Looking to paint pottery? It’s the perfect activity to do with kids and in the cold winter months when you’re about to go stir-crazy if you don’t leave your house 😉
How does pottery painting work?
- Pick the piece you want to paint
- Choose the colors you’d like to use
- Grab a brush
- Paint until your heart’s content
- Pick your piece up at a later date after it’s been glazed & fired in the kiln
And the best part, there’s no experience necessary.
Check out these local pottery painting studios that have open-studio hours and paint party options:
Designing Dish
Location: East Aurora, NY
At Designing Dish, you can come in anytime during their open studio hours, pick out your piece and start painting. If you’d rather paint at home, they offer a “pottery to go” option, where you pick out your supplies, paint your piece at home, and then bring the piece back to get fired in the kiln

Personal Notes:
Mariah: I’ve personally been to Designing Dish quite a few times and always have a blast. My nieces (ages 8 & 11) really love going too! We were there when there was a birthday party going on and it looked like an awesome idea for kids.
