COME TO CLAY CAFE ANYTIME!

OR WE’LL COME TO YOU!

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS

STEP 1:

PICK A PEICE OF POTTERY

There is so much to choose from at Clay Café, so this may be the most challenging part of your visit!

Prices are marked on shelves + tax (includes paint and firing).

Bring your piece to the counter to pay for and receive your forms.

STEP 2:

DECIDE ON A DESIGN

Plan your design or choose from some of our design binders. Use stencils and stamps or browse through our “technique
tiles.”

There’s lots of help at Clay Café with the creative process!

Use carbon paper and pencil very lightly to trace your image onto your piece or your piece may require 2 firings.

STEP 3:

CHOOSE YOUR COLOURS

You only need to start with a little bit of paint so as not to waste any.

If you like a more solid finish, 3 coats of paint should come out without streaks. Anything less will be more transparent and streaky if you prefer that effect.

STEP 4:

SIT DOWN AND PAINT

Now is the fun part – you can sit down, relax, have fun, and paint away! Remember we are here to help, so if you need any suggestions or have questions about the effect of certain paint, or how many coats are needed, then call us over and we’re happy to assist. We also offer a variety of snacks and beverages for your visit.

STEP 5:

FIRE ‘EM UP

Write a description for your piece when you’re finished and we’ll give you your time and date for pickup.

Running out of time? You don’t have to finish your piece in one sitting. You can always take it home with you and bring it back to finish on a convenient week night.

Then be sure to come back and paint again (it’s a healthy addiction, promise!). If you prefer to have a painting pottery activity at your home, office or school, be sure to check out our Take Home Kit.

Walk in’s welcome. No appointment necessary. Everyone’s an Artist!
