know your arts from your elbow

As expected
Situated on the road that has everything (a great pub, a posh curry restaurant, fatty cake shops, naughty cafes and a yummy mummy beauty salon…), Smarty Paints takes advantage of the area’s gazillion children and parents with lots of cash, and offers pottery painting in a nice atmosphere. Pop in and paint just about anything you or your kids can think of and come away with the sort of gifts that will guarantee pocket money from thrilled Grandparents for ever more.
The staff are pleasant and won’t rush fastidious children or spam-fisted adults through their artistic efforts, and you can buy basic refreshments to help you on your way. Slightly pricey, with mummies and daddies who are slightly too pleased with themselves, you’d be advised to attend before the home bell rings – the gaggle of public schools across the road mean that it’s chocker come 4 0’clock. Or, pop in late on a Thursday when Smarty Paints is open until 9pm.
