Pottery Painting

When the fall weather is just a bit too cold to spend time outside, Color Me Mine will provide the perfect way to stay indoors while still being festive. Opening at Foothills mall in November, Color Me Mine is a paint it yourself pottery studio where you can paint pottery plates, decorative items and everything in between.
