How it works - from start to finish

The concept is simple – decorate a chosen piece of pottery. We then glaze and fire your ceramic in our studio kiln, ready for you to collect. Ceramic items are individually priced, starting at around £4.00  There is a studio fee of £5.00 per painter and this includes paint, glazing, firing and packaging for collection. Little or no glaze wastage on your palette may mean you get a discretionary discount on your studio fee when you come to pay - this is to encourage people to be mindful of how much glaze they need as not only is it very expensive, it is also not good environmentally to be wasting the product.  An additional studio fee may be payable if you return to finish items at a later date.

You can paint in the studio or at home.  For painting at home, please see our on-line shop.
