Color Me Mine!

We had my daughter’s 9 year birthday party here and everyone had such a fun time! I totally recommend this as something new & different for a birthday party. My only regret is setting up a 2 hour party, and wish I had only done 1.5 hours. The girls finished their painting portion after the first 30 minutes, and gratefully, the host from Color Me Mine quickly provided a bingo game that we played for another half hour (I gave away their goodie bags as prizes LOL!). We then opened up presents and had cake, and were left with some extra time where the girls colored on the chalk board and were getting a bit rowdy & loud. The Color Me Mine staff was totally fine with all of this and the party was great. Just wish I had done 1.5 hours and it would have been perfect.

Amazing!!! The staff is so friendly and so deserving for your business really! If you are looking to plan a party this is the place to go! I had an incredible time with my friend and it was our first time in any kind of paint studio. Also it is byob! I’ve never been somewhere else where I just fell in love with their service! Remember to tip!

I had a great time painting a tic tac toe pottery game board with my daughters here. They have a lot of great items to paint. The staff is awesome and really helpful!

My son and I had painted here. I received our plates and it came with a description paper attached that was MOST RUDE! I am furious with this store. I had called numerous times to try to rectify this poor handling of the situation only to get 1 return call to my voicemail. I have not been able to speak to the owner so I continue to leave voice mail detailed messages. I expected my money back after having been described as «ignorant, racist and a white power supporter» because my CHILD had painted the rebel flag. All if which are so not the case. I am livid and after 6 weeks I have yet to be compensated or called. I was told that I should not have gotten the paper that was left with our artwork. Really? That was intended to appease me? It doesn’t. I was told that she hoped I would come back. Well that’s not going to happen either — not any more. Only to pick up my $ 60.00 and if I could take back my $ 20.00 tip I would do that too from the young girl who wrote that trash on our art paperwork.
Overpriced and not business minded. What ever happened to customer service? This is terrible.
UPDATE! Since trying the «owner» I found out she wasn’t. They have new management and the manager Traci, is going out of her way to rectify the situation! I’m very pleased now that they have someone there that cares about the customer! My son and I will try this again now that something has transpired and hope for a 100% turn around from our only other visit! Thank you Traci for caring!

I took my son here over a week ago and still do not have our pottery. We really enjoyed our time creating it and have been anxiously waiting to see the final product. Before we left we were told that it would take 4 – 5 days for our pottery to finish baking. We came back five days later and were told that they were really backed up and it would be a few more days. We waited three more days and were told the same thing. Another two days later and now out pottery cannot be found! Completely unacceptable. The experience itself was great but the lack of a final product should earn them zero stars.

Supply fee $ 10 PER PERSON, plus expensive pieces of pottery. Many unexpected fees. Already paid a, pretty large, amount of money and then had to pay an extra $ 20 when I picked the pieces up that we were never told about! There are many other similar places that do the same thing for a lower cost.

My daughter and I had a play date meet us here. The cost of the pottery items were a little high but then they charge you a studio fee on top of that. We ended up spending over $ 74 on 2 pieces of pottery. Really??? I think the pricing is ridiculous and certainly not a place you can go very often. I can say, I’ll never go back!!! It was a one time deal for us. Also, my daughter wanted a piece of pottery (small cat) but the lady said she couldn’t have it because it was only for people having parties there. What??? I feel like as much as you are expecting us to pay for your services that we should be able to paint whatever the heck we want!

Super fun place to take your kids to create art in a fun atmosphere. Yes, some pieces are a bit pricey but there are a ton of options to choose from so you can select the right art piece to fit your budget. The staff was attentive and kind. My kids loved it. I loved it. We’ll be back.

Lovet this place! The people are friendly and helpful. The price is competitive wtih other places. They are wonderful to work with. We had a great time here.

I went yesterday with a friend, and had a great time!
They must have changed their pricing structure, because the price marked was what I ended up paying. Not only did I have a great time, but I felt the pricing was fair for what I chose.
I chose a large mug and my friend picked a vase. The paint and pottery options here are great, and they let us freely choose brushes and paint colors as we went along. We were here for a good 3.5 hours! Time flew, and I appreciated that employees came by periodically to check on us.
I’m definitely coming back soon. Their stuff would make great gifts too!
Overall, a super fun experience! :D

Trying to be more than it is.
Kids in the birthday parties seem to be having fun. So do the kids who come to smack paint on a pottery piece and leave.
As for anyone truly trying to create art especially in glass, you may leave frustrated and broke! Came for a while with a friend. Prices hard to distinguish… base price visible when you go to check out…+ this + that. Be up front with people! What you can accomplish/​touch is limited by who is working. Not all have same training… some really talented people have worked there… dont think they were trained differently… just think some came in with more skills. if you have a tool, train your people to use it.
i’ve spent significant money there. dont go any longer. the clincher. the OWNER. i came in one day to finish a piece and pick up a piece. first she informed me of another add on fee. then proceeded to tell me that there was no way the shape i was using would fit on the glass size i was being charged for. basically… either her staff was giving me a discount or i was ‘stealing’ from her. i walked over grabbed the size on the form and showed her that it fit on there… oh and by the way she’s been using the remnants for others. i at least expected an apology. her response — «oh» i have since found many other venues with skilled glass people, consistent policies, and oh yeah they’re pleasant.
so…having a kiddie bday party. go for it. want to create art. look elsewhere.

