Kettle Spot Ceramics at Truely Unique

Kettle Spot recently acquired Toisnot Ceramics! Watch for changes monthly at Truely Unique.   We will start weekly ceramic painting and firing. You may come in and buy bisque piece or statue to take home and paint. Or you may come in pick your pieces and paint here.  Ceramics on display at Truely Unique are ready to paint with any acrylic you’d like and if you’d like to store them outside you can use spray acrylic paint to seal them from weather. If you’d like to glaze your pottery we have 2 kilns to seal your pieces.

Tickets will be sold for Tuesdays and Thursday Evenings, in which for $20.00 dollars you’ll be allotted a 2.5-hour, paint period. All pieces priced with $20.00 dollar ticket in mind, liability waiver required.  We supply the paint and sealer if you buy a ticket. Feel free to paint a collection of small pieces or one big ones, since the shop is after hours; please bring your own snacks. 

Kettle Spot has always valued putting community first, and given the mission of Kettle Spot to provide plastic free options, it seems the best way to fight plastic statuary is allow the public to paint their own.

Come by and see what pottery and ceramics we have to purchase and paint.
