They even have paint for leather, which can be used for shoes, purses and jackets. Lots of materials for framing as well, including canvas that you can use to stretch to a customized size for your creation. Small number of supplies for fabric arts - just the basics to get started or if you're in a pinch. Prices are reasonable for the city and quality of the materials. Lots of cute gifty items up front too. Stop in here with your kids for a fun side trip when visiting Planet Word!

Everyone had a really great time picking their colors and doing the glass blowing. The pumpkins came out really great and the pickup process was super easy! My one complaint would be that we were such a large group (we had 2 groups back to back) and I was in the 2nd group- you could tell the staff got tired (very understandable since they had to make 20+ pumpkins) and they didn't do a great job explaining the process ahead of time. On the upside, they were great about talking you through it in the moment. It was pretty dummy proof since the staff did most of the process for you, I don't think I can say I actually did "glass blowing" which I think is fine. Overall, would recommend this for events (but maybe smaller groups) and the staff is really skilled. They have a shop up front which I would recommend checking out!

I was in Stevensville with my daughter and grandchildren and entered this cute shop. We were very…read moreimpressed with all the different items they had for sell by local artists; pillows, books, jewelry, oils, soaps, art supplies, wax/wax warmers, painted shoes, paintings, wood carvings, stones, and so many items I can't name them all here. It was great having a wide variety to pick from! The owner was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful! She even called one of the artists to answer my daughter's question about the exact content in the artisanal wax due to allergies. The paintings and home decor items were unique and representative of the charming community. There were multiple rooms and one even showcased some beautiful paintings. We made several purchases and will definitely visit next time we are in the area!

Maybe I'm just not a good critic of local art, but I really wasn't impressed. I was in…read moreStevensville on a Sunday afternoon, just browing some of the local shops and enjoying a lazy Sunday, saw the sign for this place proclaiming that they had a wide variety of artists, so I thought I'd check it out. Once inside, instead of exciting local art, I found a lot of jewelry, soaps, and a LOT of photgraphs. That was about it. They had a sign in the back of the store indicating that there was more art that way, but all I found was more soaps. Nothing really jumped out at me to say "you MUST take me home!" To top it off, the proprietor kept following me around, not-so-discreetly acting like he was reviewing the books, straightening a display, or some other mundane task, but I really got the feeling that he was suffocating me, perhaps thinking I was going to steal something. When I decided to leave the store, another man (who I assume was the proprietor's friend) said to me, "You can't leave, you need to buy something." Well....yes, I can leave, and no, I don't need to buy anything.

Of all the folks inside, only one was wearing a mask. Folks were somewhat spread out, but it was impossible for our group to maintain 6 feet of separation from the group next to us and employees were walking around the entire place and interacting with all customers without masks on. When I asked the employee why they weren't following or enforcing the mandated mask requirements, she said they didn't have to because they were occasionally sipping coffee. Yeah, right. We decided it wasn't worth it to risk ours and our community's safety to stay. It's a shame because it looked like it would've been fun. There was a large selection of pottery styles to choose from. I've you've been vaccinated, already had COVID, or have an affinity for places that don't prioritize customer safety, it may be worth checking out. Otherwise, paint at your own risk.

It was trippy with the black lights and projections on the wall of various etherial scenes. We all dressed up in the protective suit, googles and boots. The kids were a little small for the suits, but they managed to make it work! Once inside, you can throw paint all over, stomp on the artwork with your feet (a personal favorite of my kids), and twist the painting around to have the colors spread in all directions. We were joined by a staffer the entire time who took a few pictures along with a cute video. I recommend having the staffer snap photos with your own iPhone as mine came out a little better. But I did enjoy the video. At the end of the experience, they pack up the painting in gigantic pizza boxes. The paint is expected to dry in 24-48 hours, though ours took a much longer. I recommend putting the paintings outside on a dry day in the sun to help move that along. Granted ours had a lot of paint on it, but even after 48 hours it was super wet. This is a blast. And it's located in a classic 1990s mall. The kids LOVED this mall, complete with a Spencers gift store, bowling alley and reptile interactive experience. In fact, we'll probably come back here again once the winter sets in since there are so many things here to do with kids inside.

Event: Regular Splatter Paint Session to celebrate a couple birthdays…read more The space: The Splatter Room is located inside the Manassas Mall and is not located near an entrance so give yourself extra time if you have a reservation. The studio itself is cute with tons of display pieces and splatter paint artwork for you to look at that gets you in the mood to paint! The splatter paint room had really sticky floors which kept ripping my painting boots off. The experience: The splatter paint experience itself was fun! Before heading in, you put on a big thin white suit with a hood, rubber gloves, rubber booties, and plastic glasses. Make sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting stained because the clothing they give you doesn't work well to protect your clothes. We had to spend a lot of the time cleaning up in the bathroom afterwards which definitely should have been avoided by the establishment. You get about 6 bottles of primary colored paint, a paintbrush, and little cups to mix the colors. However, you can't easily splatter the colors you mix because the paint isn't in bottles at that point. Only one paintbrush was provided with no water so we couldn't reuse the paintbrush. You have an hour to do it but you really only need about 20 minutes. They give you a big box to easily take your painting home in. The service: Terrible. We walked in and no staff member approached or acknowledged us until we said something. The first girl we interacted with was rude and impatient with us. The main guy we worked with explained all the rules and how tos in a very confusing manner and he also spoke really low which was frustrating. Our group of young women couldn't hear most of what he said and he didn't clarify well. Overall, I had fun splattering paint with my friends and will be hanging what I made but I don't ever plan on coming back here and wouldn't recommend it.

I visited all three shops to find just the right fit. I found it. This shop is BIG. You don't feel crowded and claustrophobic when you are searching for fabrics. There a large windows so the lighting is perfect for seeing true colors. I have always been greeted when I walk through the door. There are a lot of employees but I didn't feel pressured or rushed to make a selection. On the contrary, as I was auditioning a couple of options I had multiple employees walk over and give my choices a "look" and they offered their opinions, which I found helpful. Amy is a COMPLETE GEM. Her classes are so worthd taking. The other huge plus is that she has an educational YouTube page where she posts many videos to continue your education from the shop to your home. How many times have I had a great experience in a class somewhere else, only to get home and forget a key step when I try to make the project? That isn't an issue with Amy's classes. She has so many videos to help refresh your memory. I will be back again, and again, and again. d
