Initially I was very excited to take a 4 week pottery class because it was a hobby I have been…read morethinking about trying for a long time but my experience here has honestly dampened my interest in pursuing pottery further I'm unsure if it's typical protocol but essentially the instructor would do one tutorial and then let the class figure it out from there. He would then focus on his own pieces instead of checking on how to students were doing. The classes rarely started on time because the instructor would be eating their late lunch and would consistently forget what he taught us the previous week. Because there was poor time management, we would be working on pieces and then 15 minutes before the class would end, we would be told we have to start cleaning up so everyone would rush to finish what they were doing Because there was barely any hands on instruction, I was constantly watching online videos from other pottery instructors before class to teach myself the tips I was missing from my own instructor The studio also lacked a proper storage system, so every single week we came in, our pieces were in a different place which made it extremely difficult to find our work -- I lost a few pieces because of this The overall experience has been so disappointing and a waste of time and money - if you are serious about making pottery a hobby, I would suggest looking for a different pottery studio

I feel like I might sound like a Karen right now, but I left the place feeling dissatisfied with…read moremy experience with their candle making class 1. Cost is $63 p/person. However there are several additional and unexpected cost, a $10 or $12 fee to upgrade your container, the one included is very small. Once you upgrade to a more decent container there is a $10 fee for extra wax, $1 fee to dye your wax, $1 per dried rose buds, $1 for 5 small stones ( smaller than an ant size), and $1 for 3 small wax charms. (3 charms included in the original fee) 2. The class is advertised as one hour long, but after pouring the wax into the container you have to wait one hour for the wax to harden to add your decorations. The employee said we can leave and come back, but we opted to stay. Total time: approx 2 hrs 3. The music is not child appropriate. They were playing an Ariana Grande album with explicit lyrics, including the 34+35 song where she repeatedly sings "fuck me all night" . It was uncomfortable hearing that type of music with children around. In addition, the scent selection included: Sex on the Beach. Which i didn't like when my child asked innocently "i wonder what sex smells like." 4. There was a daycare or maybe a summer camp and there were several kids who were horse playing and being loud . Now Im all for summer camps and i understand kids are having fun but for them to be in the same area as the candle making area made the experience a bit chaotic. The employee did ask them to quiet down, and eventually another employee moved them to another location. 5. There a large scent selection, however most of them smelled unpleasant. The employee was nice, and offered a free rose bud and a free wax charm. Overall, I would not recommend the candle making experience.

Had a really frustrating experience here…read more My kids designed water bottles; which took about less than 10 minutes on Canva. You can only pick images that are outlines so it just doesn't take long to do. Morever, the template they use only covers a part of the water bottle, like 1/4 of it. It doesn't go all the way around or even halfway around. I was told it would take 30 minutes to engrave so we walked around, and I KEPT getting texts that it would take an additional 30 minutes. Ultimately we waited about 140 minutes for a project that had hands on time of about 10 minutes. Yes, almost 2.5 hours of waiting; which might have been fine with me if I knew ahead of time to come back another day, but again, they kept just adding on time. Also when we finally received our product I was peeved that we could barely see my son's engraving. See picture - why is it a dark gray/brass engraving over a dark blue bottle? I could at least be warned to pick a lighter color bottle. Why even offer the darker water bottles if the engraving can only be dark gray? *head exploding* I was really frustrated with 1. this not really being much of a "craft"; 2. the lack of communication up front about timing since we had plans that we ended up being late for and 3. that we could barely see the final product we waited so long for.

I love the concept of this place, and I love that it's woman owned and there's a strong women…read morepresence in the staff. I recruited 4 of my closest friends and we were ready to bring our sneaker designs to life. So I give the sneaker activity a 4/5 from an adult perspective. It wasn't what I expected. We had ideas in what we wanted to make, but the customization is very limiting. I expected: - The shoes already being there, and getting to put the designs on myself. In reality, the shoes weren't there and they heat press your designs for you at a later time - more freedom on design like coloring in other sections of the shoe or adding design to the shoelaces. You only get at most 5 places to add design to, per side and per shoe. And everything is done on Canva - to leave with my shoes. You wait a few more days to pick up the final product. On the Square website, yes I was aware of the sentence that said shoes are picked up the following week. But i thought that was merchandise before we start design So I interpreted it as, book the appointment at least a week ahead for the shoes to be there in the store. (I booked over a month in advance) So to reiterate, this place is definitely 5/5. I'd come by for the other activities. As for the sneaker activity, skip it if adult only.
