Clay cafe in Falls Church - it gets crowded on weekends sometimes but I think you can make an appointment. Several lunch spots nearby too.

There is a place in the same shopping center as the Petsmart in Chantilly.

Clay Cafe Studios in Falls Church.

There is Clay Cafe in Chantilly.

There is also one at Fairfax Corner. Next to Ben & Jerry's and Arhaus.

there is a place in the heart of Fairfax... I think it is "Color Me Mine" or something like that. However, taking a toddler to a place like this might not work out too well. Could I suggest going to Michael's Crafts and getting a paint/pottery kit. It is going to be a lot cheaper and for what you want, it's probably a lot better logisitcally. A toddler in a place with a ton of breakable stuff is not a good mix.

I'd like to take my toddler to pick out a few pieces and paint as gifts. Can anyone recommend a place like this? The closer to Vienna, the better. Thanks!
