I found this off-putting and is exactly the reason I won't be back. There are plenty of options to chose from! And while fun, the employee we dealt with kinda sucked the fun out for us. She ended up seeming annoyed with our questions. It's important to note that if you choose to paint pottery you will not be able to take it home that day. So if you do not live in or close to Pflugerville, I'd choose a different project. One person with us did choose pottery and it ended up being a huge inconvenience to get back to Pflugerville.

There are a-lot of great options for families, children, and even if you are looking for an intimate date night. Rasheeda & Ali helped us pick out our pottery from a wide variety of sculptures. They let us take our time, we never felt rushed, they even gave us step by step instructions on how to do anything and everything we wanted before we started. The turn around to pick up your art is pretty fast as well. The music and the ambiance were delightful. You can bring food and wine respectfully and they provide the proper utensils for your party as well. Overall it was a 10/10 & we will be coming back .

I think it's really hard not to leave with something. Parking was a b!tch, not gonna lie but after we circled the block, we got one. The place is huge and I was actually really impressed with each artist's area. The bazaar does a really special job of merchandising the wares in a way that makes them stand out and feel special. The place was packed and while I didn't need anything, I'm planning on going back on Christmas Eve to get some Austin keepsakes since this is my last year in the state. I am on a no buy this year but I would easily find all my gifts here and some for myself too. I bought some nail polish since I'm a nail technician but was introduced to some amazing brands that I can buy any time.

I had such a great experience at Feats of Clay! From the moment I walked in, the studio felt…read morewelcoming, creative, and really well put together. Everything was clean and organized, which made it easy to just relax and focus on learning. The instructor was fantastic--super patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging. I came in with zero experience, but they explained everything step-by-step and made the whole process feel approachable. Even when my piece started off a little rough, they helped me turn it into something I was actually proud of. Using the pottery wheel was definitely the highlight. It's a bit challenging at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's incredibly fun and even a little therapeutic. The class was paced perfectly, so I never felt rushed and had plenty of time to practice. The atmosphere was another big plus. Everyone was friendly, and it felt more like a relaxed, creative hangout than a formal class. It made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Glazing the pieces was such a fun final step, and seeing the finished product after firing was so satisfying. I honestly didn't expect to end up with something I'd actually want to keep--but I love it! Highly recommend Feats of Clay for anyone looking to try something new, de-stress, or just have a fun, creative experience. I'll definitely be back!

Whether you are trying hand building or wheel throwing, there are a variety of options available from one time lessons and workshops to 6 week classes and studio memberships. Everyone at Feats has been kind, encouraging, and helpful. No matter your skill level you will feel welcomed and supported. They recently revamped their website to make pottery pickup more seamless which is a huge plus. There is only a couple parking spots out front but plenty of street parking only a 3 min walk away. If you have ever wanted to try pottery I highly recommend checking out Feats of Clay!

It is not super big but it makes great use of the space it has tons of pre loved books, stickers, various gifts, oracle and Tarot cards, witches candles and so much more. SHANA SAYS: Super cute atmosphere, fun organizing of the books like pre loved, and lots of cute gift items. Plus a cat with its own hours! Kathy was super friendly and helpful. Made the whole experience better and is a genuine person. They do have a game room and a snack bar with free water as well as a keuring and snacks for sale. The bathroom is for everyone and they are very welcoming. Of course as an independent bookstore they have a wide variety of titles with some new books thrown in. They do mystery sells and bundles where you get a vague description of a book that is covered up and you take a chance. It should go without saying but as you are supporting local businesses the prices are a little higher the HPB or Amazon but it means more here and you should buy local when you can. I highly recommend this place. They even have a section where if you spend $50 you get to choose a free gift from books to sunglasses to other items. Go in, say hi to Kathy and The Cat!

What a wonderfully weird place! I was looking for a local bookstore that was close to my hotel and…read morewould let me explore a little. The Book Burrow did the trick! I will start with the "downsides" (as few as they are). This place is pretty small. Like smaller than I thought. Because of this, its not the greatest place for browsing. They had some "witch" stuff which was interesting, but I was looking for a book. Also, most of the books are used which isn't terrible, but not exactly clear. As for the positives, this place is a true small business so you really get the personal touch when it comes to service. I also picked this place because it did a "blind book" service where they will pick out a book or two for you based on your description. A bunch of bookstores do this, but the Book Burrow understood the assignment exactly. They got me THREE books and all of them were PERFECT. I was surprised how they found my vibe and found me unique books! They also wrapped it in a beautiful paper and addressed it to me! It was like a little birthday gift to myself! As you can tell, I was very floored by the selections. This is the small business of small businesses so I am so HAPPY that I was able to stop by! While the place is small and their selection is in flux, I really appreciated the personal touch from the staff at The Book Burrow.

A05 gallery features work from a variety of artists in so many mediums. Dr. Seuss collection is one of their consistently highlighted pieces. In addition, they also have a Disney section. The key thing I like most about this art gallery is the uniqueness of the pieces - from African inspired pieces to Austin-centric pieces. There are works of art portrait-like to many items that are abstract, my personal favorite pieces of art. Today, I wanted to see if they had any lacquered pieces. The ones on display were of Marilyn Monroe and Madonna. Not sure I want to view these ladies every day... Smile. It was great to see Todd again, the manager of the store. He reminded me that they were open 7 days a week and that they had more pieces online. Todd is always so pleasant to talk to. Another joyful aspect of visiting A05 gallery is that you do not have any high-pressure salespeople putting you in a chokehold trying to sell you something. Some of their art pieces are quite pricey, and some very affordable. Net, net, I love frequenting this gallery.
