Help please crafty people of seattle?

my friend’s birthday is coming up soon and im thinking of making her a coffee mug (i dont know why but she likes them and only drinks out of them instead of other types of cups). anyways does anyone know a place in the greater seattle area where i could make a coffee mug for her?
all suggestions are very appreciated!
please and thank you (:

Sometimes a Ren Faire has a potter that will let people use their pottery wheels. You could check that out. Then there are the colleges and universities, they have pottery shows put on by their students, you could buy a one of a kind mug there.

Then there are arts and craft stores that have craft classes that you can pay to participate.

Here are some sites: http://www.handmadepottery.net/seattle-wa/gifts/1077-841/

This one uses molds instead of a pottery wheel: http://www.seattlepotterysupply.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=MMS

Here is a place that offers classes: http://www.potteryschool.com/

Here is another along those same lines: http://bruningpottery.com/

If push comes to shove, some malls have a “pottery shoppe” where the customer brings in a picture of a friend or thing or saying they want put on a mug and the shop will do that for you.

Just some ideas, hope one of them helps.
