1st and foremost, the girl (I mean girl) helping explained nothing that we understood. she spoke fast / talked as if we knew what she was talking about and would just walk away as we are still trying to understand. we made cut glass bowls and once a man came over and really helped us to understand what we were doing. the girl never told us half of the products available to us to use and left us asking ourselves questions. we had to fill out an index card with our information on it (i was guessing they would call us when ready) but never did. i just called the girl that answered the phone said yes its ready, never asked my name, never asked when I came in and stated we don't text or call anyone when the projects are ready. for what we spent ( I spent as it was my friends bday) was not even close to the service we were given and I will never go back there again and I will tell everyone I know my experience. read more

I love this place - really amazing spot to spend hours having fun (both adults and kids!). They have so many pieces to pick from, and prices are pretty reasonable. I've been twice and had a great time both instances. They are BYOB and have snacks available for purchase. I've never struggled to find a table, but it does get busy on the weekends! -1 star because -Unlike Color Me Mine, the employees bring you paint (up to 6 colors per person), and during busy hours, you have to wait for a while to get a refill/anything if needed -There is a color in the blue section that shows as a gorgeous blue (on the pencil holder you can see end-product colors on), but really turns out more purple post-fire. I think it's 54? I wouldn't have picked it for my mug the first time I went if I had known the color would change -I asked someone working if I could get something to draw really fine white lines. She gave me a squeeze bottle that came out really thick. I saw others bottle had a thin metal piece coming from the top, but she refused to let me use that because it was "too hard to take off" from another bottle. To me, it just felt like she didn't want to put in the effort to help me Overall, it's a lot of fun! The studio fee is $8 per person, but 2x a week they have deals to save on this. read more

Quiggly's is such a fun little place to spend a few hours with your kids and get some true quality time with them. It's fun to watch their artistic side bloom right in front of you, and it's great for your own inner artist to get a little stretch, too. I haven't been there when it's super busy, but the place can be understaffed when it's a full house so it does require a little patience. But if you do go when it's not crowded, it's a pretty smooth experience with the young staff. Even if you're a guy like me who isn't prone to arts and crafts I have no doubt this experience with your kids will leave an indelible effect. Especially because a week later you get to pick up your items and you have these super cute and cool things that will last a long, long time and always bring back the smile inducing memories! read more

I've been to this location quite a few times and have only had positive experiences. I've done the pottery wheel class a few time and have come other times to paint the pre-made pieces they have. The staff is always super helpful and will gladly make suggestions if you need tips on whatever project you're working on. Today, my friend and I were happily assisted by Ray and Melanie. They both made the process easy and fun and were so kind. I love Quiggly's and will continue being a repeat customer! read more

We were here for the pottery making lesson. I thought the whole thing was semi rushed - you would need to have some basic skills. When it comes to pick up, I think the process could use some improvement. Got a text saying the pieces were ready. When I arrived, nobody was at the front desk. Me and another customer stood waiting for over five minutes before we got acknowledged. The check out person then said my pieces weren't ready. I don't know where the disconnect is. read more

I went to the Clay House in Fort Worth and overall the experience itself was fun. However, the follow-up process was really disappointing. When completing the pieces, I was told they would text me when they were ready for pickup. I went at the beginning of July, and about two weeks later I received a text that my pieces were ready. I even called to confirm how long I had to pick them up and was reassured that I had 45 days. They also told me I'd receive another text a week before the pieces would be thrown out. Fast forward, I called today (still within the 45-day window) just to double-check, only to be told my pieces had already been thrown away. I explained that I had not received any warning text, and reminded them that I was told I had 45 days starting from when the pieces were ready on July 17. The staff then told me the 45 days actually started the day we made the pieces, which was confusing because they did not mention that prior and it had already taken them two weeks (instead of the one week they promised) to complete them. It's really unfortunate that there was such a lack of communication despite me following up multiple times. I ended up spending over $100 for two people, only to have our finished pieces thrown out without proper notice )): read more

