Pottery Painting at Salt Pots
Pick a pot. Choose your colours. Make it completely yours.
Pottery painting is for everyone — little ones, grown-ups, complete beginners and seasoned creatives.
Simply choose a piece from our pottery collection, settle in at your table and paint it your way. We'll glaze and fire your masterpiece, ready for you to collect.
Pottery starts from £10 — and the price you see is the price you pay.
No studio fees. No painting fees. No hidden extras.
Painting is better with a little sweet treat so why not order something delicious while you paint. We have artisan coffees, cakes and milkshakes available to order on the day.
