Everything to Know About Paint & Sip

Carina's craft party option is a working potter's home studio on Olinda Street. Glen Wardle has worked with clay since 1991 and keeps his groups small, so first-timers get hands-on help the whole way through.

What a private session at Glen Wardle Ceramics involves:

  • The pottery sip and paint runs for two hours, and each guest decorates two pieces while trivia with prizes keeps the table busy.
  • Pottery painting starts from $85 per person, and every quote is shaped by the activities and extras a group picks.
  • Beyond painting, groups can try the wheel, hand building, candle or soap making, resin pouring and alcohol ink art.
  • Snacks and soft drinks are supplied, and anything stronger is BYO.
  • Private events are for guests aged 18 and over, which suits hens, birthdays, Christmas gatherings and team days.

Pieces go through the kiln after the party and are ready to pick up around 7 to 10 days later.

Mixing crafts on Olinda Street

  • A group can stay with one activity or combine a couple, such as painting followed by a turn on the wheel.
  • Resin pouring and alcohol ink give non-potters a quicker, less messy option in the same session.
  • Soap and candle making suit a gift-making afternoon, with something useful to take home.
  • Because Glen teaches every group himself, classes stay small and personal rather than run as a production line.

Extras a Carina studio party can add

  • Catering can be arranged so the group isn't relying only on the supplied snacks.
  • Decorations and games with prizes turn a birthday or hens session into more of a party.
  • A professional photographer can be booked to capture the group at work.
  • Slushy and fairy floss machines and a magic show are on the extras list too.
