The experience of painting the ceramics was a fun bonding activity for two teenage besties. The following weekend (7 days later), we returned to pick-up the two pieces, and only one was ready, so we have to return a second time to pick-up the second piece. A suggestion for customers is to call and check if your pieces are ready because they don't keep pieces that were painted at the same time together like you would expect since it's under the same order. You'll just be disappointed and inconvenienced read more

I knew I wanted to take my mom to a pottery class for her birthday & I thought for sure I'd be able to book it at the last hour. The only reason I was waiting to book it is because I was waiting to see if my family was going to make it into town to join us. Needless to say, y'all it is IMPOSSIBLE to book a pottery class in LA last minute. I was looking 2 weeks in advance and everything was completely booked. I figured I'd contact Temecula Clay to see if they could get us in a class even though they were fully booked online. I ended up calling 2x and both times they were SOOO helpful. Although the classes were all full they told me they could have someone come in and do a private class for myself, my mom and my husband. I thought this was so kind. Only downside was the private lesson was minimum 6 people. So even though it was just us three --I had to pay for 6 people. That kind of sucked but nonetheless I was grateful they were able ro accommodate. Bring a sweater because it is freezing cold inside! Lesson was awesome--our teacher was engaging, kind, patient and thorough in explaining what we would be doing. We went at a time when there was no one else in the studio so it was pretty quiet. It would have been cool if they had a little mood music in the background or something particularly since we were doing something so fun and lighthearted. It was just so quiet-- like let's party a little while we get our hands dirty! The service was great. The only reason I have decided to give them 4 stars is because we had to wash our own dishes. As a paying customer, I don't really care to do my own cleanup. I mean isn't that the purpose of going out?! Lol I'm excited to pick up our finished pieces But def recommend for a cute activity to do with your partner, girlfriends, or mom :) read more

Fantastic and very fun time learning ceramics. The location is beautiful the store is kept nice and clean and the staff friendly. Came here for family ceramics yesterday and for two hours, you will learn everything you need to know about making your perfect piece of art or in my case my beautiful small Ramen bowl The prices are reasonable and for the value it's truly worth it. Clay is extra at 1.00 a pound but trust me you only need a pound to begin with. Highly recommend this place for beginners and for the perfect date occasion. They have professional pottery wheels and a kiln for casting and glazing Great experience and more read more

We set up a private class for 6 people, but two of them ended up being sick. We were accommodated but still had to pay full price for the 6 people. The class lasted for two hours, and the time just flew by! As somebody that has never worked with ceramics before, it was a really fun learning experience. I made a lot of mistakes, but our instructor was really great about helping fix them and giving us some good tips. She was pretty patient about supporting us (we made a lot of mistakes!). Pulling the clay was definitely the hardest part! I'm regretting that I didn't take pictures since my hands were all dirty, but everyone in our party had a great time! I'm so excited to see our finished results in 3 weeks and will update with pictures then. The experience itself was already worth it to me. I definitely recommend this as a fun class to take - no matter the experience! read more

A fun, creative art workshop where you can pick from a variety of options from painting pottery to making candles to building your own garden pot. The prices are clearly written on the item and it's all inclusive (the item, all materials, and use of their facility) so no additional fees other than tax. Most items were between $20-35. The owner was friendly and welcoming. There's plenty of free parking in the large shared lot. You're allowed to bring your own drinks and food as well. We opted to make candles and it was really fun. You start with picking out your glassware, then cutting up the colored wax pieces you want to use and fill them in your glassware, then choosing which glitter color and scent you want. They pour hot wax to mold it all together and the candles ready to go within 15 mins. A great activity for all ages including adults. This would be a great option for any type of celebration, date night, hang out with friends, or spending time with your kids. There's something for everyone.

