The Hot Spot Studios - Springfield, TN

Tuesday is looking pretty good from where we’re standing. 🔥✨

A fresh kiln unload, shelves full of finished pieces, and a studio buzzing with creativity… we’d call that a win.

Every unload is a reminder that the best part of what we do isn’t the pottery. It’s seeing your ideas, memories, and imagination come to life. Thanks for giving us a front-row seat to all of it. ❤️

✨ One of our favorite things about The Hot Spot is getting to welcome groups from all over Robertson County into the studio!

🤍💚We’ll be closing a little early on Tuesday, 6/16 at 4:30 PM to host the amazing Greenbrier Showstoppers for a private event. 💚🤍

We’ll be back to our regular hours on Thursday from 10 AM to 7 PM. See you then! 💚✨

It’s hot outside… but this kiln unload might be giving the Tennessee summer a run for its money. 🔥☀️

Fresh out of the kiln and hotter than ever, these pieces are bringing all the bright colors, creativity, and happy summer vibes.

Good news: you can enjoy this kind of heat in the air conditioning and come make your own magic!! 😉

Meet the Owners ✨

We are Chrissy and Jackson Hinners and we met when we were twelve years old. Some of our earliest dates were spent painting pottery together, and if you look around the studio, you’ll still find some of those pieces on the shelves as samples. Chrissy’s family is originally from Springfield, and when our littles started to get older, we knew we wanted to get out of the Nashville hustle and slow life down a bit here in Robertson County.

When we opened The Hot Spot, our hope was simple: create a place for everyone. Every age. Every budget. Every skill level. Every friend group, family outing, celebration, and date night. Springfield deserved a place where people could gather, create, and simply be together.

If we’re honest, one of our biggest fears was that we were trying to fit our dream into a space that didn’t need us.

Boy, were we wrong.

Since opening, you’ve welcomed us with open arms. You’ve brought paper towels when we needed them, batteries when we forgot them, stickers that made us belly laugh, and stories that have made this place so much more than a business.

You’ve trusted us with birthday parties, wedding plates, memorial pieces, handprints, footprints, and memories that will last a lifetime.

At the heart of it all, we believe everyone belongs. Whether you have an art degree or are struggling with the masking tape, we’re here to cheer you on and help you find the good in your art. Some of our favorite moments aren’t seeing the finished piece. They’re watching the laughter, conversations, and memories happen along the way.

Thank you, Springfield, for sharing life with us.

The Hot Spot isn’t just a pottery studio.

It’s family. ❤️

And if these first few weeks are any indication, we’re going to need a lot more shelves. 😉

We’re just getting started.

And just like that… kiln unload #2 is here! ✨

Twice in one day and we’re still standing around admiring every piece like proud parents. 😍

From bright summer colors to thoughtful gifts for Dad, this week’s creations have us smiling from ear to ear. Thank you for keeping our kiln full and our jobs so much fun. ❤️🔥