I cannot express enough how much fun we had during our pottery wheel class!!! Our instructor was Shayla- she was super helpful and really patient with us. We signed up online 2 weeks ahead of time for our 6-7:30pm Adult Pottery class (there were 12 people total going at one time) You get to make 3 items and it was $48 a person. Overall I feel like it's worth the value you pay! So much fun!! The drying process takes 2 weeks and then you get to come back and paint your items if you want for $8. The shop itself is really cute and organized. There's tons of ready made pottery you can buy and paint as well. I definitely want to come back and sit a cute little table and paint. It's also pretty spacious with about 10-15 tables ready to be sat at and painted. Overall loved the experience! Best part is the store is BYOB !! Note: I would just make a note to call and check on your pottery items after 2 weeks. They are supposed to call and let you know when your items are ready.. but I never received a call- so I just called to check in after 2 weeks and they were ready. We went in and painted them and now we wait another week. Either way- I would just note not to rely on them calling you but rather you calling them after 2 weeks. read more

This is one of those places that I couldn't stop yapping about to my friends so I thought i'd brag about it on here too. This place has numerous crafting options for whatever you're in the mood for with reasonable pricing. My sister and I came in for the open clay sculpting. It was $7 for the clay day fee and it came with 1 lb of clay and all the tools to sculpt. Theres no time limit on being there as long as you finish before close and considering their lengthy hours we had no problem with that. It was nice being able to craft without feeling rushed :) When planning to go you can just do walk-ins unless you're wanting to use their pottery wheel which requires reservations. We were a bit new to clay sculpting so the employee that assisted us in getting started was very helpful. He briefly explained the different sculpting techniques to avoid any complications in the drying process and to ensure everything stays together. It's a pretty calm and quiet space, but there's enough light chatter in the background to not feel awkward and have a conversation with your group. As for the interior it definitely has character with the many art displays along the wall that are neat to look at for inspiration. The tables look like they've been through a lot, but I like it as it makes me not as afraid to make a little mess lol ;) It takes about 2 weeks to allow the pieces to dry and then put in the fire to set. When they're ready you'll get a call/text to come back in at your convenience to glaze them if you'd like to add some color to your art! Whether you're brand new to crafting or a seasoned artist Quigglys is a great place to bring your artistic visions to life! read more

They are an amazing place to craft and hangout! I have gone to the place twice, once was to make my own pottery. They charge $8 (adults studio fee) for 1lb of clay and provide tools to use! They also have a quick 1 week turn around when they fire the painting portion of the pottery! The second time I went I chose a mug off the wall to paint which was $22 + $8 studio fee= $30. In my opinion very worth a visit if you are looking for a fun day of crafts! Tip: Tuesdays are half off studio prices. Restrooms: fairly nice and clean. read more

I honestly have NO IDEA why this place has negative review. I took my boyfriend here for a wheel pottery class and our instructor was so helpful and kind. It was $100ish for the both of us and we came back to paint and glaze our pieces. It's such a warm and inviting place. The girls working there were attentive and everyone was super nice. Also very affordable! Ps: we spend almost 4 hours painting and spend $19 dollars for the both of us. read more

My husband and I went here on a Saturday night and got put on a wait list. I understand Saturdays are incredibly busy and we were willing to wait. We sat in the parking lot for over an hour (wait time was quoted 30 minutes) and when I finally called back, they told me they were no longer available for walk ins. That's fine, I completely understand that, however you could've called me instead of having me wait in your lot an hour until you closed so I could come back another time and go about my evening. I used to come here all the time as a kid and wanted to have a fun date night with my husband and share the experience with him. Was really disappointed this was the outcome. read more

Great place to take the kids when it is hot outside. My kids loved all the options, you could paint, sculpt or mold.

