Today I was their first customer of the day b/c I arrived before they opened up. Betty explained that they have been in business for 14 years. It is a laid back very friendly place to explore for unique one of kind products. They have stones, necklaces, mugs, and more. You can customize by adding stones to the necklaces. I bought a black stone keychain that the gif-tee loved. If you are in the area of Smoketown, come and check them out. To paraphrase her famous cousin, "y'all don't know nothing about Betty Blu Pottery!"

This review is for the paint your own pottery, located inside of Stoneware & Co. My friend and I…read morewanted to find something to do during the day on a Saturday. We decided painting pottery at Louisville Stoneware sounded fun. You get to pick a pottery piece off the rack, there was limited pottery availability due to the holiday holidays, but that didn't stop us! I chose a 9 inch plate and my friend picked a door hanger. The plate was $30 and door hanger $35. We were impressed by the selection of stamps and stencils. Everything we needed was avaliable to us. They had plenty of colors and paintbrushes. I can't wait to pick up our finished pieces. Tip, decide on a plan before arriving so you don't spend 45 mins like I did on Pinterest searching for ideas.

I got to see all aspects of the workshop, including the huge kilns and impressive stamping and hand-painting area. It was a very cool experience which I would recommend to anyone interested in the large-scale production of pottery. They even had a little section about the history of pottery in Louisville with some examples of historical pots, which I found super informative.

The glass needs a 12 hour cooling down process so you can either come back to pick up your item the next day or pay around $20 to ship it to you.

Overall great experience if you have never seen and learned about the process of glass blowing!

First, I didn't go in with the expectation of producing quality art to hang on my wall. I'm an…read moreartist, but painting isn't my first medium. I believe these type of events are more about the experience. They can be fun for a group event with family, friends or co-workers. CONS: It is in the basement, so there are no windows (if that is something that bothers you). The instructor talked too much (personal, not conversational), and would disappear unexpectedly at different times. She only came around a couple of times to offer tips and assistance, and seemed a bit impatient. The setup was a bit awkward from some viewpoints, as there are pillars in the middle of the room. They have monitors to assist, but it can still be hard to see what they're doing, and the "color chart" was impossible to see for most of us. It felt like we spent a lot of time mixing colors, and then quickly dabbing the paint on canvas to catch up with the instructor. We felt rushed. I believe the sessions are supposed to be 2.5 to 3 hours, but we were there about 2 hours at most. PROS: It's in the heart of downtown Jeff, near great restaurants and the Big 4 walking bridge, all in walking distance. There is a lot of free parking nearby as well. There were bright paintings all down the hallways, and in the large basement studio, which cheered up the space. It was neat and clean, and everything was easily accessible. The instructor was friendly and joked around with us some. She put on a playlist of music, which was her own choice of hits but she offered to put on something we would like if we wanted. We had a good time joking off and on while we tried to follow along. We all ended up with different results, and had fun being together and laughing at our mistakes. Overall, we had fun, but because that is what we brought into it. A big part of these experiences does lie with the instructor (or host you could say) and their skill at hospitality as well as art. I admit I wouldn't return if I knew the same instructor or someone similar was leading it. (She mentioned several times that she was the owner's daughter.) Opinions and experiences are subjective, so you should check it out for yourself.

Went to the new location in downtown Jeffersonville at 300 Spring Street for a 6 PM session on a…read moreSaturday for $36. This is my first time doing a "sip and paint" and I really enjoyed it and would repeat in the future. They have discounted session prices on Tuesdays. The new location has only been open for a week and would be a great idea for the holidays as a place to gather for a fun time or also as a gift idea for even the non-artist in your life. Plenty of free public parking located across the street as well as behind the building. Enter through the glass doors and travel down the stairs to a welcoming art space in the basement. The instructor greeted us and directed us to pick out our paints, protective aprons, and brushes and we chose our easel stations. They also sell wine and beer and snacks and frequent take breaks as needed during the evening to accommodate refreshment and stretching your legs after sitting for an hour. I chose a $6 glass of Cabernet and the entire paint session is typically 2-1/2 to 3 hours long. I also purchased a really cute t-shirt for $15, which supposedly can be custom ordered in various colors, sizes, and multiple designs. An inspiration picture is displayed at the front of the classroom and the instructor provides step-by-step instructions to replicate the image. Our instructor was Moira for this particular project, and she was very helpful in providing individual assistance as needed or requested. Her expertise was very helpful! As you can see from my impressionistic version of the original piece, art is in the eye of the beholder! I had fun, which was my main objective here.

They discount aging fruits, so there is opportunity to get food deals. Peaches are so good and you can buy by the basket or loose. There is an amazing freezer case filled near the register filled with homemade popsicle offering some great flavor options. They are a tad expensive at 3.00 a pop and worth ever penny. Then bring lots of items from spring to fall. Shop Local! They do not have a lots of garden pots, but maybe I was just late to shop for those. Really a nice spot to shop for flowers and produce.
