Fancy having a party at home?
We have put together a party box so you can have a ceramic painting party at home. The party box contains all the materials you need along with all the instructions for a successful and fun party.
Choice of mugs, plates, bowls, tiles or animal.
Deposit and pre booking required.
Simply collect your chosen package then return 1 week later for firing.
If you are visiting York and unable to wait for your item to be fired then you can paint in Acrylic paint and take your painted masterpiece away with you. Acrylic is a specialist hard wearing paint that paints on to our ceramics beautifully. Price is a standard studio fee + the cost of the item. Please note that Acrylics are suitable for decorative items only.
We are loving Beauty and the Beast so we have painted a set for the window! Why not pop in to paint yourself a Belle, Chip and Mrs Potts 🙂
Stuck with an idea as to what to paint with your toddler? Then how about trying out our new ‘Sticky Shapes and Splodging’ idea!
We have cut out loads of these little self adhesive shapes just for you. Simply stick them on to your item and let your toddler splodge away. When they’ve finished just remove the sticker and you’ll have a lovely paint free area for you to write. Voila!
Well kind of. We were asked to paint some Colour Wheel plates by COCA (Centre of Ceramic Art) as a way of displaying to children how Primary and Secondary colours work together. COCA is a brand new exhibition as part of the York City Art Gallery 2 year refurbishment. Check the new gallery out it’s amazing. www.yorkmuseumstrust.org.uk

We’re really excited to be sponsoring Rufforth Primary School’s new sports kit. A little birdy told us that they’ve won both their matches so far, so maybe they’ve got some Rainbows luck!
We have just launched a new responsive website so we’ll be very interested to know what you think? If there is anything that you think we could change or if anything is not quite working right please tell us your thoughts. Thank you! 🙂
In addition to our standard underglazes we also stock a great selection of specialist pottery glazes. These look amazing and if you paint with these everyone will think you’re an amazing artist! However the reality is they are very easy to use. Please pop in and have a look!
