There's no email or price adjusting either. If I hadn't caught it, they would have let me pay more for a smaller planter. I wonder how many people they have overcharged who didn't catch it!

Love, love love this store! Selection is phenomenal, and I had several options for the lined…read morejournal I was looking for and finally found here (I've looked in a few places trying to find the Right One). Several different options from covers, lined, unlined, dotted, smaller/closer lines vs more widely ruled.... I have tiny handwriting, especially with my better, more fine tipped pens I prefer to journal with, so finding a closely ruled journal I like isn't always easy. The wrapping paper options were also lovely, and the selection of items around the shop for not only journaling and book themed things was great, unusual but often undervalued items. My friend finally found more reusable makeup rounds, complete with their own storage bag, after she's been looking for a few months to replace the ones she's had and used for years but are starting to show some definite wear. The cashier and person assisting with stocking were both friendly and helpful without being pushy/overly involved (ALWAYS appreciated as an introvert!). I found not only the perfect journal for my preferences but also picked up a small craft project and both were very fair in price.

Came in just to browse. They are located on the lower level next door to Francesca's and Hyppo…read more They have a lot of gifting items. And walls of wrapping paper options-- a wall for more birthday and every day type wrapping and another wall for wedding type wrapping. The store is actually bigger than I originally thought. So many nice things. A bit pricey, FYI. We will definitely be back in to browse some more when in the area.

My girlfriend and a few of her friends met up at Birdette's for her birthday and had a great time…read more They were given a craft menu where you can choose what you want to do and pay per project. There's a collage bar that one friend used for scrapbooking. They purchased some kits including a Crosstitch kit, embroidery kit, and hand sewing kit. Painting kits were also available. All extra supplies that you might need are provided. One criticism is it was on the pricey side but worth it for the activity, and nothing unreasonable. The person who I believe was the owner was VERY helpful in all aspects! In terms of snacks, they have hot tea available or some canned drinks and chips for purchase. It was a lot of fun and music to set a great vibe.

There was no preparation before hand so the wax was not melted when it came time to pour. We had to wait while it melted. We ended up leaving without our candles.

I bought a Groupon for a shattered glass art workshop. The description on the website states…read more"explore techniques to enhance texture, color and depth". I emailed the studio and was instructed to come to an open studio session. It was free style. The staff was polite, but it is not a workshop. I thought I would learn the craft, including how to mix resin. If I had known that it is studio time with supplies added I would have found a picture, sketched it at home on my own 11x14 canvas (which is $15 extra) and brought in other media to complete my project. Example: twigs and leaves brought from home and make glass birds to sit on the branch. I know they don't make much off of Groupon, but I use Groupon to try new places, not for the cheap deal. A true workshop would have resulted in my repeat business.

I purchased a 5-week class to learn how to make a 11" x" stained glass art. There was a Groupon…read morespecial for $20... What a bargain! This is for use of the studio, equipment and instructions. Note that you will need to pay extra for consumable materials such as glass (that you select), homasote board, solder, solutions (ex., patina), zinc came, etc. Don't be surprised if you lay out about $175+ for these extra materials (depending on your chosen glass). You will spend a minimum of 5 weeks to complete your project. I work fast, even taking some activities to do at home, and it took me 8 weeks (I did a 61-piece project). Other attendees will take 12 weeks or more, based on their abilities. The good thing is that the studio will not charge you extra for additional weeks. They will support you as many weeks as needed until you finish. If you are not the crafty type, pick "easier" patterns that require less/bigger glass pieces. Cody and helper Steve were super instructors. They provided help at every step, demonstrating what to do and how, then allowing you to try and be proficient at it. They were patient, and always willing to answer questions or step in when needed. I loved the class so much, and learned enough that I have invested in my own equipment to do more as my new hobby. (Equipment can be purchase in the studio.) I am hooked! Thanks so much Cody and Steve!

I was fortunate to attend these classes with my son. Cody and staff are patient while you learn…read more Students are at different steps in the process, so you also learn from each other. I would recommend participating with a friend or family member, so that you can share purchased supplies. This did take me 12 classes to complete, so plan on it taking you 9 or more classes to complete your piece. The supplies required are purchased as needed each week. Tools are provided as part of the class. I would budget $300 to complete your piece, $250 if sharing supplies (glass, glue, solder, flux, frame etc..). I would recommend buying an extra piece of practice glass to work on glass cutting before trying to cut your project glass. I would also spend a little more money on your favorite glass colors and textures. My glass for my butterfly was more expensive, but it made my project and I love it! You will learn new skills each week and have fun!

The frame was scratched and the matting had one ink stain and another stain near the name plate that I'm not sure what it is. I paid for it anyway because I felt sorry for the elderly woman who is the office manager. When I pointed out the stain and scratch, she used a pencil eraser on the stain( made it worse) and tried to rub out the scratch with a lead pencil tip. I told her to stop. They just don't seem to be up to today's standards. Anyway, they are very nice. I just wish I had listened to my gut feeling when I first walked in there!

I was NOT disappointed! It was like Oldtime Pottery and Michaels on steroids. It took me almost 90 minutes to browse everything. They have the most beautiful and unique dining tables and bedroom sets. I didn't know they even had furniture. I thought it was for just for smaller home decor. You can find something for any season or holiday you want to decorate for. It was hard not to buy everything I loved. I will be making a yearly trip just to visit here. Downtown Plant City is very quaint with lots of antique shops to browse also.