You walk in and the employee will give you a run down on the process. If you want to take your ceramic home the same day, you can use acrylic paint, if you don't mind waiting you can choose to glaze it and there is a $5 firing fee. We chose to do glaze and wait a 1-2 weeks and they texted us when it was ready. (Only took a week) In terms of inventory, they have cute Knick knack ceramics you can make or kitchenware like plates, bowls, coasters, etc. I also saw people painting canvases so you really do have a lot of options if you're looking for a fun craft day. Pro tip: do multiple layers if you're gonna do glaze. I'd recommend at least 3, but 4 or 5 if you have the time.

There are no bathrooms and you would need to walk over to use Target's. Mckenna was working the cafe when we came in. She's only one person but quite knowledgeable about the two paints offered - acrylic and glaze. Acrylic paint can be taken home same day. They apply a clear coat finishing spray and it will dry same day but may take a few hours. Anything with this paint would not be safe to eat/drink on if you get a plate/cup. Glaze will need 3 layers and would be an additional week to 2. When you paint it, it will look a bit chalkier but with the glaze, will turn shiny. There is a $5 firing fee. I believe this is okay to eat or drink after they glaze it. You could first choose which piece you want to paint, could be a cup/plate/dish or a figure. Pricing fluctuates depending on inventory. Ceramic pieces prices range from $15.99 to $50.00. They also offer canvas painting which prices range from $15.00 to $23.00. It's perfect to just paint and let your creative side come out. We enjoyed our time here painting. We also saw a few others come in either for date time or family time. One family was clever in that they had several kids, so they had each kid paint a teacup. If you don't finish or want to come back another time, you can always leave your piece with them and return to continue painting. You will need to pay though so they have your number on file to contact you (if you are getting it glazed) and also for you to resume your painting piece there. My girlfriend who was visiting, enjoyed our time here as we caught up talking and chatting while painting our shells. She had to do hers acrylic as she had to fly back to NY the next day. We ended up staying close to closing hours, so Mckenna helped do a quick spray - put it in a box for it to dry (due to the fumes) and let her take a picture of the spray to give it another layer when she went back. I did mine with glaze and got a text message it was ready a week and two days that it was ready for pick up. Very satisfied with our visit here and may come again.

Cute area with choices for bowls, plates, cups, etc. Acrylic paint is behind the counter.

Every corner exudes charm! I was happy to see that they sell Bridgewater Candles' Sweet Grace fragrant products. Please see my separate review on them. The Bridgewater Candle Company helps feed children around the world. This shop also carries the Farm House Fresh (FHF) skincare line. I love their sumptuous lotions! The interior is festively decorated for Christmas and chock full of a variety of unique gifts like jewelry and items for children. It is a little pricey but not over the top. I spoke with Kelly, who was working at the counter. She was so friendly, welcoming, and sweet and we chatted for a bit. She explained that they also have classes for crafts like jewelry making & candle making. It's something I'm interested in exploring further. She let me know that Angie owned the shop and there were challenges when the pandemic hit. I'm so heartbroken that so many small businesses were adversely impacted. I love supporting small businesses. Like I told Kelly small businesses are the backbone of the American economy. They have a prayer request wall. I submitted a request along with the myriad of requests already hanging. So much prayer needed in these times. I thought that is so cool & gracious on the shop owner's part. What a blessing! You can tell that children find the shop magical! They were awestruck by many of the items on display. Hearing their squeals of delight brought joy to my ears & warmth to my heart. It is a feast for the eyes. It's decorated so tastefully, it's organized, clean and bright. I couldn't help myself and made a few select purchases for gift giving. Don't take my word for it! Come & check it out for yourself! Please support this small business. I can't wait to return.

The service was amazing- they were so sweet and I asked about how long they have been there and she said 7 years, which I was amazed by- she said that they started as a workshop place and expanded their gift shop but they do still offer classes. We can't wait to go participate. Everything was adorable. It is a bit pricey, but I love supporting small local businesses, and can't wait to go back when I need special gifts or just something cute. If you're in the area go check them out. Absolutely happy to have found them.

