Pottery painting in Bedford. Welcome to a world of opportunities

Where can I paint pottery in Bedford? The Bee&Bottle Ceramics painting studio is here for individual painters, groups and workshops, pop up stands and private events in Bedford and beyond.

Our services bring together craft skills, artistic inspiration and functional creativity; whether you are technically minded or artistic we have an opportunity for you to get involved and love the things you make.

We create brilliant experiences that go beyond decorating a shape. They are a chance, to relax, connect and experiment, as well as create something unique that you will love.

We help you to release your ideas, and then fire them for you to keep forever

Our Sessions
We run sessions from a number of hand picked venues, and from our Oakley studio base. Sessions are varied in focus, from children's fun painting, seasonal inter-generational and family meet ups, to relaxing adult sip and paint evenings.
We also can be booked for private sessions, events and parties and will travel to a venue of your choice for your event or gathering, and can provide painting for up to 50 people per session.
Pre scheduled sessions are available to book through our website. We want you to love what we create; we provide full instruction offering both beginner advice and technical tips and support for all ability levels, we love to see what people enjoying our sessions create.
