We were able to make a reservation ahead of time and they had our table all set up when we arrived. The owner and one of the employees were so welcoming, and they gave us a quick overview of where to find everything. They have tons of pottery pieces to pick from and the prices of each piece are labeled on the shelf. You pick what you want to paint and away you go! They had tons of supplies - brushes, paints, stencils, stamps, etc. We had coffees from across the street and were able to bring those in. Music was great and just added to the overall experience. When you are done, you turn your pieces in for firing and they give you a pickup date for the finished product about 14 days out (currently). I am excited to see how our artwork turned out.

From the time we walked in until the time we left the new owner, Mackenzie was just a gem. She was there to help if we needed, but didn't over step. Offered suggestions on how to make our pieces better. There are a variety of options for DIY ranging in price from under $10 to $100ish. From what I understand the location has moved and the space is adorable! Modern and relaxing. We will definitely return in the future!

Since it was our first time, they explained everything to us. We ended up being there for over 5 hours, while the birthday girl painted her piece in great detail. What was really nice is that the staff left us alone, so there was no pressure to hurry up and leave. Everyone agreed it was fun, and we'd all do it again. It only took a few days for our pottery to be ready to pick up. Overall a great experience.

Unlimited paint and the staff helped both of us with templates for our designs. It wasn't too crowded and we went on an early Friday Evening. It was peaceful and I feel like this is something that I can do often! I highly recommend this for kids of all ages. I love that she was able to navigate a lot of the stuff independently because it gave her extra creative freedom not having to ask for help to get paint and figure out things that she wanted to add to her pieces. Here's my piece that she helped me with. It was $10. Unlimited paint and supplies to help get it it finished. They have a 4 day turn around period, but if you call the night before the pickup date.

I haven't been to a place like this since I was a kid, so I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I liked that in addition to lots of paint colors there other ways to enhance your item - stamps, tape, stencils, etc. The staff member gave just the right amount of help - she was always there to answer questions when we had them but also gave us plenty of freedom to play around with everything.
