Absolutely love this friendly and welcoming business! Attending a Christmas event thrown by a friend to support our local libraries. I am NOT a crafty person but they made it so easy! I went home with an awesome sign that I can't believe I made. Prices are very reasonable and staff is super helpful read more

Hammer and Stain was an awesome, personalized, fun-filled experience for an afternoon out with the ladies! Trevor was very quick to respond to my email query about a specific project my sisters and I wanted to complete, and was super patient with my multiple questions and last minute changes. He and his wife Susie took the extra care to call us the day of to ensure we had the right cut of wood for our pieces, which speaks to their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction. Our day-of instructor, Mickie, was incredibly kind enough to spend extra time to walk us through step-by-step directions when we felt unsure of what to do, and even guided me towards which paints should be mixed for the perfect color I was looking for. The website said you can bring own drinks, so we brought our own mangocinis and glasses for a refined, mini celebration of the bride-to-be, DIY experience. Susie and Trevor are great. We drove all the way out from OC because we wanted a one-of-a-kind crafting experience, and we GOT IT! read more

Last weekend my team second grade teachers made beautiful signs for our classroom doors. We had the the owners all to ourselves. They helped each of us with our projects and helped us have a fun and memorable experience. They are fabulous humans. Lots of laughs. Our signs look amazing on our doors. We will definitely be back! read more

After having such a good time with my daughter last time, I took my 9 year old daughter to Hammer and Stain to make Birthday crafts for the Grandmas. We had so much fun together creating two pieces of art that we will enjoy for years. The staff was super helpful and friendly. This is the second time for me and third time for my daughter. We love it! Give it a try as you won't regret it! read more

Wonderful group project atmosphere to bring your friends, family and kids! We were excited to do something different from the "wine and paint" activity and really, this place fits the bill! We created farmhouse country decor with a personalized flair and the results were amazing! The owners here were also extremely nice and accommodating. They helped pick out colors and designs, and were helpful every step of the way. For snacks, we brought our own wine and munchies. Music played in the background and overall--we weren't rushed or felt like we couldn't complete a project. I highly suggest coming here for ANY group activity! Check out the website to see what you can make and grab your friends! read more

My daughter and I had a great time making projects at Hammer and Stained. Susie was so helpful! We look forward to coming back and making more projects! read more

Signed my adult daughter up for a Chunky blanket course for October 2019. Received a nice enough email, confirming her attendance. I replied and let them know she would like me to attend with her, but that she was the only person participating in the workshop and that I had attended elsewhere previously and did not need to take the course. I received a response stating, I could not attend with her that it was only one person, one project. I then replied that I would like a refund as my daughter would not attend alone. I sent two emails regarding the refund. No response, therefore I called and spoke to Trevor Fawbush (owner, I assume). He explained that due to liability (because they have tools there), it was an issue and mentioned something about signing a waiver. (I am fine with signing, no issue there.). He then told me, he could not issue a refund but a credit for a future workshop, which I in turn stated, I didn't think I would want to attend any courses in the future as I was not happy about him telling me I could not attend with her. You see, my daughter, has health issues, she doesn't drive and is a dependent. I mentioned that if she was handicapped how would they handle a situation as that. Basically, she is, but I didn't feel I needed to discuss all of her personal disabilities to be able to sit along side her. Long story short, he wanted to discuss with his business partner (wife, my guess) and see if they could allow us to attend together. At this point, I no longer want to take her there, now it's an embarrassment for her and awkward for me. He now tells me he will refund a portion of my money, but has to keep a 20% "re-stocking fee". Seriously? The course is still a month away, another person can attend in my daughters spot & it's not as if they will not offer a chunky blanket workshop again! Any way, at this point he states, he will refund all my money. Well, that did not happen, he refund all but 20%. This isn't a review so much about the money, but how we were treated, made to disclose personal information about my daughter and then to be made to feel like we were asking for something really extraordinary. All we asked for was to sit along side each other while she takes the workshop. For them to keep any money at all I feel is wrong, and to basically discriminate against a person with "issues" is against my belief on good customer service & accommodating a person with special needs. Please be careful in purchasing a workshop, they are very strict on who or what type of people they will accommodate. Happy ending, I have since purchased a workshop for her (I can attend to, no problem, whatsoever) with Pinot's Palette in Temecula. Highly recommend them! Update, I have been blocked from their Facebook page. Apparently they did not like me commenting on their policies and warning people that they cannot refund and "if" they do issue a refund at all it will be 20% less. Not okay! Discrimination against any person is not ok! It would have been so easy to just accommodate us, but that was asking too much. Sad that there are small businesses that choose to operate in this manner. Instead of a great experience, I am disputing with my credit card company, taking my business elsewhere. Not sure they choose best, poor customer service and to not show kindness towards all people. This was over $80 people. It is not about the money for me, but the lack of empathy & doing the right thing, for all people to have an enjoyable experience. This was meant to be a gift for my daughter, what fun is a gift she wouldn't enjoy? read more

