Pottery painting allows artists to reliably tag and track the migratory patterns of plates and jugs when they're released into craft-fair jungles and bear-cave cupboards. Make dish discoveries with today's Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of paint-your-own pottery and studio time at Glazed Bisque-It.

People of all ages are warmly welcomed into Glazed Bisque-It's ceramic chateau to personalize porcelain pieces of art. The studio fee is $8 for adults and $6 for children, and it includes access to paints, brushes, stencils, and rubber stamps to help aspiring artists channel their restless creativity reserves onto porous bowls and vases. Select from more than 200 pieces of ready-to-paint pottery, also known as bisques, not to be confused with the type of soup, or Bossk, the Trandoshan bounty hunter who was hired to track down Han Solo. Spruce up monochromatic china cabinets with a bright salad plate ($12) or dinner plate ($14), or fortify in-home savings and loans with a porcine bank vault ($18). Completed projects will be glazed and fired by Glazed Bisque-It's studio specialists and, in about a week, your piece should be ready to take home.
