WHAT TO EXPECT AND HOW IT WORKS :
Never been to our studio ? No worries ! It's so much fun and easy. We are here to guide you from start to finish!
- You pick it: Browse our shelves and find the piece(s) that speaks to you.
- You paint it: Select your colors and pattern/designs. We provide the glaze (paint), brushes, and materials to create your personal masterpiece. If you're not sure where to start with your design, we have several samples to inspire you, and multiple other resources such as sketch books, gallery photos etc. to help. Remember, the beauty of Color Me Mine is no experience is needed!
- You leave it: Once you have completed painting your piece, you'll leave it with us for final glazing and firing.
- You return to pick it up: Usually, between 3-5 days after your visit, we will text you that your piece(s) are ready for pick up. This is a courtesy text and customers are reminded that it is their responsibility to check back with us on completion. Unfortunately, due to lack of space, any pieces not picked up after 30 days will be donated.
There is no limit to your creativity. Enjoy, relax, be in your "zen" and find that inspiration within you!

COSTS/FEES:
- Studio time is $12 per painter plus the price of the piece you choose to paint/glaze (check out our weekday specials - depending on what day of the week, it can often save you half off your $12 paint fee!)
- Ceramic pieces vary in price, starting from $25 and up (the bulk of our pottery ranges between $28-$45 per piece)
- Check our calendar for discount days on studio fees Mondays through Fridays.
- For groups of 6 persons or more, we charge a 10% service charge. This is well below the industry norm (18-20%) and 100% goes to our employees.
