wall pieces, to dishes like plates and mugs. I genuinely think anyone could find something here that fits their style. And best of all, you're not rushed at all. You could honestly spend the whole day there and no one would mind. While we were there, another woman came in with pottery she hadn't finished from a previous session. She set up with her tablet and headphones and worked quietly for a couple of hours -- it was really cool to see that flexibility. If you don't finish in one visit, you can pack up and come back later, which I love. Turnaround time was also impressive. From when we submitted our pieces to when we got them back, it was only about a week or two at most -- much quicker than I expected. And the results were beautiful. I'm so happy with how everything turned out and can't wait to come back again for another occasion. Highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for a creative, welcoming, and thoughtfully run experience.
