How it works
Pottery painting uses pre-fired, blank ceramics, often known
as bisque.
An arts and craft based activity that can be enjoyed by anyone,
regardless of age, ability, experience or individual needs.
Whether you are looking for a gift or something for yourself;
what could be nicer than a truly personal, high quality, lasting
keepsake...a painted pot that is uniquely you!
Aside from be great entertainment, the therapeutic benefits
for all age groups are wide reaching and include:
Manual dexterity and motor skills
Encouraging and improving creativity
Perseverance and concentration
Social interaction and confidence building
The choosing
By far the hardest part!
Choose from around 80 blank pot designs.
We stock everything from the fun to the practical, with
designs changing regularly to keep up with even the most frequent of painters!
