Pottery painting session
Book a table for up to four people using our online booking system.
Choose an item to paint from our extensive range: teapots to flower pots, princesses to sloths, money boxes to trinket boxes.
​
Take your time: each session lasts for two hours and if you still need more time you can come back on another day. We just ask for a small studio fee.
Pottery painting children's party
Choose from our £18 per child (without food) package or £25 per child (with party food) package.
Each child will choose one of our party animals to paint. We have of choice of over 40 animals and figurines, from sloths to jumbo jets, princesses to penguins.
Both options also include a party plate for the birthday child. Each of the party guests will do a fingerprint on the plate which we will turn into an animal. We can also include the birthday child’s name, hand-print and happy birthday message.
Parties for up to 12 children will be hosted in our special party room. A party without food will last for 1.5 hours and a party with food will be two hours. For larger party bookings, we can reserve the downstairs of the studio.
A member of staff will be on hand to help and supervise. Minimum numbers do apply to ensure you can secure your privacy for your child's special day!
Wine & Takeaway Nights
Join us for our famous 'Wine & Takeaway nights' on Fridays & Saturdays, from 6pm to 9pm. You bring the wine and we will provide the glasses! There is plenty of choice locally for a tasty takeaway. Then all you need to do is pick and pot and start painting.
​This event is only available to over 18s - we cannot accommodate children or babies.
​
Afternoon tea
Why not combine pottery painting with a classic afternoon tea? We serve a selection of finger sandwiches, accompanied by coleslaw, pickle and a salad garnish, a slice of cake and a scone with butter, jam and clotted cream. All washed down with a pot of Yorkshire tea (or a coffee).
​
Prices start from £18 per person, plus the cost of the pottery item you choose to paint. Children under 10 are £10.00.
​
Afternoon tea does need to be booked in advance and we ask for a deposit of £10 per person at the time of booking.
Takeaway kits and offsite events
If you would like the convenience of painting at home, holding a party at home or an offside event we can provide a complete takeaway kit for you. Choose the pots you would like to paint from our extensive range. We will supply you with the pots, paint brushes and all the materials needed to be able to paint your pots.
​
When you have finished painting simply bring the pots to us to be glazed and fired. Pots should be ready around one to two weeks later for collection. We will just ask for a small deposit for the materials as well as payment of the pots when you take them. The time limit to keep the takeaway kit is one week
​
For larger offsite events we would be happy to provide a member of staff to brief, help and support during your event.
