Confused?

• Are your products food safe? - YES! Everything is painted is dipped in a clear glaze that makes everything food safe when fired. You can sip and eat safely! 

​

• Why is there a 5 to 7 day turnaround to pick up items? - Once you paint your pottery, we allow the piece to dry overnight. The items are then glazed and "fired".  During the summer months, when we are at our peak season, we may need more time to get all the items "fired". We always can ship your pieces to you, for an additional fee, if you are leaving town before they will be ready. 

​

• What are those little marks on my finished pieces - Those are stilt marks. We apply a clear glaze to your painted items before firing them in the kiln. To insure that the items do not adhere to the shelves, they are placed on metal stilts to keep them elevated. We then grind down any sharp edges with a fine grain dremel tool. Also, we do are best to stilt your pottery in a way that is the least noticeable. Usually on the bottom.

​

• Do you have a catalog? - Not really. Because our inventory is always growing and changing, it would be impossible to keep a permanent catalog of our products. And, sometimes, our suppliers simply don't carry certain items any longer.  Also, our inventory may change with different seasons. You can always check out our Facebook, Instagram pages for photos that recent customers have painted. 

​

• Do I need a reservation? - Well, this depends. If you have a larger group, it's the weekend, or the peak season, reservations are encouraged. Though, "walk-ins" are always welcome, our ability to seat you depends on table availability.  If you wish to schedule a party, or event, outside of my normal business hours, give me a call. #912-483-9563

​

• Do you have a last seating time? - I usually do a "last-seating" about an hour and a half before the closing time. It is normally at least an hour long process to choose your item, pick your paint colors, and settle in to painting. We also know some customers will be quicker with the process and take this into consideration.  

​

• What is your studio fee? - There is a $8  "per-person" "studio fee" in addition to the piece you choose to paint. This fee covers the cost of the paint, the glazing process, and firing your pieces. This is not a "per-item" fee. One person can paint 10 items and we still only charge one studio fee.  

​

• Do you ship? - Yes. United States shipping is available for an additional fee. Please be aware that during our busy months shipping usually takes about a month to process, package, and get sent out. I have a very small studio and shipping can only be completed on certain days. 

​

• I am a potter. May I use your kiln? - I'm sorry, but no. It's hard to know exactly what each piece in my shop is made of, exactly how it needs to be fired, and I can't take a chance that my customers pieces would be damaged in the firing process with anything that needs a different firing method. 

​

• Can I eat/drink in GAC? - Yes! Outside drinks are always welcome. Food is fine during a scheduled party, but you just need to be careful with grease, or food, on your hands during painting. It can potentially keep the paint from properly adhering to the pottery. 

​

• Are you Handicap Accessible? - Yes. :-) 

​

• Are Pets allowed?- Yes, but you are encouraged sit at one of the outside picnic tables. Especially with larger dogs. Tails start wagging with all the fun we have, and pieces go flying! LOL!  All service animal are welcome.

​

• What payment methods do you accept? - Cash, all credit and debit cards, ApplePay, CashApp. 

​

• Does your mascot have a name? - Yes. Theodore DeGlazer. Better known as "Theo". 

​

• Is there ANY reason why I shouldn't come paint pottery at GAC? - Nope! It's super fun for all ages!
