Crafty Pots - Previously Color Me Mine Markham

03/09/2023

March Break is almost here and we’re just as excited as all the kids! We can’t wait to see everyone again, having a great time at Crafty Pots. We aim to have the best selection in the entire GTA and great prices.

A whole lot of awesome new pieces are already on the shelves for you to choose.

Seating is first come, first served. We have added additional tables to the already large studio, so come on in. We do not do reservations, sorry.

During March Break we'll be open at 11 am, and starting Thursday March 16 you will enjoy a repeat visit discount of 10% on ceramics if you’ve already painted on Sat Mar 11 or later.

As a special treat, each group will get a coupon for a cookie or a small ice cream to be redeemed at the lovely local Cats Meow cafe around the corner on Robinson Street during March Break. Limit one per group/table.

During March Break we unfortunately cannot offer glass fusing or board art due to space constraints. Glow in the dark is unavailable because we've unexpectedly run out of glow paint, sorry.

Pottery wheel throwing is only possible if you are experienced and require no instruction at all, only for max 4, and only if staff feels able, sorry. A few hours advance notice is required.

It’s probably no surprise that discounts cannot be combined, and the repeat visit discount can’t be claimed during the same day. Other restrictions may apply, please ask in the studio.

For more information please visit our website at https://craftypots.studio or call us at 905 477 0002

Please join our email list to learn about events, specials, workshops and more. The address will never be shared and there will usually be only one email per month.

Discounts cannot be combined and repeat visit discount can’t be claimed the same day. Other restrictions may apply, please ask in the studio.

During March Break we unfortunately cannot offer glass fusing or board art due to space constraints. Pottery wheel throwing is also not possible, sorry.

Dear visitor. This page is not updated any more as we've changed our name to Crafty Pots Markham. If you've liked this page, and would like to receive news from the studio, please be sure to like or follow Crafty Pots Markham instead. Color Me Mine is a US franchise, but Crafty Pots Markham is a locally owned, fully independent studio😀😍

Earth Day is today Sunday April 22 and it's a fine spring day indeed. We'd of course love for you to come paint flowerpots and the like at Crafty Pots on Markham Main Street :-) and If you also want to enjoy the outside there are quite a few nature walk opportunites nearby.

Just a few minutes walk down Robinson brings you to the Board Walk, a short trip along the Tannery Pond among last years cat tails which takes you to Bullock, and right on the other side of Bullock is a really nice wetland park with an entrance on Snider Drive to the right of where you come out from the boardwalk. Of course, Markham Museum at the Markham Road, 16th Avenue is always worth a visit on a fine day, and you shouldn't forget the Milne Park Conservation area on McCowan. A little drive away, my family have often enjoyed a walk on the Seaton Trail.

We all wish you a Happy Earth Day, no matter what you choose to do. 😍🌎❤️

See you at Crafty Pots, the new name for Color Me Mine Markham👍

Hi everyone, we've now changed our name to Crafty Pots Markham and all future updates will happen on that page. To go there, enter "Crafty Pots Markham" in the search field at the top.
Nothing else changes, studio is still open in the same location, with the same phone number, same hours, same great creative experiences and of course still the best parties in town 😀
The renamed studio is even more fun with more activities like board art coming up. The reason for the name change is that we are no longer a franchised studio, we're a fully local, fully Canadian studio 👍❤️🇨🇦

03/28/2018

So, there's something I have to tell you.. Color Me Mine Markham will soon be no more. WHAAAAT ? NOOOO! I hear you all say. It's true. 👍

On April 1 (and this is no early Aprils Fools Joke) Color Me Mine Markham will become Crafty Pots! Yes, the studio is changing its name to "Crafty Pots" so if you search for the old name it'll appear to be closed, BUT "Crafty Pots Markham" will take its place and is very much open. If you're on the email list, you'll soon get a message from Crafty Pots with news of upcoming events, inviting you to come take part in the fun. We hope to have many of you come along. 😀👍🇨🇦

There are many events and new activities planned and you can always drop in to have a great, creative time as the studio will not close a single day (we're open Good Friday and Easter monday 10-5), the superb staff who help you have a great time will be the same and all booked parties will happen precisely as planned with no disruption or change.

We will continue to honor actual gift cards and discount cards such as the Thank You cards from birthdays from the old studio. Color Me Mine has been a part of our lives and of so many wonderful people from all over Markham and the neighbouring cities for 10 years that it's a little unreal to think we'll not be a part of that great franchise family anymore.

Today is March 14, and we all know what that means, right? 😜
The plate has a riddle relevant to March 14, and if you come paint today, the first two people to correctly solve the riddle will get 25% off ceramics for up to four painters in the same group. (I'll post the answer tomorrow 😀)

Wow Indeed! These dragons and many more are in stock, the shelves are super full and still more is on the way. We're SO ready for March break!

WOW ! I am just going to leave this here for your viewing pleasure.

Is this cool or what! A matching set of the Large Dragons and a lovely Android Box made by a very talented family this evening, took five hour or so (those dragons are BIG).

Mugs, useful mugs, cool mugs, funky mugs, mugs of all shapes and sizes. Sometimes it can be overwhelming to choose between all the hundreds of attractive things on the shelves when all you want is to sit down and catch up with your friends while you paint. There are "only" about 40 different kinds of mugs so if you feel indecisive, just close your eyes and pick one :-) You can't go wrong with a mug :-)

Just check out Zacharys awesome Galaxy/Eye of Sauron mug there :-)

Oh, and on pickup you'll also get a coupon for a free coffee, tea or hot chocolate at The Cats Meow right around the corner from the studio!

It's February already, can you believe it?! Love is definitely in the air. Lots of babies coming in to do some hand and footprints :) Little Alexiah was a joy to have in our studio, lots of smiles and it looked like she didn't mind getting a little messy. All of our paints are water based, non staining and non-toxic

01/18/2018

We're open at 10am for the Friday Jan 19 PA Day and the shelves are full of cool new things to paint. Come on in and don't forget to bring the Discount Family VIP passes you got if you painted during the Winter Break for 10% discount for up to 4 painters. See you tomorrow 😀

Please give us a call at 905 477 0002 to sign up for either day. It'll be a GREAT event. (I'm just happy that we got the two separate shipments today with all the cool emoji things they can paint, there'll be at least 5 different emoji items to choose from)

The Friday Jan 19 event is full! Whoa Dude! Awesome 👍

So many beautiful Christmas items created this season, so I thought it was cool they keep coming even now. These were painted within the last few days, still warm from the kiln they came out of this morning. The Gingerbread plate may just have been painted by a girl named Holli, so it's a great pun. There still time to paint, selection is still great and the studio is warm and cozy. See you at Color Me Mine Markham 😀
