Frequently Asked Questions.....

Q.What is The Glaze Craze?

A. We are a do it yourself studio, where you can walk-in and paint your own pottery,  or schedule a clay class, party or special event.

Q. Do I have to make an appointment to come in and paint a piece?

A. Nope, Just come on in when ever we are open. We suggest giving yourself atleast an hour before we close, since we close up early if no one is there (and you will need at least a full hour generally to paint). You can pick from any of our hundreds of pieces and paint on the spot, no reservation needed.

Q. Do I need to be an artist to do anything in your shop?

A. Nope, There is no experience required. We have lots of stencils, stamps, and very helpful staff that will show you all the short cuts to beautiful piece that you can show off to others!

Q. Can I use this stuff?

A. Yes. All the pieces are like any other dish you could buy after we have fired it in our kiln. It's food-safe,  microwave and dishwasher safe and completely non-toxic. We are proud to say our studio is completely lead-free!

Q.What can kids do at The Glaze Craze?

A. We can amuse children of all ages, including infants! You can paint your baby's feet, or your children's hands on a platter, a vase or a coffee mug. Even the youngest child likes to play with brushes, sponges and paints. Finger painting on pieces (but not on employees) is allowed and encouraged. The paints rinse off the kids and their clothes with water.

Q.How much does it cost?

A. Our pieces range in price from $6.00 on up (Plus we have jewelry from $2.00 and up). There is something for everyone. We charge for the piece you choose to paint plus a studio fee, which covers the paints and supplies.

Q. Can I bring my friends, co-workers?

A. Of course! The more the merrier. However larger groups may want to call to make a reservation, but small groups are welcomed any time.

Q. Can I take the piece home with me immediately after I paint it?

A. No, It takes us 1 week to fire the piece in our kiln before you can take it home. If you would prefer to paint it at home instead of in our studio we do have an option for that. But the piece must be returned to us to be finished, and it still takes 1 week.

Q. Can I bring food or drinks with me?

A. Yes, Feel free to bring some snacks with you. Although we have a fully stocked snack bar on site if you need something. We ask that you don't bring any peanut products into the store though as we are trying to become a nut free facility.
