My boyfriend and I were visiting New Hampshire and had nothing to do on a rainy day. Luckily a local told us about the creation place and we went there immediately. We had so much fun and the owner was very knowledgeable and made this such an easy process! We were only visiting for the weekend but thankfully she offered shipping so we could get our pieces shipped. They took about 3 weeks but it sure was worth the wait! If we’re ever back we’ll be sure to paint some more pottery here.

As another year comes to a close I’m reminded of how grateful I am for the women in small businesses, who excel at not only the services they provide but also at how they deliver those services!

Chris Donovan owner and artisan at The Creation Place has for the fourth straight year guided and taught me across several domains from ceramics to hand building in stoneware.

She’s a qualified instructor who breaks down the science of the multiple processes. She’s talented and was very accommodating to me, especially through the pandemic.

Chris has been committed to teaching me what I needed to know to have the best results - and this is a good thing!

My experience with The Creation Place is that it is friendly, dynamic and filled with treasures. The number of quality glazes is endless. It’s a great place for me to go to relax and have some fun!

The Creation Place is one of my most favorite places.

Perfect place to take kids or go on date. If you want to pick up a kit to paint at home make sure you give them a day or two notice. I’d also recommend calling ahead to let them know how many people will be painting just incase there’s a class or anything else going on. Absolutely love it!

My first visit was only a few weeks ago…(I’m a newbie to the pottery painting world) and I’ve been in THREE times now in 3 weeks! Christine is a wealth of knowledge and very patient as she helped me learn the process. She was full of ideas and suggestions to help get the creative juices flowing! I can’t tell you how much I have thoroughly enjoyed my time creating many beautiful gifts for family and friends. Christine has made this experience so enjoyable I plan to return MANY more times!

Had at great time at the Creation Place! Christine, the owner, showed us everything we needed to know to decorate our pieces. We each tried different techniques. The studio is very clean & comfortable. Best of all, our pieces came out great! Really beautiful and durable!

Love the pieces made at The Creation Place LLC! Gorgeous and functional! From my morning cup of coffee to an afternoon snack, I’m enjoying the beauty and use of the stoneware. The time, energy, creativity and care that goes into each piece is meaningful. You have a great family friendly business, Christine! Thank you.

My bestie & I have been frequent flyers of Tip Top Pottery for over a decade and were excited when we learned about the Creation Place because it was closer to home, but honestly the vibe is always negative. We are sternly told what to do, the lady always acts like it is a bother that we are even there and there is literally no inspirational or creative vibe at all! The selection of pieces to paint are more limited than Tip Top and the negative energy has been experienced all 3 times we've been. We gave the benefit of the doubt because last time was during COVID, but this recent time wasn't any better even in the new location. It's to bad because literally every bowl in my cupboard for the past 10 years has been hand Painted by me or my daughter, nevermind countless Mugs, platters and gifts, but going forward, we will be returning to Tip Top Pottery for a better experience.
