We scrambled for a last-minute change of plans, and it turned out to be absolutely perfect. They were incredibly accommodating: we hosted the birthday party right in the studio, decorated the space, brought our own food and non-alcoholic drinks, and set up a special designated area for the birthday girl and her friends. Laura and Bob were beyond patient and so helpful with the kids, guiding them every step of the way to make sure everything came out just right. The selection of pottery pieces is huge (overwhelming in the best way) and they even surprised us with a complimentary plate featuring all her friends' little fingerprints. What a thoughtful touch! It was such a fun, creative day, and everyone stayed nice and dry. Highly recommend for families, especially when plans go sideways.

(We painted the surf shack at Windnsea.) And It's really affordable - $35 includes everything. Paint, canvas, hors d'oeuvres... EVERYTHING! (Other places in the area aren't all inclusive.) It's a really fun night and something different to do in San Diego. For either a girls night out, date night, private party or group outing like we did, I highly recommend it!

After nearly two years of living through the COVID-19 Pandemania, our AAPI Resource Group really needed a way to connect and celebrate each other.

I love this place with my whole heart! I came here for the first time in about October 2023 for a…read moreFriday the 13th event they hosted and I have been coming back for events ever since. For the latest updates on events, follow their instagram @colormeminecovina! They have so many special events that cater to various interests and groups and ages and truly anyone can enjoy here. I came back for my 5th time on Valentine's Day with my boyfriend and we had the best time. We chose the 6:30p-8:30p slot, and paid $50 for the special event table reservation (included a couples caricature). I know they had a later Valentine's reservation slot from 9-11pm and those couples got a little heart shaped trinket tray as part of their $50 fee. The table reservation cost does NOT include the price of the pottery you choose. They have a wide selection of pottery pieces you can choose from at varying price points so everyone can find something they will love to paint during the time. They had a new astrology jar with a lid that i've never seen before and instantly fell in love. My partner needed a bit more time to choose a piece, and decided on a dragon wrapped around a tower that will include a tea light for later to light up the tower (super cool). The two pieces were less than $100 total ($36 for the jar and $54? for the tower dragon) which is around the price I was expecting to pay. Note that my boyfriend and I showed up at 6:15 to look at the pottery early and we were thankful we did because it gave us extra time to paint without feeling a super tight time crunch. The staff was super sweet and attentive and remembered me from past times I've been there, which makes me feel more comfortable and happy there. They were checking tables frequently and making sure paint was always available and refilled for our use. They also gave us time checks to let us know how much time we had left which was appreciated. It is important to remember that 1 coat will leave a lighter finish while 3 coats will create a more opaque finish. They had a card on the table that said more than 3 coats of paint can warp your piece during the drying process or even cause an explosion due to trapped air between paint layers so do be aware! You also have to leave your pottery for up to a week so it can fully dry and bake in the kiln so the glaze hardens and becomes all shiny and beautiful. I have been happy with every piece I have made at Color Me Mine Covina and I will definitely keep recommending it to those around me because it really is that fun and enjoyable of an experience.

My first time ever going and painting something at a Color Me Mine was in this location and also a…read morespecial night which was a Hello Kitty Dodger one. You pick any type of pottery that is pretty much a blank canvas. After that, you select which stencil you would like to put on. Then you paint on it. It's actually pretty relaxing and quite fun to do! Also, I think making a plate is useful since you get to use it daily! Since the night was Hello Kitty it was filled with a large selection of the Sanrio characters plus some of them wearing the Dodger hat. I picked a heart plate to decorate. You can pick whichever colors you want and then make it your own. You won't get the plate right away it will take a little while but I can't wait to see how it turns out!

I cohosted a private event with them to paint our dogs in a beach landscape and it turned out…read morepretty well! Their prices were very reasonable and they were very accommodating to our requests such as allowing our dogs in the studio while we paint. We communicated beforehand to organize the private event to make sure the date/time slot was open, security deposit was met, payment was collected fairly, and we agreed upon an example painting that I found online. They pre-sketched a generic version of our dog beforehand with the set up of supplies and they instruct and guide us through the painting process. They demonstrate and show us what colors to use. They basically guided us through how to get the basic foundation of our painting and then we have the chance to personalized and add more to our liking. Everyone painted the same concept of painting but all of the paintings turned out differently so that was neat! They come around and help you with your painting if you have any questions. They also kindly refill any paint colors you need more of as many times as you need. They also offered a complimentary glass of wine (rosé) to everyone as well. Everything was very chill and relaxed. It's an intimate setting with a capacity of 14 people. One guy instructed the painting process while the other guy served our wine and gave us some facts about Pomona. They were both very friendly! I think this is a good opportunity for people who have never painted to try things out and also a nice opportunity for more experienced painters to just play around. It's also a cool thing to do to hang out and be creative! Our time slot was from 10am-12:30pm but we ended up starting about 20 minutes late because they were still setting the supplies up and some people were running late and we finished around 1:40pm but they didn't even rush us to leave! They also cleaned everything up for us when we were done. My friend and I accidentally broke one of their wine glasses and they also didn't mind! Sorry and thank you for the hospitality! I'm actually going to cohost another event with them again in May cause I had so much fun! Free parking is available behind the building, on the street, or by the train tracks across the street.
