Moshier has a lot of classes it offers from the beginner to the person who knows their stuff. It's a pretty large place but very welcoming. I would have given all five stars but I think the cost of the classes is a bit high.

You get a 30 minute lesson and at least an hour to enjoy clay. Best part, it's all the clay you can spin. I took full advantage of that fact to keep trying. You only get to keep 2 pieces which they ship to you after it's fired. Amazing value! Amazing experience! FYI: You really don't have time to drink (sipping is the best you can do) and with your hands are covered in clay don't bother bringing snacks.

First off I'd like to say that I have been bringing my twin daughters to this store since they were…read moreone year old and I have NEVER seen the behavior from the staff as described by the woman posting another comment. In fact, my experience has always been the opposite and my daughters are 10 years old now. Both Lael and Kathy, the owners, even let them pick out little trinkets to take with them. It made my girls do happy! Now for my review. I learned so much from Kathy and Lael over the years that I am so thankful for. Their teaching is top notch and I highly recommend going and learning this form of art that is slowly becoming lost. If you think you aren't artistic enough, Think again. I can't draw, paint, sketch or sculpt to save my life, After going through their classes I feel like I am a talented artist. I also made lifelong friends there taking the classes. The students are a wonderful group of people! The other side of the business is fantastic as well! If you are looking to spruce up your home with some beautiful art pieces, stained glass is the way to go. Whether it's putting glass in your cabinet doors or filling a window with color, Glass Expressions is the place to fulfill those needs.

They were super patient as I stumbled through picking out a pot and a set of ornaments (made by the staff!) and sent me off with a calendar of upcoming events and everything picked up nicely organized in a box. Felt like I hit the plant-based jackpot walk-in out of there, excited to go back.

OK, listen up!!! Urban Sprouts is AMAZING. After visiting nearby Wyldwood Creative, my friend and I…read morewere looking for food but instead stumbled across this absolute GEM of a plant shop. This place has everything: super cute plant decor, a wide variety of plants from easy care and pet friendly to rare finds, and best of all? A plant "hospital" in the back where staff will diagnose plant issues, repot for you, and generally help your plant babies survive and thrive. Absolutely genius! There is a charge for these services but the prices seemed reasonable. The staff was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and so friendly which of course made the whole experience even better. If I had this shop locally (Los Angeles), I'd be there constantly. Whether you're new to plants or a seasoned plant parent, it's worth a stop.

I found Menakshee Designs on Yelp and scheduled a call with Srujana. Srujana couldn't have been nicer and agreed to help me even though I only gave her a week's notice. She worked diligently throughout the few days we had to get my cap finished for graduation. In the end, my cap looked beautiful and I received many compliments. My family and extended family loved the design and we plan to have my cap framed now after Srujana's beautiful work. I highly recommend Srujana and plan to use her services again in the future.

For my wedding gift to my in-laws, I had an interesting idea: since a part of my wife's family is…read morefrom the Indian state of Kerala, I wanted to give them something meaningful, and get a calligraphy print of my mother-in-law's favorite Bible verse written in Malayalam (the primary language spoken in Kerala). However, I ended up frustrated after reaching out to various calligraphers with no success. I ran into roadblock after roadblock, as Malayalam is not an incredibly widespread language and most calligraphers A. don't take commissions in languages that use different scripts than English, or B. are willing to try it, but for a much higher price and with no guarantee that the finished product will turn out as expected. After months of searching, I was referred to Menakshee Designs by another calligrapher who had been unable to take the commission, but said that Srujana may be able to help me. A few weeks later, I had two completed prints that were miles above anything I thought I would be able to have done. Srujana did such an amazing job. The customer service and attention to detail was astounding throughout the whole process, from ensuring that the commission was completed, shipped out, and received on time (even when it was on short notice) to making thoughtful suggestions like including a specific type of flower significant in Indian weddings - something that I wouldn't have even considered! Through every step of the way, she was communicative and offered me options so that she was sure the work was exactly what I wanted. My in-laws (and grand-in-laws!) were thrilled when I gave them the finished product, and they have gotten nothing but compliments on the framed prints that they now have hung up as a centerpiece in their living room. This was six months ago, so this review is much later than it should have been (the months after a wedding can be hectic!), but I wanted to do my part to support and draw attention to this amazing artist. I would not hesitate to urge anyone who is looking for amazing customer service and outstanding results to give Menakshee Designs your business, and I will be doing the same to every member of my wife's large family once wedding season starts in a few months!! Thank you for everything, Srujana - I'm looking forward to having the opportunity to work with you again.
