    We came here for a birthday party and were pleasantly surprised by how cute the place is. They offer a variety of options to choose from. However, based on the size of the space and their reservation system, it's difficult to fully rent out the venue for a party. Instead, you reserve a certain number of people, and they place your group on one side while continuing to accept other reservations to place on the other side at same time. This was my main criticism. The space felt way too crowded for a party setting. I do not recommend a big party at this facility. That said, my experience was much better when I came back on my own with my kids. We had plenty of time to choose our gems and design our items without feeling rushed. On average, it's about $50 per item. Parking is free for one hour with validation.

    Aaron the store manager is soooo sweet! I felt so bad because a large party left just before we came in, & he was working hard on his own to set up the space and make sure it was clean and spotless before we started. He explained the process thoroughly and was super patient with us, especially since we had trouble deciding on the orientation and placement of our accessories on our Moro dolls. With his help, we were able to make something we were happy with. Thank you to Aaron for making our visit special!!

    Really great place to take your tween girls. Staff was very helpful. Took my daughter (9) there. It was both of our first time. The staff provided us with the demonstration and helped us do some of the piping. The staff checked in on us regularly and were not pushy, it was so sincere. Parking in the back was great but we went on a weekday so there was ample parking. The staff nicely boxed the finished product securely for us to take home. I only wish there were more options for design templates. We did a binder and hair claw, but it would be nice if they had something more practical like a jewelry box or pencil holder.

    I dashed into Lumee to put together a last-minute birthday gift for a tween girl and it was more than I could have dreamed of and more. They have items that you customize with charms and colored glue. We picked a mirror and were given a little basket. We could pick two colors of glue and pick out 15 charms. They have lots of little drawers filled with charms. When we checked out, the cashier included extra charms for free. I think she was paying attention to the color theme because she included charms in the same color family (blue). They have lots of little tables where you can decorate items on-site like a fun activity. As mentioned, I purchased this as a gift for a tween girl, but to my surprise, all of the patrons in the store at the time of my visit, and later visits, have been primarily adults who are looking for a crafty activity or a cute date-night. Thought I did pass by one-time and see a kids birthday party so it's really fun for all ages. Lumee has a second location in Pasadena where you can tuft rugs or make squishies (I think). The items are not cheap but they are adorable.

    Decorating table

    Super cute place! They have so many cute selections- hair clips, binder notebook, mirrors, jewelry boxes... my girls (older teens) had a blast decorating and designing their finds. The little decorations are super cute- they had a fun time shopping for what they want to use. Super great idea for girls hangout on a super hot day. And the prices are reasonable too- they have things from $28 to about $50- not bad for 2 hours of DIY! Would definitely recommend

    Cute and lovely place to visit! The staff was very informative and optimistic. Me and my husband had so much fun customizing our phone stand and hairbrush. They have a variety of options to choose. We will be back :)

    Finished profit of our Polaroid diy!

    First time coming here, my boyfriend surprised me for a date! Staff was nice, amazing, gave clear instructions & did not feel rushed at all. They have many variations of charms & many good selection of items to DIY. Many colors of piping glue as well! Charms & piping glues are unlimited! You just pay for the item you choose! Def will come back!

    This was such a unique and fun activity! My friends and I did the decoden/frosting glue activity and there's a lot of mini items to choose from. Service was friendly amd helpful. This would be a great date or small group activity!

    Lots of charm options to choose.

    Daughter loves this place! We'll come back. Very friendly staff and safe place to leave my child.

    Amazing experience! Was able to use as many charms and foam. There was plenty of time to do my project. Everything was explained before we djd our project.

    We had such a great experience at Lumee! My daughter absolutely loved making her Moro doll--she had so much fun from start to finish. The staff was friendly, patient, and made the whole process feel really special. The accessories and clothing options are adorable, and she enjoyed picking out every little detail to make her doll unique. The shop is cute, organized, and really welcoming. It's the kind of place that makes you want to stay a little longer just to look around. We'll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend Lumee to anyone looking for a memorable experience for their kids (or even adults!). Thank you for giving us such a wonderful visit!

    I had so much fun indulging my inner child here making a super cute phone Xavier!! So many choices in charms. Plenty of room to play. And they have me a little gift for my birthday. Whole heartedly recommend Lumee Pasadena!

There's a huge selection of unlimited charms and icing colors to choose from. But warning!! Don't grab too many charms because whatever you don't use, you have to put it back. The table stations have all the tools you need to decorate your items from tweezers, glue, scissors, etc. The employees are super sweet.

