I took a class here a few months ago, and I have to say that this studio has the nicest people. It…read morereally is a friendly community that encourages you to explore your creative ideas. The instructors are wonderful and super great teachers. They are very attentive and will help you execute your pottery. The only reason I stopped going to the studio is that it is really hard to get to for me by public transportation but there is plenty of street parking if you have a car. The studio is more economical, and that's reflected in the price you pay for the class (less bougie than some other studios but wayyyyyy most cost-effective). They are also wonderful because they have a makeup class if you miss yours. Overall highly recommend! If you were interested though you should call or email to hold your spot - the waitlist is a few months.

At the behest of my friend, I finally decided to take pottery classes at Creative Claythings.

Much of their inventory is locally crafted, guaranteeing uniqueness and the ability to support local businesses! They even had a wooden crafted outline of the Chicago skyline to hang up on the wall - really unique and super cute! I think it's a spot to remember if you're looking for a locally sourced item. Prices were on the more expensive side in my opinion but you would be supporting a local business if you were to purchase. As other reviewers mentioned, we weren't directly greeted, but we didn't think it was a big deal - it was very spacious and it didn't look like anyone had any particular questions so I was grateful for the space to look around and browse!

When you're thinking about holiday gifting items, there's a great variety of decor, trinkets, and jewelry to consider. It can be a bit visually overwhelming to look at everything, but it's well organized by content so it's very doable. The staff I interacted with were very kind and pleasant given it was a busy weekend. Prices aren't terrible, but everything is expensive these days. Will definitely be interested to see what Inkling has in store throughout the year! I'll be back to see :)
