Hands to Art

We always come here at Christmas to make keepsakes for our out of town family. Everyone is so friendly, helpful and patient. Great memories in creation and product! Thank you!

I first came here for a girls night out to celebrate the birthday of a friend. After looking around in delight at all the finished samples decorating the store and perusing the huge selection of unglazed pottery pieces for nearly ten minutes, I finally decided to paint a cookie jar for my kitchen. With tons of glaze colors to choose from, it was hard to decide what to do, but no one rushed me, and I spent a lovely, relaxing hour and a half painting and chatting with friends. Since I hadn’t finished, I was able to leave the cookie jar there and come back to it later, at my convenience, to put on the last touches. A few days later, after the staff had fired it, I came back to pick it up. I ended up with a unique and one-​of-​a-​kind piece that brings my friends to mind every time I use it!
I’ve been back a couple of times – once for a kids birthday party and recently to make an adorable little owl box for my jewelry. The staff is friendly and helpful, and when they’re not needed, they work on their own projects, some of which join the store’s collection of sample pieces. There is music playing in the background, and you’re generally welcome to bring in your own drinks or snacks. The workroom has everything you need, and aside from the cost of the pottery itself, there is no charge for using the studio. It’s always a peaceful retreat, and I love filling my home with things I’ve made myself.
Give yourself a gift, and check it out!

The atmosphere is laid-​back and calm yet buzzing with creativity. This is a perfect place to enjoy some one-​on-​one time with your child and let the creative ideas flow. Everything is provided and included in the price of your ceramic piece plus our final project is ready in less than a week!

Best place for young kids (and older kids) to make a present for Mom on Mothers Day or any other special day. Very helpful and creative staff. Home run when presented to Mom.

I kinda love everything about this place. The idea that someone could go in, pick from a variety of ceramic cups, mugs, plates, bowls, soap dishes, or you name it, and use the many different paint colors and brushes, sit down at a table with no hourly charge, and just paint something. When you’re done painting, all you need to do is put your stuff way, and pay for the plate you painted on, then a few days later when it’s been through the oven, you come pick it up. The whole process of making specialized hand painted gifts couldn’t be made any easier.
I think it’s a great place if you want a unique gift for someone, or you want to creatively occupy time with your kids.