Such a great concept and honestly a great price. Would come back.... If the entire staff was replaced. The girls constantly go to the back, which is fine, but someone needs to be on the floor. Color me mine you're able to refill colors yourself, not here. And that is fine, if there is someone available to refill colors. The manager is lazy and rude. He sits on his phone. We received a text our order was ready and when arrived it was not. Which is fine, if it wasn't an hour drive. Overall service is bad. Do not waste your money here. read more

I came here with a friend and had a fun time painting our pieces. I was so excited to see how they would come out and unfortunately not sure what happened after we left out pieces on the table as we're told to do so. My plate ended up with a small purple dot in the middle which ruined my whole piece. Also the finish left some bubble which i don't think is supposed to happen if fired properly. They have good customer service but I wish my finish product would of turned out better. read more

This place does not care! Our family of 5 both casted and painted pottery. They will tell you when you complain that their 45 day pickup policy is printed on the receipt and hung in the store, but nothing verbal. No phone call warning, nothing. They simply don't care. Someday their policies will catch up with them, but for now we are left heartbroken we missed the store trashing our art by missing the deadline by 5 days. We will never go back, but again they don't care. Buyer beware! read more

This place came highly recommended while we were on a trip in July. We paid for 5 people to paint various items. Asked if they could be shipped and was told yes. End of August I called to ask about our items and was told they would be shipped out. Now here it is October and still no shipment, text or even a phone call. Theft of hundreds at this point. What a disappointment for our family but especially our kids! read more

We like this place and hate to leave a non-stellar review but I also really wanted to let people know to temper their expectations. If you are looking for a place to just paint some pottery or play with clay and don't care if you see the end result or not, this is a great place! The staff are friendly and there are lots of options to paint. But we've been on two separate occasions and ran into issues with pickup both times. The first time, when I came to pick up, I already saw my vase in the cart right behind the desk. So I told them my name and number. They looked me up and said my pieces weren't ready yet so I let them know that I actually see it on the cart. So they give me my vase and another mermaid piece that belonged to my daughter. The problem was, it was not my daughter's piece! She had painted a different piece. I let them know and they seemed super confused and told me to come back because maybe hers wasn't ready yet. I come back a week later and they were able to find it! Hooray! I was just so glad my 5 year old daughter recognized that it was not her mermaid, otherwise, we would have also ruined another girl's day by taking her piece. Whatever system they are using to tag and check in pieces probably needs to be re-evaluated. Also, the vase I painted had tiny holes in the bottom that they poked so it can't even hold any water since it keeps leaking. They said they poked the holes so it can bake without exploding. Which makes sense but literally no other vase in stores have holes at the bottom? I asked if there was any way we could seal it and they were like, "probably not, maybe you should just put some dirt in there." This is for a vase--not a planter! So don't get things if you plan on actually using them beyond decoration. Another time, we had the kids make something for a grandma's birthday. Her birthday was 8 days away so we paid extra for each piece to be rushed since they say it takes at least 10 days. I called on days 6, 7, and 8 and nope--not ready yet. Each time, they said it was going to be next to go in the kiln and they would text me later that day when it was ready. Not surprisingly, I never got a text and ended up having to give it to her late. No apologies, no refund on the rush fee. All of these interactions left a bad taste in my mouth so while we love the idea and the actual painting was very fun, we will probably try to find somewhere else to paint some pottery. It is way too expensive to risk not getting your pieces back! read more

I went here to do a glass fusion and once I was done with it I was told they hadn't had many glass fusions and it should be done the next day around the afternoon. I call the next day in the afternoon after hearing no news and get told they forgot to put it in but it should be done the next day. The next day rolls around and I'm in the area so I call for an update. I'm then told by an associate that they haven't had any glass fusions done since October, even though mine was done in November, and that she could not tell me when my piece would be ready. At this point I'm worried but decide to give it some time. I call later on and I'm told it will be ready the next day once again. I receive no call the next day but decided to wait one more day. Today I could not get anyone to answer the phone so I went up there myself just to be told that it was completed yesterday but I hadn't revived a call or text telling me it was complete. When they handed me my piece it looked nothing like what I had left with them. Pieces were missing, some had fallen off, and multiple pieces of glass were slid out of place. I wouldn't trust this place with your glass fusions. read more

