Best thing they do is allow you to come back and finish a piece so there is never a rush. They have a puppy (I say puppy but she's an older dog) that frequents the shop, I do believe the owners husband owns the leather shop next door and they have the door open to it sometimes. I'd pop in there from time to time to see the beautiful work he does. Back to Lily Pad, their prices go from $-$$$ so expect a range and if you're on a budget make sure to establish yours before entering because you'll end up like me and spend $$$ each time on just yourself. They offer homeschool classes, spring and summer break camps, and other events as well. We've attended a few and they're always fun. There has only been one time where I had a bit of a negative experience and it was because my item that I spent a few hours on had exploded in their kiln. They did offer for me to come in and paint a new one but due to time constraints by the time I was able to come in the item I originally painted which was a Halloween decor item no longer fit my decor and since it was spring I asked if I could change it. I was not allowed to change for an equal or lesser priced item sadly. We moved on, painted the original piece. No issue just wish I could have switched it. Still cute though. Overall, the young ladies she has working there are sweet and helpful and it's a nice spot to relax with family for some fun. They also offer military discounts.
