The customer service was lacking. We arrived and stood at the desk. After several minutes, someone…read morefinally decided they should help us and told us to write down the pottery. We plan to paint and that they would set us up. So we walked around, I had not been to paint pottery in about eight years so you could consider me a novice. We found the pieces that we wanted and waited for further instruction. 15 minutes later someone finally decided they should help us again. This is after we stood at the counter, waiting to pay for our item and point out the item that we wanted to paint. At that time we learned we were supposed to pick up the item go sit at a table, and the utensils would be brought to us. We grabbed our items and sat at the table where we had water in a jar and two sponges and a laminated paper with instructions. We then went to pick the paint brushes we thought would fit our project and were told that we needed to select our own paints. No instruction on how to select the paint, luckily my sister, who is with me, helped me figure out what to grab, and how much I could grab. With what I painted, I required more paint, but the three women were so enthralled in a conversation with a gentleman at the counter, they did not come check on us to see what we needed. I finally said loudly excuse me can I get some help and someone came over. This young girl came over and offered to bring me more paint after I explained. I ran out of paint and did not know what to do with the empty paint container because none of it was explained to me and my sister decided to go get me more paint. After the young girl walked away I heard her say this is not my job. Terrible customer service! Also, no one explained to me the process of the painting, again novice at this, and I wasn't sure if I cleaned my brush on the sponges or use the water. When we were finally done with our paintings, we sat wondering what to do next. My sister decided she would stay at the table in case we did not need to bring our painted work to the front and I went to the front counter to let them know we were done. The woman said you were supposed to bring it up to the counter and pay for it now. Thanks for more instruction that you never gave, but apparently I was supposed to know. This was a terrible experience. If I could give zero stars, that's probably what I would give.

My best friend and I had a super time. Learned everything I needed to know but had so much fun in the process. All the equipment was in great working order they had everything we needed.

Next time maybe I'll do a little fusing.

I called and spoke to the owner about signing up for a ornament class. She explained the class and told me I could pay upon arrival. They all made me feel really welcome during the class. I signed in and picked out 3 pre cut ornaments to decorate for the evening. There were plenty precut glass choices for everyone to pick from. I've never seen so many glass choices in my life, it was truly a learning an amazing experience. I cut my glass and decorated my ornaments for approximately 1.5hrs. Time flew by very quickly. The class atmosphere was really therapeutic and relaxing. I highly recommend this class, they take reservations for parties and drops in sessions. The owner is very kind and appreciative of her customers. Great way to learn a new hobby thru out the yr. I will be taking another class in the near future.
