Watch: We visit the Flying Saucers painting pottery cafe in Bristol and try our hand at painting a mug

Flying Saucers is a painting pottery cafe in Byron Place, just off The Triangle in Bristol’s Clifton area.

It runs classes and parties for all ages, from toddlers to adults, and is especially popular as a birthday party venue or school groups.

Bristol’s only dedicated painting pottery cafe, it welcomes people of all artistic abilities, from beginners to more experienced artists.

The items you paint are professionally glazed and fired, and then you collect them within a week.

Emma May Jones went along to try her hand at painting a mug. Watch the video to see how she got on - and whether to was good enough to give to her granny as a new year gift.