The teachers, like Ms. Doona and Ms. Lauren, are beyond wonderful - they're patient and caring. The place is a kid's dream school. Not only do they have four playgrounds that keep things exciting, but the kids also get to ride ponies, brush goats, and pet piglets! They also have some sandpits. You might find your child's clothes a bit messy at pickup, but the joy and laughter on their faces are so worth it! What's really cool is the monthly photo thing they do. I was told that by the time your kiddo graduates, you get this adorable album of all their preschool memories. My kid loves this place. Sometimes she even wants to stay longer when I pick her up early.

Piglet, sometimes they let the piggy run in the playground. All the animals are kid friendly

Be aware- THEY DO NOT HAVE WEEKEND OR AFTER HOURS CARE LIKE THEY ADVERTISE. On your tour, note the green snot dripping out of every child's nose. Caretakers do not wipe noses, sanitize hands or sanitize the toys and surfaces in the room. Hand foot and mouth, lice, and respiratory infections are running rampant at this center due to poor sanitation standards. The building has been next to a lake for over twenty years and is likely riddled with mold. However, the holiday decorations seem to be of the most importance. You will often see your child's teacher scraping paint off the windows, rather than engaging with your child. Try and see past the glitz and glamour and watch for signs of neglect. Request without notice to watch your child's potential classroom, or current room, on the video cameras available to the staff only. They charge for Christmas and New Years weeks when they are closed. They close an average two days per month and charge you for them leaving you without care for your child. Other additional charges: Late payment fee, missed punch fee, late pickup fee, staff development days (tuition collected, school closed), activity fees, "donations" that are charged to your account for their tax deductions. Teachers arrive late, do not show up at all, or are called off to condense rooms together to save on payroll. Children are often not with "their" teacher and ratios exceed the legal limits. Employee cards and parent punches are later adjusted by staff to appear within the law. I was late to work a dozen times to work because there was not adequate care at drop off in the mornings. Just an empty room. I requested a credit on my child's account and was screamed at on speaker phone in the office at drop off by the owner Angelina Anton, far from an Angel, "no, and your family is no longer a fit for our center, you need to leave now". That's how they handled opportunities to improve, they remove them. If you're looking for a Christ centered Daycare, this is not it. They play Christian music and lie to your face. These folks are doing dark work. ..they advertise a ratio of 1:4 for toddlers and most days the ratio is 1:12 or more! Twelve toddlers for one person to feed, change diapers, supervise on a playground, and give individual attention to. Most teachers are there because they receive free or discounted care for their own children, who are prioritized whilst paying children are neglected. At both locations my child was neglected for an entire eight hour day, as an infant, and a toddler. No diaper change, no food, no water. The staff, including both Directors and assistant directors take zero accountability for their mistakes, because they don't want to be sued. The first week my infant was at this center, he was not strapped into his high chair and fell down three feet on to his head. I was not called, he was not taken to urgent care for possible brain bleed. Pediatrician confirmed he was injured, school changed their story multiple times to avoid accountability. This place is great if you don't care about your child's well-being. The adults who attended this center as a child twenty years ago, refuse to enroll their own children here. That speaks volumes.

They have park days or water play. Both of my daughters grew so much academically while at Miss Michelle's. She even gives a very detailed packet at the end of the "school year" before she starts her summer fun of all that the kids learned and their milestone!

Your care, patience, and genuine love for the kids do not go unnoticed. You each created such a meaningful bond with my children, and that connection is something every parent hopes for but doesn't always find. We transferred our son from another school, and the difference has been like night and day. He became more confident, happy, and excited to learn. Seeing that transformation reassured us we made the right decision. Now both of our sons attend this school, and it has been such a blessing. Our oldest is graduating TK this year, which is such a special milestone for our family. We've been part of this school since September 2024, and we truly appreciate the positive environment and support we've experienced throughout. Thank you for pouring into our children and making this season so meaningful for them - and for us as parents.
