paint your own @ robert gordon pottery
Robert Gordon Pottery – Paint Your Own (Pakenham) is a lovely hands-on activity for the whole family, tucked inside the already-cool warehouse store. Choose a plate, mug, teapot or even a duck, then paint away using gentle, absorbent paints that work beautifully even for little hands. You can let kids go wild or create a special handprint keepsake, with all pieces kiln-fired to be food- and dishwasher-safe. Pick up your finished masterpiece around two weeks later—personal, practical, and perfect for gifting.
