โโโโ COOLWAVE โโโโ
We do not have air conditioning in our studio. At least not yet. As England continues to become the new Spain, we will likely make that move at some stage.
What we do now is go to the shop early when it's hot. We open the doors and windows, we get our high-powered fans running, and we cool things down. Our new lighting is dimmable and emits no heat, so the studio stays really nice.
We've had several positive comments about how nice it is in the shop -- a great escape from the heat.
So come and see us this weekend. We're

HALF TERM ALERT
Our studio is never more joyously busy with painters than during school breaks.
Twice recently, I have posted advising our lovely customers to book early for the 26th - 29th of May to make sure they can get in for a session.
You can imagine how silly I feel now having learned that our booking system had a glitch preventing anyone from booking any time other than 10 AM for next week ๐๐!!!
EGADS
We have fixed the glitch
You can now book any time available in a rolling window from 10 AM to 3:45 PM -- though many of the 10 AM slots are gone ๐คฃ
Please head over to https://www.collectitapp.com/kiln-time-pottery-studio/book to book your spot for half term. If you tried and thought we were full, we apologize and hope to welcome you.
If you already booked 10 AM because you had no choice, feel free to change your booking via the link in your confirmation email or by contacting us direct.
If you have ANY questions or difficulty booking, just drop us a line.
See you soon!

What a fun week we've just had! ๐
We've hosted a hen party, a local group of Guides, a baby shower, several family bookings, and a Saturday night Paint & Sip! ๐ฅ๐จ
The studio has been full of chilled out creativity and easy smiles. We've seen some amazing keepsakes crafted and really enjoyed meeting many new customers.
Come and see us soon! We've got plenty of space for walk-ins or bookings through Friday (22/5).
Saturday (23/5) is starting to fill up, but you can still get a booking at https://www.collectitapp.com/kiln-time-pottery-studio/book
We'll be CLOSED this Sunday (24/5) and as we normally are on Monday (25/5).
But we will be OPEN on Tuesday (26/5) to welcome painters during half-term.
If history is a guide, we will be super busy 26-31 May, so we recommend booking to make sure you can get in for a session. A few of those days are filling up already, so surf over to https://www.collectitapp.com/kiln-time-pottery-studio/book and grab a table.
Half-term week culminates with a Saturday evening Paint & Sip on 30/5, and we still have seats! Scan the QR or surf over to the link above to get booked in.
The next 2 paint & sip dates (5/6 and 19/6) are sold out with a few people on the waitlist -- don't hesitate to add yourself if you fancy it as people do sometimes need to cancel and we'd love to work you in.
We'll be publishing the next wave of paint & sip dates soon! Watch this space.
We continue to appreciate the time you spend in our studio and can't wait to welcome you whether it's again or for the first time.
See you toon!
