Extremely disorganized business with a shockingly unprofessional owner. We registered and paid in…read moreadvance, but when we arrived, they had completely botched our enrollment due to their own administrative errors. Instead of apologizing or trying to fix it, the owner became incredibly defensive, hostile, and rude. They do not take accountability for their mistakes and lack basic customer service skills. I have heard that the place has gone downhill since the change in ownership and now I completely understand why. Very unfortunate for our small community.

We've been loyal customers of Mimi's Crafts for over 20 years, visiting regularly with my…read morehandicapped mother and aunt, who have always enjoyed painting keepsakes together during visits. Sadly, since the new ownership took over, the experience has drastically gone downhill. On their most recent visit, they were told--quite abruptly--that moving forward they would only be allowed to come in twice per piece, and that painting must be completed within six months of purchase. This was never a policy before, and the way it was communicated felt aggressive and unwelcoming. Disheartened by the interaction, they decided it would be their last time visiting Mimi's. To make matters worse, when they were called to say their pieces had finished firing, they were informed one of them had broken--without a hint of an apology. The only "resolution" offered was a gift card for the original value or nothing at all. When they went to pick up what was left of the piece, the owner was present and still didn't offer a single apology. This is not the kind of customer service or family-friendly environment we used to know and love. It's deeply disappointing to see such a treasured place become so unaccommodating and indifferent toward long-time customers. We will be taking our business--and our loyalty--to one of the many other paint-your-own studios in the area that still prioritize kindness, flexibility, and community. And when leaving a review on google to express these issues, it felt like we were responded to with a chatgpt answer, because it wasn't even being addressed to the correct person. Which felt even more impersonal.

I have visited Betsy's Art Studio several times and have had such a great creative time. I choose…read moreto do a stitching project following Betsy's guidance and I love what I was able to do.

Girls night! My mother-in-law and I took the resin charcuterie board class at Seaside Creative Art…read moreStudio and had such a wonderful time! The instructor was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful, making sure we were happy with our designs every step of the way. Even if you're new to working with resin, everything is explained clearly and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. Because the resin needs time to cure, boards are picked up at least 24 hours later. We haven't picked ours up yet, but we're already excited to see how they turned out based on how great the experience was. They also offer a wide variety of other classes, including acrylic and oil painting, paint pours, and more. We'll definitely be back to try another class--highly recommend for a fun, creative outing!

Highly recommend!!! I took my daughter and her friend to Cocoa Beach to learn how to surf and we…read morehappened upon this studio right behind Ron Jon Surf School. WOW, we are lucky we did. We met the owner (Jeannie), who was so nice and scheduled a private session for the three of us right after our surfing and before our bioluminescent kayaking. The studio has so much incredible artwork. Jeannie invited us to walk around and pick ideas of what we wanted to do. She prepped the canvases and everything while we surfed. When we returned for our lesson, Jeannie had everything set up for us and taught us how to paint a beach scene with grassy dunes, palm trees, and a dolphin jumping out of the water. All of us were impressed with what we were able to do, and came home with lasting painting techniques. When we were done, I was trying to decide how to get the paintings home since I prefer to carry on our luggage, and Jeannie offered to mail them to us. When they arrived, they came with an extra painting kit she gave us. I am SO SO SO thrilled that we stumbled upon this. Highly recommend!!! Oh, also--Jeannie is a cardiac nurse. She got into this by helping her patients recover by helping them through art. Incredible woman with an incredible story. Memorable experience for sure.
