Pottery painting is a fun activity suitable for children and adults. McCall hosts pottery painting sessions and parties in Downhill and in other locations by arrangement.

First you select a piece to paint ranging from tiles and mugs to bowls, plates and teapots. We will give you a demonstration of easy techniques using different brushes and sponges to create your designs. You can also look through our inspiration books for ideas. Then you relax and decorate your piece with a spectrum of underglaze paints. When you are finished, we take your piece and apply a transparent glaze, then fire it to make it functional, durable and food-safe.

Pieces are normally ready for your collection 2-5 days later. Prices range from £6.50 to £30 depending on what you choose to paint.Price lists are available on request. Group discounts are also available.

This is a great way to make unique commemerative gifts and is a good group activity for a crafty evening or party!
