Color Me Mine Reports Strong Mid-Year Growth
Color Me Mine, the premier paint-your-own pottery franchise, has announced substantial growth as it wraps up the first half of 2025.

With over 130 locations operating throughout the United States and in international markets, Color Me Mine is solidifying its reputation as a leader in the Art-as-Entertainment sector, offering patrons a unique, hands-on pottery painting experience.
New Studio Expansions
In the first half of 2025 alone, Color Me Mine celebrated the opening of seven new studios, including three in Texas, with plans for even more growth.

Looking ahead, Color Me Mine aims to expand further with fourteen additional studios scheduled to open in the latter half of the year, targeting two new states, Renton, Washington, and Las Cruces, New Mexico. These new openings signal a strong demand for the Creative Studio experience that Color Me Mine provides.
Enhancements Across the Franchise System
The brand has not only focused on studio openings but has also implemented various enhancements to support new and existing franchisees. Key initiatives include revamping the onboarding and training programs, alongside investment in digital marketing strategies to reach more customers. A new customer relationship management (CRM) system has been introduced to streamline studio operations, ensuring that guest experiences are elevated across the board.
“Reflecting on our progress, we’re truly impressed with the trajectory we’re on in 2025,” stated Teresa Johnson, CEO of Color Me Mine. “Our growth is not just about numbers but about the passionate franchise owners who are committed to enriching their communities with Color Me Mine experiences.” Many of the newly successful studios have been launched by individuals who have joined the franchise in less than a year, underscoring the effectiveness of the improved training and support systems.
