🎨 Unleash your creativity at All Fired Up: Winter Park’s go-to pottery painting studio

WINTER PARK, Fla. – If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at pottery painting, All Fired Up in Winter Park is the perfect place to start. This paint-your-own pottery studio invites visitors of all ages to pick from a wide variety of pieces — from plates and mugs to bowls and seasonal designs — and turn them into personalized works of art.

“Right when you walk in, you head over to the pottery area, and you have tons of pieces to choose from. They change all the time, so there’s always something for everyone,” explained Madison Martinez, the studio manager.

Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned painter, the team offers a helpful paint tutorial to get you started.

One of the studio’s coolest features is the variety of painting techniques you can try. From marbling — their most popular and easy method — to bubbles, lace, ombré, and splatter effects, there’s something for every style. Plus, if you want to paint intricate designs like your favorite sports team logo or your pet’s face, transfer paper makes tracing simple and fun.

Madison shares, “It’s kind of like paint-by-numbers. You trace the design, then fill in the colors.”

During my visit, I got hands-on experience painting a holiday-themed plate using transfer paper. The staff guided me through the process, reminding me to paint light colors first and then add darker details on top for the best results. After painting, you leave your piece with the studio, where it’s glazed and fired in-house using three kilns. In about five days, your pottery is ready to pick up — smooth, shiny, and ready to use or display.

All Fired Up is also BYOB friendly, so you can bring your own drinks and snacks to enjoy while you paint. It’s a popular spot for birthday parties, team-building events, school field trips, and even offsite events where the studio comes to you.

“We get lots of families, grandparents with grandkids, college kids, and couples on date night. It’s a fun, slow-paced way to unwind,” Madison notes.

With two locations — Winter Park and Waterford Lakes — All Fired Up offers flexible hours and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for a creative outing with friends or a unique way to celebrate, this studio makes pottery painting accessible, fun, and memorable.
