Paint, Fire, Keep: Party in a Box Pottery Kits from Colour My Pot in Cleveland

On the edge of Moreton Bay in Cleveland, Queensland, Party in a Box brings pottery painting out of the studio and into your living room. Colour My Pot’s kit turns an ordinary celebration into hands-on maker time for up to ten painters, with themed bisque pieces, paints, brushes, name labels and a QR code linking short video tutorials.

Collect the box from Colour My Pot in Cleveland, spread a disposable table cover, and watch a simple setup become the focus of a birthday, family gathering, or school holiday session. The included tutorials walk painters through basic underglaze techniques, simple masking and layering, and tips for consistent brush strokes—skills that show up when the pieces come back glazed and kiln-fired. Small kids can focus on color and shape; older painters can try pattern repeats or sgraffito. Labels keep everyone’s pieces organized for return.

What makes this offering special for the bayside community is its combination of accessibility and permanence. Unlike a paper craft or a blowout party activity, these painted pieces are converted to ceramic keepsakes. Colour My Pot handles glazing and a high-temperature firing process that bonds underglazes into durable, glossy finishes—so your child’s plate or your friend’s mug becomes a functional object you’ll use for years.

The experience maps neatly onto a day in Cleveland: grab coffee at a local cafe, spend an afternoon painting indoors (ideal when the bay breeze is sticky), then take a walk at Cleveland Point or G.J. Walter Park while pieces dry. Moreton Bay’s shorebirds and sweeping views give a quick nature interlude between coats of paint and packing up for return.

Practical details matter: the box accommodates ten painters and the recommended session time is two hours, but painters often spend longer with layered designs. Painted pieces must dry fully, be repacked in supplied packaging and returned to Colour My Pot within seven days for glazing and firing. Finished pottery will be held for collection and is ready to become a practical memento or a thoughtful, handcrafted gift.

Party in a Box is a low-stress host solution that still encourages conversation, experimentation and collaboration. Families, school groups and small social gatherings will appreciate how the kit reduces prep and cleanup while elevating the end result: real ceramics fired to last. Whether you’re planning a birthday, a rainy-day activity, or a take-home souvenir after exploring Moreton Bay, this one-box creative ritual leaves tangible memories you can actually set the table with.

The business's QR tutorials demystify glaze choices and brushwork, and staff at Colour My Pot can advise on glazing effects at collection—matte, gloss, or speckled finishes—making each finished object feel intentional. Bring a camera: the before-and-after is genuinely satisfying for friends and family.