This is the best place to play, create, enjoy the atmosphere of everyone having fun all around. I have had many projects created and finished here and I can't say enough good things about the amazing staff! read more

Quiggly's Clayhouse - This is a tray I made, glazed and then they fired for me ! - Paint-Your-Own Pottery Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I went here with a group today and we had a blast. We did clay throwing on the wheels and we got to make 3 pieces. I thought it was a great amount of pieces for the price. Based on some reviews here though, I'm a little nervous about getting our pieces, as I pray they don't get thrown out or anything. Our instructor Cheyenne was wonderful. Update: we picked up our pieces and so many were cracked or broken because over 20 pieces were stuffed in one paper bag. Yikes. read more

Very enjoyable experience with the make your own pottery class; I have not found any other in the area, however, coming back two weeks later to paint our creations was slightly frustrating. It was very busy on the weekend, lots of children and noise made it hard to focus. This led to slower service and worst of all they ran out of the color black! Also, the check out process needs some improvement. Overall, we were happy with the prices and had fun doing it! read more

Booked a class for Saturday afternoon. There was about 10 people in our class total, but the instructor was attentive and good about going around to help people. In my research, I found Quiggly's to be the most worth it as they allow you to make 3 items for about $55. Once its ready for pick up, you can paint it for an additional $8, not bad. The class was fun even for a beginner like me. Highly recommend Quiggly's. if you have been thinking about trying pottery! read more

So cute to do the down and dirty adult pottery night! Enjoyed the instructor and getting to complete 4 pieces. Nice relaxing night out.

Let me first start with saying please do not base your decision on coming here on some of those not so nice reviews. My friend had her daughter's bday party here and it was so, so awesome! Such a cute place with so many different options. All the kids had such an amazing experience. Everyone that we came in to contact with was very nice and helpful.

Had a great time at the class. When we went to check out, I clearly asked the front desk when we will know if it's ready. They said they will call or text us and then we can come back in to paint it. I never received a call or text. I tried calling multiple times as well and no one answered. Eventually when I got ahold of someone, they said they threw out our pottery. A huge waste of over $100. Incredibly disappointing. I asked if they could do anything to make it right and they kept saying the manager would give me a call. They never did reached out. read more

Worst service I've ever had. The front desk lady was not nice at all and I've texted questions twice like they ask you to do on their voicemail and they're overall very short and rude. I was double checking when my pottery would be ready via text since they never told me when I was in on a Friday and was told via text "7 days"... so I replied and said "okay, so if I came in tomorrow (the following Friday), they would be ready?" and the response was "7 literal days". Thank you so much for your sass and help lol. They replied later and confirmed that my pieces were ready which I did appreciate. Haven't even mentioned yet that they are severely understaffed and when I got there with a friend we were told to just sit wherever. We assumed someone would come to us since we were given no instruction and after about 10 minutes of not being helped we asked the table next to us what to do and they instructed us to get papers from the back to fill out (would've been nice to know when we arrived). Because they were so understaffed it took us 53 MINUTES from that point to even get paint to start!! We were appalled and almost left. It was about 9pm by this point and we told the front desk lady, "hey, we've been here for almost an hour and don't have paints, we may not have time to finish" and her response was "we won't kick you out right at 10". Okay? That's great and all but no apologies for the wait or rude service. The only upside so far is that the pieces seemed good and I'm excited to see how they turn out. But I will never go back. I will always go to color me mine in Plano from now on. read more

I would give it zero star if I could I walked in with my 3 and 5 years the girl sit us down ask us to choose color , and she left for 30 mins without any words , hanging us there and give class to the people who come in after us doesn't seem even want to come to bring the color we selected I don't know what do I supposed to do sitting there waiting with 2 little ones and she is right next table doesn't even want to come to our table She didn't say we need to wait for her to finish the other table or wait a sec or anything When we decided to leave she said bye , so she never wanted to take our business why she sit us there for 30 mins and ask us to choose color ???
