Once you’re done painting, leave your masterpiece with our staff. We’ll glaze and fire the pottery in our kiln – at a whopping 1828 degrees! – transforming it into a durable, food-safe, and vibrant ceramic piece. Your finished artwork will be ready for pick-up in about 10-14 days.
Can I paint at home?
Yes! We would happily wrap up a piece of your choice with our to-go kit option for only $12. You must use the provided paints if you wish to bring it back for firing.

All of our paints are non-toxic and water based. When your painted piece is glazed & fired, it becomes food-safe, top-rack dishwasher safe and microwave safe.
