  Cleveland's #1 Pottery Studio
    Paint Your Own Pottery

                   3 steps to creation...

1. Pick the piece of pottery you want to paint.

We have over 150 shapes of pottery to choose from. We carry everything from plates, bowls, mugs, & platters to tissue box covers, toothbrush holders, soap dispensers, light switch covers, tiles, banks, boxes, figurines, holiday items; the list is too long to mention them all here. Prices range from $6 for a tile to $100 for a 18" platter.
Most pieces range between $15 - $25.

2. Plan your design using our design center.

We have ideas books, technique books, stencils, stamps, and a computer with clipart and images that can be printed out and traced right onto your piece. Use a pencil to plan your design; it will burn away in the firing! We also have samples all over the store with easy techniques that will help make anyone’s pottery a masterpiece.

3. Paint your  piece.

Now you’re ready to choose the  colors you’d like to use to paint your design. We have over 120 paints, pottery  glazes, and puffy paints to choose from. They are displayed on a board that will show what the color will look like after your piece is fired. Take the bottles of paint that you have chosen to your table and paint your piece however you’d like. Help yourself to more colors if you desire, there is no limit.

We take it from there. We dip your piece in a clear glaze and fire it in our kilns. Your piece will be ready in one week! Everything we use in our studio is non-toxic. When you pick up your piece, it is functional, dinnerware safe, and ready to use. You can put these items in the dishwasher and microwave, although like any pottery, it may last longer if you don’t.
