Pottery Camp — Attraction in Clayton

Writing a negative review for a small business is something I rarely do especially in the current climate. However, our experience with the Peacock Glazing class left much to be desired prompting me to share my thoughts.

Initially, we were informed of a choice between 5 base colors. As the class progressed and questions arose about the options, it appeared that the color selection expanded unexpectedly.

Among the group of 8 women, 6 felt that the technique was inadequately explained and speculated whether our class might have been the instructor's first.

The colors I chose, all shades of grey and neutrals, turned into various shades of green upon completion.

Upon reviewing photos of my bowl at different stages, she concluded that the process was not applied correctly.

But once you got going it was so relaxing just putting together your own personal puzzle with glass. It only took a few days to get our finished pieces back. The colors are wonderful and the texture is fun. Highly satisfied and we will definitely go back again. They had such a huge selection of pottery pieces to choose from and paint and the prices were very fair and affordable for...
