It wasn't much more than the price of the entrance fee. We signed up online through their website and was emailed by their super star staff members Alex and Abby. They took care of everything!

We all had a great time and will definitely do this again.

The first impression I had when walking into the shop was, man, what a mess. There's just random…read morestuff all over the place, and what are obviously customer pieces sitting on the floor. Interesting. But, the other reviews said what an awesome job they did, so I figured that I'd let that influence me more than the mess in front of me. The lady working there was in the back chatting with someone, and I waited a few minutes before I poked my head back there to let them know I was in the lobby area. She politely said hello and said she would be with me in a minute. Well, after 20 minutes or so of listening to the lady and the guy in there bullshit about random things, they both made their way up to the front, and the gentleman left. They both thanked me for being so patient. Now, I totally understand that if there's one person working there, and two customers, one of the customers is going to have to wait. I was fine with that, but I think if you know that you have someone else waiting in the lobby, at least shoot the shit somewhere where they can't hear you. It was mildly irritating. When I was finally helped, I asked for a fairly common type of frame (1/4 - 3/8" brushed aluminum), which they didn't have. She said something about the recession making things difficult to get, and the manufacturers were not making a lot of different frames anymore. Whatever. So I took my stuff literally less than 2 miles away, where I was helped almost immediately, and they had exactly what I was looking for. I asked if they had any issues obtaining framing material because of the recession, and they looked at me like I had a third eye. I figured as much.

I LOVE that this place has a little retail shop at the back where you can see and buy unique handmade glass items. There are so many amazing pieces and it seems like they are all done by local artists which is great. I love to walk in here just to look at all the pretty things they have. This is also a fantastic place to buy something nice for someone. These pieces are so beautiful they would be great as gifts. Highly recommend just stopping in! I do it all the time and there's always something new to see!

During our Temecula visit, we wanted to check out a museum or artsy attraction. Searching Google, I…read morestumbled upon the Ricardo Breceda Art Gallery; a collection of metal sculptures. The gallery is located 16 miles east of Interstate 15 on the 79. Not hidden, but a mini adventure drive to get there. Once you are close, you will see silhouettes of dinosaurs and other creatures along the hillside and you are there. Enter a world of welded art creations of all sorts. I wasn't sure about parking when I arrived, but I accidentally drove into the gate. Luckily I turned around and noticed that parking was just all the gravel in front (unmarked). Not sure what to expect, there were two gentlemen under a shaded tent welding together more metal art. One of them was Mr. Breceda. Super friendly guy, and welcoming. The land is decorated with literally hundreds of art structures from hand size to dinosaur size. They range from anything from historical figures on horses to transformers. The entry fee is only $10 and ricardo even gives you a gift. This place is so cool and worth the visit.

You will also some charm and other gems if you were looking to make something on your own. Oh, and there are some handmade jewelry displayed in the store as well.

I know I probably missed mentioning a lot more, so you'll have to take a trip and check out what they carry. I would like to mention that the prices are very reasonable. My last visit here the gal was very helpful and friendly.

The service from the owner Laurie was exceptional. A very welcoming and kind person who clearly loves the gallery and has a passion for curating art! The current exhibit is very nice and there's a great selection. The art is priced from lower to higher priced but this allows everyone a chance to get a piece which is amazing! We loved all the pieces but there was one that truly spoke to us and we purchased it!! We were able to take it home today since we visited from out of town which was very nice!! Final note: There was a sweet dog at the gallery too! I believe her name was Lulu! Very cute and friendly dog. I love seeing gallery dogs!! So cute! Overall we really loved this gallery and the selection! I hope to visit Oceanside again so we can stop by!

All of us moms painted something and some of our girls made bracelets at the charm bar. Open studio is great if not everyone can decide what they want to do.

Unfortunately, during our latest visit, we encountered some challenges that were quite…read moredisappointing. We have visited multiple times in the past without any issues, except the fact that they were closing early, but this time, we found the experience less than satisfactory. Your phone line indicates that you are open until 7 PM from Tuesday to Saturday and until 5:30 PM on Sundays. Online it says till 5:30pm. However, when I called to confirm your hours prior to our visit, no one answered. I arrived at 4:32 PM on my daughter's birthday, the day she had been eagerly looking forward to painting. To our dismay, we were informed that we could not paint, even though there was still an hour before closing time. We had planned to make bracelets, have a hat made, and enjoy the painting experience together. I understand that circumstances can vary, but it was disheartening to be turned away in such a manner, especially on a special occasion. She could have offered to let her paint for only 30 mins or whatever would allow her to close on time. She just seemed like she didn't want us there because she was on a time crunch to leave. Mind you the business is completely empty so you would think you'd want to make money. I believe it would be beneficial to ensure that your hours are accurately reflected on your phone line and to allow customers to enjoy their time until closing. We really loved this place but are definitely turned off now.
