When can I collect my pottery?

Painted pottery items are ready to collect between 1 & 7 days later depending on the space in the kilns at the time that you come in. You will be informed of the collection date on the day you paint We do offer a rush service for an additional £4 if you need the item sooner, such as last minute gifts. All other crafts can be taken home the same day.

Are my pottery mugs and plates food safe?

Yes. Once fired in the kiln items are food and drink safe. You can also wash items by hand and occasionally in the dishwasher on the top shelf. Items can also be placed in a microwave.
