My kids love this place! They did a camp here over the summer and had a great time painting fun pieces. The stencils make it easier for them and the end product is something that's actually presentable and of use! Camp times are from 10 to 2 pm, and they host regular paint sessions as well as birthday parties. read more

The Potter's House Studio - Beautiful, creative, and fun ideas - Paint-Your-Own Pottery Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I am so not artistic. Nevertheless, I still ended up creating a beautiful piece with the awesome & well planned execution for the talentless such as myself, courtesy of The Potter's House Studio! The shop itself is an adorable little gem, very comfortable, not overwhelming. Josie was amazing at explaining the process and was helpful throughout when we had questions (yes, even "dumb" ones). The Studio features simple, yet aesthetically pleasing pieces to choose from with a wonderful array of paints to choose from. THERE IS A DESIGN CENTER! This means you can choose from stencils of all sizes and patterns, stamp type devices to imprint designs, and best of all....a computer to search images that the studio will then image and re-size for you on the spot to have a custom stencil for your creation! I've tried painting my own wine glass, blah blah...hideous, but really I was in it for the experience. This studio raised the bar so much for me! I can make my own pieces that I will use on a daily basis that I just love... Headed back in a few weeks, I'm hooked! Who knew that this artless girl could be so...artsy? Potters House most certainly had my number- ADORE, LOVE, REVISIT. read more

First time doing anything like this and it was great. We looked through what was available. Didn't have a large selection at the time. The owner said she had just gotten a large amount of customers and will restock soon. The owner was really friendly, gave us tips and ideas what to do. What you pay for is based on the item you pick to paint. Once painted they will finished it off for you and you will pick it up on a later date. I painted a bowl and i honestly still use it often. I will have to back again and do another dish. I feel this is a great place for everyone of all ages. Big plus for kid friendly. read more

I went for a bridal shower & we had a nice time. Many options to choose from as far as items to paint. If you were struggling their was plenty of staff willing to help you out. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the restroom situation was terrible. I'd recommend using the restroom before you get there and praying you don't have to go while there. Apparently they're partnered with the plant place next door, & the bathroom is just down a dirty hallway in the back where it's super hot, the toilet hardly flushed and it smells like fertilizer. read more

A wonderful cozy place to express your creative side! You pay based on what piece you select, and there is a flat sitting fee to cover paint, supplies and firing in the kiln. This is wonderful, because some pottery places charge you by the hour, the one fee covers you all day if you so choose. It's a relaxing activity, and a warm friendly shop. It's perfect for unwinding or throwing a birthday party. Love, love, love this place. :) read more

This place is amazing. It's super neat and the owner in increasingly nice. She is very knowledgeable with an endless array of ways to help anyone create a gorgeous piece. I'll be back! read more

The Potter's House Studio - So excited to see this after it's glazed and fired. - Paint-Your-Own Pottery Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I came in with my cousins. We happened to drive by and I checked on yelp, so we decided to just stop in. Best three hours spent. I've been to other pottery places but The Potter's House was so cozy and an easy place to not only commit to. It wasn't crowded and Josie was so delightfully helpful. There were so many options to choose from with both the pottery and paint. It was honestly such a fun bonding family outing, where we would could chat when we want and go back painting. Definitely would recommend. read more

What a fun time!!! I called ahead (only a few hours) and Josie was amazing from the jump. Very accommodating and helpful! She was a delight to talk to and listen to once we were there and settled. The only difficult thing is having to choose what piece to paint! Other than that, everything was a piece of cake. We didn't feel rushed or anything. She had tons of beautiful colors to use and a million types of paint brushes. At the end, we had the urge to clean up and she insisted on leaving everything. I will absolutely be back and will bring more friends next time :) read more

I swung by here two weekends ago with my little because she had expressed an interest in arts and crafts. We had a great experience and Josie was so welcoming. It is a small pottery studio, but plenty of pottery pieces to choose from. Josie let me know that she often gets new shipments of pottery pieces and often switches them out. After we had picked out our pottery pieces, Josie kindly prepped our table and pottery pieces. The paint and supplies are self-serve. She also has some awesome and unique stencils if you're feeling fancy. I was able to pick up our pottery pieces a week later after they had been fired in the kiln. They turned out great! I would definitely recommend this studio to anyone in the vicinity. read more

