FAQ's
How do I book an experience at your studio?
What is pottery painting?
Pottery painting is where you choose a bisque and paint it. After that, we glaze it and finish it off in our kiln. Then it’s yours to keep! Just to make sure we’re on the same page, you won’t be getting behind the pottery wheel during your visit – the bisque is already made. You’re in charge of the painting!
How much are the pottery items?
We ask you to ‘pay for what you paint’. This means you’ll pay for whichever bisque you choose from our selection of more than 300. All prices included paints, firing and VAT.
How do I pay?
You can pay for your booking over the phone or online. If you add extras on the day, we take cash or card in store.
