Award winning, air conditioned paint-your-own pottery studio in the heart of Epsom
Welcome to Happy Glaze Ceramics
A creative, relaxing paint-your-own pottery studio for people of all ages and abilities. It’s best to book, but do give us a ring to check availability if you’re thinking of popping down. Our studio fee of £6 per painter (from Monday 9th May) covers the paint, glaze, firing and 2 hours of studio time. Should you need longer to create your masterpiece, you are able to return to the studio to finish the same piece at a reduced studio fee cost of £4. We don’t charge for non-painters, which are restricted to one adult per table.
How it works
Choose your pottery
Choose from our extensive range of bisque. We have teapots, money boxes, mugs, plates, jugs and figurines and much more. Our stock changes regularly and we have seasonal items as well as the usual everyday items. We’re also happy to source a particular item for you if you have anything specific in mind. All our bisque is individually priced and starts from £6.
Paint your piece
Time to get creative! We have everything you need to create your masterpiece: inspiration books, stencils, sponges, brushes and more. We currently have 36 paint colours as well as speckled, sparkled and speciality glazes. All under-glaze paints are child safe, water based, non-toxic and easy to use. We offer a range of techniques and ideas for you to get the most out of your painting session.
Tea, coffee & snacks and drinks can also be purchased to consume whilst you’re in the studio. Please feel free to bring along your own drinks and snacks, as long as they are not hot food.
Collect your masterpiece
We clear glaze and fire your pottery on-site in our wonderful kilns. The process usually takes 7 – 10 days and once your creation is ready, we will send you a text with your collection code. When you come to collect your piece, you’ll need to know the collection code to collect. We do ask that you are prompt in collecting your pieces as space is limited and we will dispose of any items not collected within 3 months.

What people say
So happy that Epsom finally has a ceramics place and not only that, one with modern ideas and super friendly and helpful owners.
I was really impressed with the choice of things to paint and also the inspiration and ideas. I love love loved it. Can’t wait to go back.

What a lovely place, took my two boys 8 & 6 here today and had a great time. They really enjoyed it and I also had a go myself. The staff were friendly and when the boys had finished gave them colouring to do whilst I finished up.
Can’t wait to collect our pieces next week. Definitely up for the adults session!

My daughter and I went to Happy Glaze this afternoon and had a lovely time, such a fab little place and nothing is too much trouble.
Lovely atmosphere, will definitely be going back without my child as well as with her. Thank you very much for a lovely afternoon.
