What to expect
Paint your own Pottery
The Splash of Colour shelves are filled with a fantastic choice of pottery for you to paint… whether it’s something functional or frivolous!
When you arrive we will run through the basics for you, let you choose your pottery and give you more detailed instructions about how to get the best results from your pottery painting. There are lots of different ways to approach painting your pottery and often the simplest ideas are the most successful. We have painted sample pieces to inspire you, stencils to help with your designs, shaped sponges and lots of other ideas to help you create your masterpiece.
When you have finished your pottery painting we will give you a receipt and your pieces will be ready to collect 10 days later after it has been dip-glazed and fired in one of our three kilns. Once firing is finished and the kiln is cool enough we check your pottery and wrap it up ready for you to collect.

Our studio fee is £3.50 per painter. You pay for the pottery you choose to paint in addition to the studio fee.
