I had a fantastic experience with Tennyson Studio. From the moment I arrived, Ticky was warm, welcoming, and highly professional. The studio is beautifully presented, clean, and has a relaxed atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Ticky took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and helped me deliver results that exceeded my expectations. Nothing felt rushed, and the customer service was exceptional throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Tennyson Studio to anyone whether you’re a beginner like me or been ceramic painting for years looking, it was a wonderful overall experience. I will definitely be returning!

I had such a wonderful time creating my charcuterie ceramic board. Ticky was incredibly knowledgeable and made the whole experience enjoyable with her relaxed, easy-going style. She explained each step clearly, offered helpful guidance, and created a fun, welcoming atmosphere where we felt comfortable. I learned so much and can’t wait to see the completed piece after it comes out of the kiln. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking for a creative and enjoyable experience!