What an experience! Fun, step by step guidance, and something to take home when you are done. Will definitely be returning. The owners and staff are friendly and so helpful. They also have options for children's b day parties. read more

What a wonderful and fun projects to do as a family. We enrolled in a virtual door hanging class. Our hangers arrived with everything we needed to complete the project. The class taught by Suzy was very interactive, and we got to work at our own pace. Suzy periodically checked up on us and answered any questions we had. This is definitely worth the money and you end with your own original door hanger. I recommmend this place for anyone wanting to try something different. Thank you Hammer and Stain for the wonderful experience and allowing us to create memories. I can't wait for the next project! read more

We went to to Ribbon Cutting ceremony and had a great time. I had my two younger sons with me and they also had a great time. The 'girl' helping us was so sweet and patient with my J.

This place is amazing !!! First time there and we have such a good time . Susie was awesome she helped us all and was very patient. I had texted / called Susie and her husband the night before with a bunch of questions and they got back to me right away and Susie was very sweet and helpful in answering all my questions. If anyone is looking for a great place to take their spouse on a date or maybe something to do with a group of friends this is definitely a place you want to check out . read more

Awesome evening spent with friends making memories and crafts. Owners were so helpful and so much fun, can't wait to plan another event

Love this place!!! So many types of projects you can do and it's great that you get to choose what you want to create. Unlike wine and paint nights, where everyone goes home with the same painting, here everyone can get together but go home with completely different projects. I like that you can still be an individual and be creative in your own way but still have guidance and support to create something to be proud of. They are super friendly and helpful and I cannot wait to go back and create something new! read more

Had the Best time here celebrating with friends! The owners Trevor and "Sweetie" were so patient with everyone, especially me lol! Seriously though the individual attention you get considering how many ladies there were, was Amazing! Everything is personalized and waiting for you. I appreciate all the thought and hard work Hammer and Stain put's into your experience here. Well worth it, and I can't wait to go back and redeem the prize I won! I'm pretty sure Trevor might be sick that day :-) read more

They offered a paint Easter egg contest for kids. My kids entered the contest and once we submitted our paintings, they decided to extend the date that people could turn in their paintings. They also extended when the contest was going to end. It was supposed to be an Easter contest and and the Friday before Easter but they pushed it out and add an unknown date and time. I kept messaging them to ask them when the contest would and I could never get a an answer from them. We had people voting for the kids paintings and I kept messaging them to ask them what time the contest ended with no response. They finally end of the contest at a random time that they chose. My daughter Alyssa was one of the winners and was informed through a post that they would be messaging all the winners on how to pick up their price. We never got an email. I messaged them multiple times to find out how to pick up our price with no response. Finally I emailed requesting my money back and I finally miraculously got a response. They are refusing to give me my money back and also have stated that they don't know when they will be getting the prizes to the winners. It was a scam and I am really upset that they felt the need to scan little kids. Shame on you! read more

I highly recommend Hammer and Stain for a fun and creative afternoon or evening. I went with a group of friends and we had a great time!

We will definitely be booking another workshop! read more
