They are very hospitable and very knowledgeable about the types of paints used in the area. My fiancee and I painted small sea turtles, and they ship them out the next day, since she and I live in Houston. I would definitely recommend this place to couples, and families with kids. The picture attached was before the cooking process. I'll add an after picture when I get it after they ship it.

WOW! This is definitely worth doing! My family and I went on vacation and we had an amazing time. Prices vary from super cheap to a little pricey. But, the price tag is worth it considering it includes the time you spend in the shop, glazes/paints, and firing! The staff was extremely nice and helpful. Theres so many glazes and pieces to choose from, 10/10 recommend this as a way to beat the heat!

A fun activity to do while in Port A. The staff was very eager to help and they had lots of people on hand to assist everyone. I was surprised with how bright and beautiful the pieces were after being fired (Even the ones painted by my 4 and 7 yr old).Even though they had a ton of pieces to fire that night, we were still able to pick up all of our pieces the next day. We will definitely be back.

Great establishment for a family fun time especially little ones, glad we went early because it got really packed after noon. So many beautiful pieces to pick from. A little on the pricey side but the memories were worth it. Very helpful and creative staff.

We had a great experience! I have never really been to one of these paint-it-yourself ceramics stores before, and the staff were very friendly and made the whole experience simple and fun for us. I had my 5 year old and 6 month old with me and all 3 of us had a good time. LOTS of pieces to choose from for any interest/age group. I was impressed by the sheer variety they had to select from. I will definitely be coming here again on our next trip to Port A. So much more meaningful than a typical souvenir at a gift shop.

First time here and we had a lot of fun. Made a coffee mug with my godson's foot print on it. Very friendly staff and they will do their absolute best to have your ceramics ready before you leave town. They will give you a timeline so you will know if you have time or not. Love it

This is my second year visiting and the staff here is so helpful and friendly! They even let us request and play two songs on their store speakers. This is the perfect indoor activity, take a break from the heat and visit Fire It! It will probably take you about an hour to pick and paint your item and give them 1-2 days to get it complete. If you don't have time to pick it up, they will ship it for you. This is a Port A favorite.

It was so much fun!! My husband and I really enjoyed it while we were in Port Aransas. It was a beautiful location and the people running it were so sweet and helpful. Wish we had one here in Granbury.

I took my family here while celebrating and the prices were reasonable. They had a lot of pottery to choose from for all ages and you are able to choose 6 paints with refills. You are advised to paint 3 layers and they dry fairly fast. The pickup process is super easy and fast and the staff is kind!

Came down to Port A for vacation and this is definitely a great place to spend an afternoon… or two!The staff is very friendly, has a great sense of humor and even for a newbie like me they were very helpful when choosing the paint, paint brushes and even in a way how to paint to make sure it turned out amazing.There are a lot of ceramics to choose from to paint, seems like they have just about everything; from letters, to mugs, to coasters and everything big and small.Will definitely be back again… hopefully sooner rather than later.

Went with my two kids to have a fun afternoon. It turns into a 30 minute hunt for a reasonably priced item for them to paint. The item prices range from incredibly pricey ($40 for a piggy bank!) to borderline insane ($245 for the same light up Christmas tree that Costco sells for $40). On top of that, they tell you shipping starts at $12, which sounds reasonable, until they tell you when checking out that each section of your piece is $12, so $48 to ship two 6 inch jewelry boxes to Houston! To add insult to injury, as we were being informed of the shipping cost (after painting), they told my daughter to go put her apron in their hamper. As she did so, she walked behind her chair, in a very narrow walkway next to huge delicately balanced shelves of ceramics. Her apron knocked a tiny Christmas tree ornament off of the shelf and it broke. The employees didn't bat an eye, and told us it was 50% off charge for any broken items, or 100% if we wanted to paint it! So we were forced to pay another $11.50 for a broken ornament which they kept at the store. There was zero flexibility with this policy or acknowledging that it was stupid. They just lost a customer who comes back annually over an ornament they paid $2.32 for (I looked it up online!)I don't recommend unless you plan to set aside $200 to burn and keep your kids chained to you at all times. Terrible policies and we won't be back! Owner is unreachable at the phone number the employees provided.

Wife and I came in with no real expectations, time to spend, and really bad weather outside. That led to spending a great day together and having fun doing something new to both of us. I found it to be fun and relaxing, and the staff there was very friendly and helpful in every way. Their selection of pottery pieces was extensive...definitely something for everyone. I had to have our pieces shipped home, so haven't seen the finished product yet, but I'll post pics when I get them.

Painted this cute mermaid mug since we are at the coast. The owner and her husband were super cool they let you bring a cooler in and your own snacks. No outside alcohol though. They do have alcohol for purchase Our ceramics were ready the next day.
