We’re super sad that All Fired Up is saying Goodbye for now to it’s Carytown location.
All Fired Up wrote in an email to customers:
As part of the All Fired Up family, we wanted to update our sweet customers with some news about the future of our company. It is so bittersweet to announce that our Carytown studio will be closing on December 29th. We have been truly blessed to be part of the Carytown community for 18 lovely years. The studio is part of our hearts and always will be, but with each ending of a chapter there is a new beginning. We are looking forward to the opportunities for growth that this move will open for us. I am confident there is an amazing plan that will unfold and we hope to update allour loyal fans on our next steps of growth soon! Until then, we hope you will join us at our Short Pump and Midlothian locations.
Carytown will be open for business as usual until December 22nd. After the 22nd, we will be open for make-and-take projects, sample sales, and pick-ups until December 29th. We would love to see all our familiar faces before the end of the year!
Sincerely,
Amy Talley

Christmas is officially less than eight weeks away, so there is still plenty of time to create gifts that are meaningful, one-of-a-kind, and will be treasured for many years to come. Sound like a tall order? Consider these gift ideas from All Fired Up and be inspired to create a family keepsake that is both functional and beautiful.
1. Handprint Ornaments
Grandparents, Godparents, Aunts, and Uncles – they all have something in common: they LOVE your kids! Time between visits are always too long, and time spent together is never quite long enough.
Give them a gift that will remind them how important they are to you and your children. Create a Christmas ornament from your child’s hand print! Capture this special moment in time, because their hands will never be this small again. Family members and friends will especially love pulling this extra-special ornament out year after year, as they watch your children grow.
All Fired Up has a great Christmas Ornament Special going on now where they will help you get the perfect print in wet clay, and take care of all the painting and firing for you – for only $10 per ornament! Please allow a ten (10) day turn around time for wet clay ornaments.
There will never be another ornament exactly like it, and your friends and family will know it was hand-made, straight from the heart.
2. Themed Cup & Saucer Gifts
We love this idea, because it is so incredibly versatile! Pick something that your loved one enjoys, and theme an entire gift after it. For example, if they have an affinity for tea, buy several different kinds and styles for them to enjoy, and paint them their very own tea-themed cup and saucer they can drink tea from! It could even say something clever like, “Hello, is it TEA you’re looking for?”This idea can be modified for just about anything. Does someone you know really love music? Buy them an iTunes gift card, a pair of concert tickets, and paint the cup & saucer with music notes, or to look like their favorite album cover. (The saucer would look even great painted as a vintage record!) They can study to their favorite jams, and enjoy a cup of hot coffee in their new hand-painted music mug.Okay, so let’s say they’re not really a music lover. What if they have a special place in their heart for the great American sport, Baseball? Paint the cup like an actual baseball (Rawlings inscription, red lacing, and all) and the saucer like a catcher’s mitt! Include some tickets to a local game, some peanuts and cracker jacks, and you’ve got yourself a great themed gift!
3. Give the Gift of Creativity!
So let’s say you’re not what you might call “the artistic type,” but you know someone who is. What better way to celebrate their creativity than to give them free reign to try something new? Gift cards to All Fired Up are a wonderful way for them to explore the exciting worlds of Pottery Painting, Glass Fusing, Wet Clay Building, and Wheel Throwing!]]>