I made reservations online after seeing it on Instagram and thought it would be fun to take my daughter because this is totally up her alley. We went on a Saturday evening and spent 2 hours here. The crafts she did was a hair claw, ipad/phone holder, cake looking note pad, and I did hair clips. I love how organized everything is and how detailed the staff is in answering all of the questions we had. However, I do have to say that everything adds up quickly. It is pricey so this cannot be an activity we can do often. Definitely a once in awhile type of thing. My daughter was such a happy camper and cannot wait to return. They email you instructions on where to park as parking is about a block away. But it was super easy to follow and understand. I would definitely recommend this spot and could see myself coming back with my daughter again. 2 thumbs up from us! Tips: *Reserve online *Takes credit card *They have a rewards program, make sure to join. *Staff spoke English/Chinese *Restroom is available *Parking offsite *They have more than one location. *You can host parties here.

I wasn't gonna let that ruin my day, so I thanked them both (first one had an attitude and wasn't helpful, second one had an attitude, but at least pointed me in the right direction, lol). Once I finally landed in the clear contact paper section, the price just left me wishing for either better customer service or an alternative solution.

We each found images of what we wanted to create online and were able to trace it onto the canvas. Since it was our first time, we all opted for the small canvas but in retrospect, maybe the medium size would've been easier as the tufting gun is harder to maneuver in smaller sections. The staff was very helpful in providing instructions and staying close by as we worked on our projects. Once we were done, we left our mini rugs to be picked up another day since the staff would put the backing on for us and clean up any loose ends and such.

Initial Impression: I have heard of Lumee before due to its previous locations, but I never had the chance to visit. I just so happened to have extra time in Pasadena so couldn't resist stopping in. This shop in Arcade Lane opened recently and it is situated in a cozy area near Urth Cafe. It is bright, colorful, and hard to miss. The perfect place to draw in lovers of all things Kawaii. Service: the shops man is the absolute sweetest and not only took time to explain the concept of the shop, but he also showed all the artwork and some of his own work! The Mahjong bag is so impressive! Lumee offers tufting for carpets and supplies the tools. They also offer decoden cases, trinkets, hair clips, bags, and more! Locations have a variety of different experiences so check ahead! Overall: I was able to make a trinket for around $8! It can also be upgraded to a magnet and you can walk-in if you want to! They offer group experiences as well, and I think it would be cute for a date too. I really can't want to go again!

What really sets this shop apart, though, is Christina. She is truly the heart of the place. She's warm, funny, incredibly knowledgeable, and just an all-around joy to be around. She can help you design something custom, guide you through making it yourself, or even create it for you. And if you need repairs, she's amazing at that too. They also offer classes, which is such a great touch--I took one on making bracelets and it was such a fun experience. What a cool thing to be able to do locally. Honestly, I never thought I'd say this, but I actually look forward to needing repairs--because it means I get to come back and see Christina. She makes every visit feel personal and fun, and you always leave in a better mood than when you walked in. Such a wonderful shop with a truly special owner. Highly recommend checking it out.

The class was scheduled for 2 hours. We ended an hour early with an end product that was a bit underwhelming. Our instructor was friendly enough, though never introduced herself nor took the time to ask the class (all 3 of us) our names. I wrote a letter to the owner and never got a response back. Highly unlikely I will return. Below is the letter I sent, including a few other underwhelming aspects to the class: "Hello! I took last evening's Macrame Weaving workshop. As I was driving back to Long Beach last evening after the class, I had some time to reflect on the workshop. I signed up for it to learn a new skill that I could potentially teach my students. (I've been an Art Teacher for many years). Unfortunately, I feel very disappointed with the class as a whole, as well as with our end result product. I believe the owner was there last evening; I regret not having pulled her aside to chat, though I wasn't quite clear on how I felt about the class until I was on my ride home. Our instructor was very friendly and I so appreciate the use of the high quality organic cotton cord. I also appreciated the hand out with the images of various knot styles. However, I don't even know what our instructor's name was. She never introduced herself or asked our names - there were only two other participants besides myself. We ended class nearly an hour early. This feels like a waste of project making and learning time. Either the project we did was too simple or our instructor wasn't thoroughly prepared. Her instruction was okay, though I don't think it is very helpful to physically do something for the student which she did a number of times. I believe it is more helpful to walk them through it verbally while allowing them to do it to experience the motions and acquire muscle memory. Craft is a great space! I wanted to share my thoughts because I think the class I took last evening could be improved upon for future students. Thank you for reading, Ivette"
