Color Me Mine - Calgary, Alberta

Nice selection of pottery to paint, though it’s a bit pricey. Staff were attentive. I had issues with the pin bottles clogging repeatedly as well as colours being out of order. Very easy points to overlook . My main frustration is with the final glaze — my piece came out covered in bubbles, along with a few black dots that weren’t part of the design. When I asked about the bubbles, the staff just said, “it’s just the glaze,” but I know that’s not typical for well-applied glaze. I’m disappointed with the end result as this piece was designed for my child’s birthday. A piece I intend to use every year to build memories.

Great service! I surprised my girlfriend with mugs at home with a paint night and she absolutely loved it.

It was very easy to paint them and they turned out great!

We had my daughter’s bday last week and it was awesome! Everything was organized and prepared before we arrived!

The kids had so much fun along with the adults. Everyone got the help they needed right away!

The owner and the assistant did an amazing job!!

The ceramics came out beautiful. Attached my daughter’s seahorse

Thanks again

Great place for families. They have a good variety of items to paint as well as lots of seasonal options. Friendly helpful staff makes the experience that much more enjoyable given we are not a very artistic family.

Me and my boyfriend went here for my birthday recently and while there the man who was working was fine to begin with but after about an hour of us being there he stopped coming to change our water. for the next 3 hours that we were there we had the same dirty brown water and the brown water colour started to get onto our pieces as we were working on them. We had run out of time that day so we ended up coming back a few days later to finish our pieces and again our water was only changed once, when for that first hour we were there prior he had changed the water about five times before ignoring us. instead he just sat at the desk on his laptop the whole time. then just today I went to go pick up our pieces and when checking mine over I noticed a rather large chip in it. when I mentioned it was chipped the very first thing that came out of the mans mouth was "well I didn't hit it on anything." which for itself is pretty telling that he did in fact hit it on something. he then tried blaming the chip on me not painting the pottery properly and saying I must of missed a spot which isn't true because you can clearly feel a chunk is missing from where its chipped. I will probably not be ever returning to color me mine because after spending that much money on a pottery piece and then spending over 8 hours on painting it I would expect the staff to actually take care of the pieces and have more consideration to the customers and less of an attitude at that as well.

TLDR: poor customer service, over priced, and after over 8 hours of painting the staff chipped my piece and blamed it on me.

Great customer service and fantastic pottery selection.
Not only that but they have a great array of pottery paints and other additions such as gems, glass, beads and more for your pottery needs.

Fine experience, but personally I would recommend going to the canyon meadows colour me mine instead. This location had a smaller selection of items to paint, a smaller selection of paints & glazes, does not offer the glass mosaics, the prices seemed a little bit higher..

Recently visited the McKenzie Town location. I had a great experience. The items can be expensive, but you get to choose what piece you want to paint so ultimately you get to decide how much you spend. I had a great experience with the worker and the paints. Great explanation on how to find the right colours, keep track of paint numbers, and different paint texture options. This is a small local business and I recommend everyone try it at least once. For other reviews and their comments, the workers can’t read your mind so if you’re willing to ask for help on finding an affordable item or help with paint water I have full confidence they will help you find a solution…
