Summary:
My wife and I each created two ceramic tiles in about 90 minutes. We kept our designs simple, but other people were creating more complex tiles. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

Summary:
Really fun and interactive experience. You will get your hands dirty (aprons provided) and be able to create two of your own masterpieces with initial education on different techniques. It was my first time doing a class like this and I really enjoyed making my pieces and how they came out. Eric and Wendy are very sweet and helpful attending to our needs throughout the session and sometimes before we even realized we needed something. They also have great recommendations for places to eat, etc. Also, had to ship 6 pieces (mine and friends) back to the USA since we were leaving before they’d be ready and shipping costs were less than I expected and they provided a full breakdown of the costs. Highly recommend. Thank you Eric and Wendy!
