More dogs' stuff than cats, but I found things for my cats and the cat lady, me! The owners, Barbara and Ron, are such a warm couple.

I had a chance to meet some guests who happened to be there and spoke with them. The owners have a cute, energetic dog that greets people at the entrance too. This place is so inviting. I would come back if I'm in the area. Of course, I got something for myself and my cats! The great store is owned by great people.

Nothing but good things to say about The Phoenix Art Studio & Gallery and its owner, Krissi. We're…read morefrom NJ, but we were coming to Long Island and wanted to do the paint night. Krissi was so accommodating! She even waited a few minutes to start Bc we ran late in awful traffic, which I found so sweet and kind and RARE. The painting was a NYC skyline. It looked difficult, but Krissi was so patient and made it look so easy. She guided us every step of the way. By the time we were done, we had these beautiful paintings. We had a blast. It was a great way to end the week and total into our creativity. I have been to paint nights before, but the people I brought were first timers. They were apprehensive about their lack of artistic skills, but I reassured them that they would have a great time, and I told them how surprised they would be when their painting was done. Well, I wasn't lying. Our paintings came out awesome. Another thing I like is that this isn't just a studio, but it is also a gallery. There were paintings done by local people that were absolutely brilliant. One in particular, was a remembrance to 9/11 done by Michael Mastropolo that brought on such emotion and feeling that we are still talking about it today. We brought our own snacks and drinks, but Krissi provided snacks as well. Nice catchy tunes play in the background as you wind down from a long hard week and paint to your heart's desire. The studio offers classes, events and paint nights, so check them out!!! Thanks to Krissi for a great experience and for helping us make a fun memory that will last in time. Everytime we see our paintings, we will remember what a great time we had.

I urge you to check it out.

I hired Happy Little Brush Strokes as a painting activity for a bachelorette party, and the company was so easy to work with from start to finish. I reserved my date several months in advance because their calendar fills up quickly! You're able to choose one of the paintings from their website and adapt it to what you need. I chose to paint full-sized wine bottles (and place fairy lights inside of the bottle so it lights up!) since the bachelorette party was "wine themed." The price was $30 per person for the experience. I believe if you choose to paint a canvas, it's $25 per person. Happy Little Brush Strokes came all the way out to Greenport, Long Island to do this activity. The instructor, Bob, was an absolute delight, who was filled with so much positive energy! He provided everything we needed for the event (paint, brushes, water cups, the wine bottles, fairy lights). The only thing we needed to provide were tables, table cloths, and chairs for our group of 7. The experience took just over two hours, and everyone had an amazing time!