This is a wonderful place! Over and above the fact that they don't charge an hourly fee, I like that it is a wonderfully social place. Josie (the owner), her staff, as well as her regular customers are so friendly! One thing that struck me is how many regulars she has, people evidently just keep coming back for more...add me to that list! Josie has a "Frequent Fire" program (LOL) for people that go there often, so she has created a warm place with many benefits available for its customers. Anywhere from discounts to great service and a great way to meet new people and enjoy the day! I'm going back again! read more

Most fun I've had in such a long time, many different choices of paint/materials.. owner was one of the nicest most genuine people I've ever met, no rush and great conversation. I think this is something everyone should try with friends, family or even alone/also makes the perfect date. They're definitely doing things right and the feeling of picking your piece up after it's done is amazing!! Thank you! read more

Had a blast! Great selection for all ages. Josie has the patience of a saint, as we had never done this before. Great quality time with your loved ones. read more

Josie was great! My wife and I decided to try this out and I'm very glad we did.

Josie has a warm, cozy shop and the atmosphere there was great. We will definitely be back. read more

My husband and I were celebrating eight years of marriage and have been doing the traditional gifts each year. Since this year was ceramics, I planned a date so we could paint some pottery together. I am so glad I found The Potter's House Studio! The owner greeted us warmly and helped get us started. I had never done anything like this before but she made it easy and fun. The place is quaint and the prices were reasonable. My husband and I really enjoyed making something together that we will have for years to come. I plan to come back with my daughter for a mommy daughter date. We truly had exceptional time and I highly recommend this place. read more

Josie and her studio are true gems! She was super helpful and made the experience so much fun. For some one who loves to be artistic but lacks the technical skill she made it super simple. Will be back soon!!! read more

This is a wonderful place to paint pottery. Small, quaint knowledgeable and friendly staff.

I took my 3 kids (under 4) along with my mom to help. They had high chairs which was really helpful! We made coffee mugs and Christmas ornaments for gifts. Josie (the owner) was so kind and fun! We had a great time and the pottery turned out great! Definitely will be back! read more

I constantly keep coming back. Mrs. Josie is an awesome teacher and a very gracious host.

I live by the studio and never noticed. Randomly noticed it and the next day decided to go in! So glad I did! It's such a great place! My cousins and I had so much fun. We ended up spending several hours there and had no issue with it! Josie is such a sweetheart! She makes the experience even better! I would recommend anyone come here. Great place for families or even just you and a friend. read more

This is a great place to spend a relaxing afternoon! There are so many options to paint. I have no artistic ability and Im really happy how my pieces turned out and had a lot of fun :) read more

What a great place. No artistic ability required. There is something for everyone. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. Miss Josie has lots of great techniques to share. We go almost every Saturday and have made lots of gifts and plenty of items for home too. Highly recommended! read more

Highly recommend! Best studio in Tampa. Josie is so nice, sweet and helpful!!!!!! Go see her!

The Potter's Studio is such a great experience for a family or group; we had a party of 5, and found it to be a very relaxing, chill environment. Josie and her team have such a warm, welcoming presence that you feel like you are in the comfort of old friends; they were very helpful, and accepting of different skill levels; they were very respectful and encouraging to everyone, which made for a very nice night out together. read more

I've been to a lot of pottery studios (more than I care to admit!), and Josie's is just fantastic. She is warm and kind, has fantastic products, and her prices are more than reasonable. I also really loved that we could come in with our own snacks, and sit for as long as she was open, working on our pieces. I can't tell you the dirty looks I've gotten from other places for doing the same (or the hourly bill I've managed to rack up!). I can't wait to paint more! read more

Best place ever for my daughter's bridal shower! We were a group of 23 and Josie's studio was perfect in every way. Josie and her assistant are wonderful! Upon entering the studio, most of our guests were at least a little bit anxious about their artistic abilities and at least a few were wishing my daughter had chosen a traditional shower instead of asking them to paint something. But Josie and her assistant quickly helped each and every one of us create something to be proud of. EVERYONE had fun! And the bride and groom got exactly what they wanted - gifts from the heart that remind them of special people in their lives.
