"Since I'm craving Jin tea (next door to this spot), let's go browse color me mine to see if there's anything I'd like to paint?" They charge a studio fee of $12 and then you pay for whatever the price amount of the ceramic you'd like to paint. My mug was about $24. I had my service pup Frida w/ me and they were super chill about it. The hack to this spot is to come on a weekday when it's dead for those who have that choice! I wasn't rushed and they came to check in on me regarding colors. I can't wait to see how it turned out as I was inpatient with myself towards the end xD

This place is so cute. I made the cutest little bowl ever and had such a fun time…read more The pricing is pretty reasonable. You pay a fixed amount for the paint, then for whichever item you choose to paint. They bring you the paint, paintbrushes, and will give you extra if you need it, which makes everything super easy. You can call ahead to make an appointment, but they also take walk-ins if they're not too busy. Overall, such a cute date idea or just a fun place to go if you want to do something different.

I loved this place! My daughter and I went to a similar place but I like this one much better…read more They have much more variety. Given there's no food here but the second floor of the mall has a great selection of quick food. My daughter made a water bottle with icing and some charms and I made a bear. I just didn't know that mine would take a week to dry I was joking about it but it was actually true. The girls who work here were very nice. I came on a Sunday to pick it up and the whole mall is packed so I might try to come in during the week. When I came in it was just my daughter and I. I definitely want to come back to make my own picture frame. Also the paint did dry up a little darker so I would go brighter

I would give this place a much higher rating but I was disappointed in the turn around time. The…read moreflyer and website both say 7-10 day return time. After painting the piece we were told it would be 20 days for pick up. We went in 16 days before Mother's Day, believing we would have sufficient time, only to be blind sided. They should update their website and the flyer they give you when you arrive. This is bad business! Had I known the turn around time was so long, I would have went to Color Me Mine. Update. The pottery came in 13 days rather than 20. Thank you! My rating is now

I had such a great experience at Bitter Root Pottery! This was my first pottery class, and I…read morecouldn't have asked for a better introduction. One of my favorite things was how small the class was. It honestly felt like I had booked a private lesson while only paying regular admission. The smaller class size made the experience feel much more personal and gave everyone plenty of individual attention. The instructor was incredibly patient, helpful, and encouraging throughout the entire class. She took the time to answer questions and make sure everyone felt comfortable, even as a beginner. Most of all, I had so much fun! The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, and I left feeling proud of what I made and excited to come back. I highly recommend Bitter Root Pottery to anyone interested in trying pottery for the first time or looking for a fun, creative experience.

It was such a fun class, and as first-timers to pottery, we felt like it was a great introduction. The instructors were helpful, and the whole process was really enjoyable. I'd definitely come back to make something new. Once you're done, they glaze your piece for you, and you'll have to come back a few weeks later to pick up the finished product.

Let's get into customer service - Lulu was absolutely amazing to my friend and I who are not experts or artists in the slightest. I really wanted to do zebra print and Lulu walked me through how to do it and made me feel super confident. I ended up running out of time having to leave, but queen lulu offered to finish it for me! I could have come back as well but of course preferred her to do it lol. Picking it up was a total breeze as well. I love my new cup which I'm using as a toothbrush holder. I absolutely will be coming back and showing more friends!!

Unfortunately, it didn't turn out to be a great experience. * No blank pottery to paint - Everything available already had printed designs on it. We were hoping to paint our own plates, cups, or bowls, but there were no plain pieces available. * Very limited selection - The inventory felt small. We were told a party of 20 was coming in, and it seemed like the blank items might have been saved for them. * Unhelpful service - When we asked about options, the staff didn't seem very helpful or friendly. * Pricing - There's a $10 studio fee per painter, and many of the stamped platters were around $42 more, which felt expensive for items that were already pre-designed. Since there was nothing blank to paint, we ended up leaving without doing the activity. We were hoping to try something different from Color Me Mine, but unfortunately this visit didn't work out for us. We're going to Color Me Mine.

Highly recommend!! I hosted a tea party for my 30th birthday at this venue and it went seamlessly…read more The tea sets on the table and the table cloths were all rented from the venue and they even set the tables before my booking time started. I was able to add my own decor and it comfortably fit my party of 36 ppl. They have all of the amenities we needed including a fridge, microwave, hot water, bathroom and large sink. The space is super cute, clean, and has convenient parking. The best part of the experience though was the helpfulness of the staff throughout the entire event. Sam was awesome and ready to jump in whenever we needed him but never overbearing. 10/10 recommend hosting at this venue

There is an adorable shop up front of perfectly curated fabrics, sewing accessories, projects, and small treasures while the mid area of the space opens into a creative shared table area. If you venture past the rainbow quilts all the way to the back you will find a treasure trove of Juki sewing machines, set to host a group of new to advanced sewers along with a large table area in the back for a variety of craft projects. My children are in 1st and 4th grade and enjoyed the 2 part Crochet class. When it was a bit difficult for my younger one, Debbie scaffolded the entire thing and made it possible for her to learn, feel successful, and feel like part of the group. We have also tried the finger knitting blanket class and now my 4th grader can make gorgeous blankets for friends and family. The sewing classes for 8+ are incredible. My eldest has loved going in to learn how to make tote bags, pillow cases, and a variety of other sewing projects. They also have camps, which we are eager to try someday. Most recently we hosted a very special birthday party here and I can share that it was incredible, lovely, and probably the most present I've ever been able to be at one of my kid's birthday parties, considering Debbie took on most of the labor! 11 children made pillows together, along with adorable rainbow keychains and they really had a blast. I was so impressed to see my little one sewing away on the machine with her dad next to her and the older kids jump right in. Many of them made 2-3 little pillows, even though they had never sewn before! Debbie's instruction is clear, easy to follow, and she has a great deal of patience while sharing how to create these masterpieces. It was really nice having mochi ice cream in the middle table area too- Debbie had everything needed for a party in case things were forgotten. The little fridge helped too! It was very reasonably priced and an unforgettable experience for the kids. We hope Meraki will be on this cute corner for many years to come!
