Paint a Ceramic Piece

For those of you who would prefer to just paint a ceramic piece that is already made!

Also known as ‘Hobby Ceramics’, this activity was very popular in the 1960’s and 70’s, where people would get together and use underglaze or glazes to paint sculptures, plates, mugs and other various decorative pieces.

I think, as minimalistic interior design became popular, many of these hobbies died down, as people weren’t keeping as many little knick-knacks around the house.

Coming into 2024 and 2025 we have seen a surge in maximalist interior design with bold colours and lots of eclectic pieces decorating peoples’ houses again.

As they say… if it brings you joy…

How does it work?

We offer ‘Hobby Ceramics’ at our Towradgi Studio. (We are planning to open a new studio in Shellharbour in 2026 so stay tuned for that too!)

Book your session, then come in and choose a piece off the shelf, choose your colours, and paint your ceramic piece.

We then take your pieces and fire them in the kiln, then notify you once they are ready for pickup. We say to allow a

4 weeks turnaround time, but they could be ready in 2 weeks!

NOTE: Dependant on availability on the day! We can’t promise that we will have what you want in stock, so please pre-order your favourite if you want a specific item!

We also offer party packs. Choose the ceramic pieces you like, we make them for you. You host your own party and either paint them with acrylic paints (if you don’t want to bring them back for firing), or we can give you underglazes to take home. Then book a firing service with us afterwards.