3 Words: Fun but Expensive!
My wife and I have been here twice.
Our most recent experience:
Linda was incredibly friendly and helpful and the process itself was fun. You get to choose your piece and glaze colors. There are all sorts of different types of paint brushes so you can get creative. Art Attack also offers glass fusing and mosaic classes, and camp for kids during the summertime. We really enjoyed the process, the only thing I wish is they were a little more affordable so we could come back more often. They’re just far too expensive. I understand their fees include everything: the pottery piece, paint, and firing it for you in the kiln, but it’s just too damn expensive. My wife painted a small tray that cost $ 24.00 and I painted a spoon holder for the stove top, which cost about $ 18.00. With our Groupon it was definitely worth it. Without a Groupon, we won’t be coming back. Really want to see this business succeed but I have no idea why anyone would come back more than once with the prices. If they lowered their prices they would have a LOT more repeat business. Just my thought. You also have to continually ask for paint which is awkward, they should just bring the bottles you’re using to your table.

My 3 year old complains every night at dinner that his sister has a plate she got to make and he doesn’t. We went to Art Attack today to solve that problem. Since I have not a single artistic bone in my body I was actually kind of dreading the goopy mess he would make out of his creation. To my relief, the owner sat right down with my kiddo and helped him create a bowl with his named stamped out and some stars. He needed to feel like it was his so now it’s half goopy mess and half cute creation! Thanks to the owner for helping him create! We’ve been a handful of times for parties and such and it’s always clean and well run! Glad to have this place nearby!

This is such a great way to spend an afternoon. My boyfriend and I were looking for something to do and after seeing this store a few weeks ago I knew this was a winner! The staff was incredibly helpful and talented. They have a huge variety of pottery to paint, but also offer mosaics, painting and glass work. Prices were fair, but a little too high to make this something I do all the time. I painted an owl bank and the boyfriend painted a wizard. There was a slight price mix up but since we had a coupon and it was only a 4 dollar difference we didnt care that much. Check their website before going. They have a coupon section that can save you some money. This is a great activity for adults, but be warned there are going to be kids.

Our daughter just finished one of Art Attack’s week long summer camps. She really enjoyed it. I thought it was affordable enough to be worth doing. She made some fun little pieces and I think it was a good opportunity for her to do some projects outside of our guidance. They had a good group of girls there. I’m glad to see them getting some decent business coming through.
Only one complaint for those that might be a little more challenged by art projects: they did a glass tile mosaic. The kids tacked the tiles down but then the parents got handed a bag of grout to finish the project at home. If my wife wasn’t an art teacher in the past, we both agreed these projects would probably never see completion with most other families. That was slightly disappointing. My wife finished it up, and it took her a good hour or two. The projects should be taken to completion. So, FYI if you’re not so crafty.

it was fun and my girls loved it. I think it was just a bit pricey. I paid over $ 60 for couple of pieces of potteries they painted. I think its worth going once for the experience.

I would have given this place 4 stars because the general experience of painting your own pottery is pretty fun. However, my one visit to this place was less than stellar. You pick out what you want to paint and then paint it before paying. Well, I chose a very cute dog bowl which was clearly labeled on the shelf as costing X amount. However, when I went to pay, the girl working the register informed me that I had chosen the «large» bowl which was actually more expensive. I pointed out that there was only one size available on the shelf and that there was only one price tag on the shelf. She informed me that it was a mistake and insisted that I pay the higher amount. Since I had already painted the bowl, I felt slightly forced into just paying. About a week later, my friend went to pick up our pieces. When she delivered my bowl to me, along with the original tracking receipt, I discovered that the receipt actually listed the same price that I believed I should have been charged originally. Although somewhat gratified by this discovery, I was even more frustrated to have been unfairly overcharged. While I won’t discourage others from going here, I will strongly suggest that you confirm prices prior to beginning your project.

Definitely a fan. PYOP is my favorite hobby, but because I am a poor and busy graduate student, it’s not something I get to indulge in as often as I would like. Me and my friend got a Groupon from Art Attack and came to redeem it a little while ago.
This place is tucked away in the Hill Country Galleria shopping center out in Bee Cave, which was adorrrrrable, if not WAY out of my price range.
The décor of this place is super cute. I was definitely impressed with their pottery selection (which ended up becoming quite troublesome, since I have a hard time making decisions. haha)
There were instructions on laminated sheets on the tables clearly explaining the process and any helpful advice. The employees more than once came around to give us a couple hints and tips, which I REALLY appreciated– never had that kind of service and attention at other PYOP places.
They also do glass fusing here as well, which looks kinda cool. And a separate room just for parties, so it can be somewhat private.
Cons:
— You’re supposed to get help from an employee to get paints for you. I understand their concern with children, but then just change the policy for kids. It was annoying to have to get someone else to keep squirting out the same blue for me over and over. It takes a lot of paint for three coats!
— You have to pay a studio fee. I know this is somewhat typical, but Café Monet doesn’t charge a studio fee and their pottery pieces are about the same in price. However, it wasn’t a big deal, though, considering all the extra help you get and all the extra cool stuff they have to work with. They have tracing paper! Who knew?!
PLUS. When you go to pick up your completed item, they wrap it up in orange tissue paper and then put it in this cute little polka-​dot bag! (I’m all about the cuteness, obviously).
And after you’re done painting, grab a Jamba Juice or some ice cream and just walk around the shopping center and enjoy the day. I saw lots of families doing just this when I went.
Aaaand because I can’t help myself. *insert rant for inconsiderate parents* Please don’t bring your screaming toddlers/​infants here. If your kids cannot control themselves (or are just babies and cry because it’s what they DO), a pottery painting place is not the best option for you. Not only do your children’s screams reverberate off the walls, but you are there for a really, really long time because you are PAINTING. It’s worse when you’re painting and your kid is obviously bored because they were done a long time ago. Please. Get a babysitter and get your painting lollies on your own time. Kthx.
