I’ve been here multiple times and have enjoyed each visit! The staff are friendly and helpful, the prices of the pieces are reasonable and it is usually a pretty quick turn around for receiving finished projects.

The Potter's Cottage is my #1 locally owned business in all of Kansas City. I first heard about them at Planet Comicon in the spring of 2022. I have attended several special events including May the Fourth celebrations, space day (where my husband brought his BB-8 droid for kids to take pictures with) and had my 30th "Lisa Frank" themed birthday party here. Definitely follow their Facebook page for updated parties (Harry Potter night was awesome!) Each summer, Brenda has children camps that kiddos can participate, each with a different themed week, and corresponding crafts that match.The best thing about The Potter's Cottage is the people who run it: Brenda, her family, and all of the staff (Christine, Emma) are incredibly knowledgeable on the process. I love coming here. In fact, one day I came at 10:30am and left at 5:15pm! I painted, painted and painted. I didn't feel rushed to get out and they were complimentary of my paintings.*Experience & How It Works*All the items you can paint have the supplies included in the prices. If you pick something that is $6 or $60, all the supplies are included. You can use as many paints as you want, as many glazes, etc. At your table, you will fill out a piece of paper outlining what colors you want, the size, and then the pottery wizards will get your glaze for you. Brushes are found at the table as well as your 'menu' of colors.Different glazes have different purposes - some are food safe, some are not. If you do not paint the item fully, it will still be glazed for its own protection. It is recommended that you paint each glaze color 3x for maximum coverage and opacity. ALSO, wipe off your pottery piece with the sponge and water to help get dust off before you start painting.After you are finished, leave your painting on the table and then you will pay up front for your item. The staff then will fire it up, and call you once it has been finished. They will hold your pottery piece for 3 months.*Things I've Painted*R2-D2 piggy bank, BB-8 piggy bank, a dragon egg, a deer plate, a witchy kitty cat, an R2-D2 bowl, a hobbit door.

So much fun! We visited for a girls afternoon and had an amazing time. You pick your piece to paint, pick your colors of paint, and get to painting. We spent almost two hours painting and chatting. They have plenty of tables and chairs. They will fire your pieces and call you in about a week. Lots of different types of items from dishes to vases to decorative items. They had some different interests represented from mermaids to star wars.

Love this place! My partner and I have been here about 3-4 times already. They have a variety of items to paint and are willing to help and answer any questions. They’re also great about giving you an estimated time to pick up your item(s) and reach out asap once it’s done. Highly recommend!

Potter's Cottage, what a wonderful place to be. Fairies, Unicorns, gaming, sports, animals, plates bowls and so much more... So many ceramic items to choose from. Paint colors are whimsically named. A sweet little touch of imagination, for your imagination to run wild. I've been to many ceramic shops, this is the best in the KC area.

My sister and I had a great time. The selection is much better than other places I have been and they offer free coffee! :) The staff is very friendly and the owner is amazing.She reached out to me personally to clear up a misunderstanding and shed some light on a specific situation. Because of this, I believe she is a business owner who cares about and supports the people in her community. She went above and beyond to help not only her customers but her staff too.
