Paint Crumbles Trees

If you haven't seen this yet, prepare to be amazed. Have you ever wondered what happens to all of the leftover paint in your palette after painting at The Painted Pig? Sometimes, we scoop it back into the bottle. But if there are colors that have mixed together, then those palettes are dumped onto a special plate of leftover paint to dry and harden into crumbles. 

We then use those paint crumbles to create incredible, one-of-a-kind pieces. After fired, crumbles have a thick, glassy, marbleized look - and you never know what colors you are going to get! 

 

Isn't the transformation amazing? We have pre-painted and available at the store right now! $45 for the platters, $10 to add personalization. 

Paint crumbles are also available for your own projects... the only requirements are that the piece be flat and that you paint the entire piece of pottery before using the crumbles. Easy enough!

Christmas Deadline: December 8

Goodness gracious, it's that time already - the Christmas deadline to paint your own pottery or order custom pottery at The Painted Pig is THIS Thursday, December 8. What does that mean exactly?
  • Painting or ordering your pottery by December 8 ensures that it will be ready for pick up by Christmas Eve.

  • We DO offer the option to pay a rush fee for items painted after the deadline to be ready for pick up by Christmas Eve.

  • We have tons of awesome pre-painted pottery for sale as gifts! And almost anything can be personalized with a name and a year for a small fee. 
All pre-painted platters can be customized for $10.

We have a HUGE variety of pre-painted ornaments! Customization is $5.

  • Mosaics and silver jewelry have no Christmas deadline! These projects can be taken home the day they are started in the store. You can walk in the store and make mosaics anytime. However, an appointment is necessary for making silver jewelry. December 9th and 10th we are offering a CHRISTMAS SPECIAL on silver jewelry... see here for details. 

So remember - if you want to pick up your pottery without a rush fee by Christmas Eve, come in by THIS THURSDAY, December 8 to paint. But don't worry if you don't make it in this week because there are still TONS of gifts and activities available for Christmas at The Painted Pig past the 8th! We look forward to seeing you!
