Cute store that offers various crafting workshops. I attended the sea glass succulent workshop. The instructor was extrenely informative (and suppprtive), she made sure everyone had material and constantly checked to ensure nothing was running low. She was available for questions throughout the entire workshop if needed. The pricing for attending the workshop was extremely reasonable. It was such a fun experience, I have already signed up for my next workshop!!! read more

I had never heard of this place before until my coworker reached out to try and plan a girls' night there. We signed up for the Blankets & Besties workshop, where you make a chunky blanket. You get to choose your color from a list and note it when you register on their website. It was $85 before tax and came with 5 skeins of yarn, with the option to add more (I think for an additional $15). I also put in the notes on my registration the names of my friends so that we could sit together. The workshop was at 6pm on a Friday and lasted about two hours. There was my group of three and three others, plus the owner/instructor Lauren. Her instructions were easy to follow, and she would jump in if we needed help. I made a few errors, and she was able to fix them for me. I ended up making my loops too loose on the outside and too tight on the inside, so my blanket came out a bit small. But I think it was decent for my first attempt. It's so soft. I keep it on my couch to use as a lap blanket. We all had a great time and would definitely come back to try other workshops. My coworker had tried one of the resin workshops and really liked it too. read more

I would not recommend this company. It was overpacked with 24 people and one person working the event. There wasn't any tutorial of anything. The leader just said instructions quickly and with everyone doing so many different projects at same time, she couldn't go step by step to show anything or show different techniques. I was told that the resin would fall off the sides of the wood but I could put resin if I wanted. Well, it didn't fall off the side and looks bad. We luckily had a nice couple across from us with experience using resin and helped us along the way. I also googled things along the way (like how much resin is too thick cause that was never mentioned). For the price I paid I should not be googling information or asking other customers. read more

They booked 24 people for our class and only one teacher. I am fairly artistic but without ever doing this before and little help I wasted $100.00 dollars. Had they had two teachers it might have been better, had they provided written instructions, had they had a tv going with a demonstration I might have made a project to be proud of. I threw it a o g with $100.00 away! Maybe do other classes there but not resin. read more

We had the best time with Lauren at Hammer & Stain! I booked a private party for a group of girl friends and family on a Friday night. We got to pick our own projects, and brought snacks and wine. We worked on our projects and had a blast. Lauren was so helpful and and even fixed mine when I made a mistake and my OCD kicked in and I was stressing it wasn't perfect I cannot recommend this place and Lauren enough. I can't wait to go back and do another project! read more

Fun time. Have been twice. Once with a group of friends. You can choose a project and reserve time. Owner Lauren guides you through your DIY project and makes sure you succeed. Also Lauren hosted a private bday party for my 90 yo mom and went above and beyond. Feel free to bring your own beverages (yes beer or wine ok) and munchies. read more
