While I have brought my grandchildren and children to Hands on Pottery many times to make special gifts this time I needed something out of the ordinary. My goal was to getcake toppers made - special custom pieces for the top of a birthday cake. Jim Davis, the owner had 2 wonderful and creative pieces specially fabricated. Then he had them decorated and they were just beautiful. The nicest and most talented people work there. Thank you Jim for going above and beyond.

I live an hour and a half from the studio where my granddaughter and I painted together. Our projects are ready to be picked up, and I’ve been trying to find 3 hours to come get them.Alyssa to the rescue! My daughter offered to pick them up but since they’re Christmas gifts, my granddaughter, who is 7, was pretty upset that her mom would see her gift.They could have wrapped everything in newsprint, tossed it in a box and said see ya later (which constitutes customer service at so many places). Instead, the two Christmas gifts will be in gift bags with tissue and ribbon and they can just put them under the tree!Do the world a favor and start another business teaching retail companies how to treat their customers!We won’t ever paint anywhere else, it’s worth the drive!

We enjoyed a rainy afternoon at Hands On Pottery! It’s an adorable establishment with very friendly and helpful staff! The kids really enjoyed the quiet, creative time and were so proud to make their dad a few Father’s Day gifts! Can’t wait to see the finished product!

Arrived one hour before closing for a small project. Staff initially informed me they closed promptly at 6PM to which I responded I understood. They proceeded to inform me that I could take the artwork with me and return another day. Once I proceeded to pick my artwork I was informed by an older staff member once again that they close at 6PM promptly. She further stated that an adult takes one hour to paint and that we would not have enough time to finish our artwork even though we had an hour left before closing. Both my friend and I no longer felt welcomed to the location and left. The manner in which staff handled our arrival was discouraging to ever trying the experience.

experience was good, employees were nice, and they have a really good color and pottery selection. However, it is a small space so it feels kind of crowded, and when i picked up my piece it came back chipped.

This is a great spot for some family fun or for a girls night out! I came here with a couple of girlfriends and we were so impressed with Hands On Pottery! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and we had so much fun picking out a piece and bringing it to life-- there was no rush, and we had a very helpful group of ladies working there to help guide us!

I'm glad I found this place. I'm in a mission to start my own dinnerware. This was a good choice to start. The space is clean. Grace was very helpful . There are a good selection of ceramic items to paint . This is a good space if you want to be creative and paint. I will definitely return when it's time for me to begin the process .

My husband and I went today with our 1.5 y/o daughter. We haven’t done much during covid and have been very cautious. We are both vaccinated and thought this would be a nice safe thing to do for Mother’s Day gifts judging by the fact they had reservations and the pictures online showed dividers. It did not disappoint. We were in there with one other family and Jim the owner could not have been more pleasant. He set us up in a back corner table and got us our paint helped us get set up. It was perfect. We felt safe and loved at the same time. He was so patient even with our restless 1 year old. He even kindly helped us put her handprint on all of our items and did it flawlessly. I cannot say enough good things about this place and Jim! It was wonderful. Thanks again!

We chose Hands on Pottery to celebrate an adult and teenage birthday. The 8 of us had an awesome time! Jim and Team were very attentive. We all enjoyed every second at Hands on Pottery! It was a relaxing experience and brought out the artistic genius in all of us. We are planning our next visit. A big thank you to Jim for assisting us in creating wonderful birthday memories.

A friend and I went this past week and unfortunately read the appointment time wrong, but they were super understanding and accommodating! We felt so bad but they were super sweet about it! We had a blast painting pottery and it felt safe and clean. They had sanitized bottles and provided hand sanitizer and dividers between tables. Very great place and lovely people!
