A fun splurge for a special occasion or a treat yourself moment. I brought my 8 and 10 year old as a reward for getting good grades and they absolutely loved this activity. The best part was the unlimited charms. There was an unbelievable variety and everything was neatly organized. The shop is slightly small so it may be tough taking your time picking charms if there are a lot of people. We booked a table for 4 and got 2 items so that each adult can help each child. The workers were very nice and they even provided a little cart to hold your purses and water bottles next to your table. Parking is free for the first hour with validation. Definitely recommend as a unique activity for the crafter in your life. read more

Lumee DIY - Heart jewlery box - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Pasadena, California

My friends and I came here to celebrate my birthday together! It was the best experience! Highly recommend! We hadn't reserved an appointment, fortunately there had been an opening at the time we arrived. I do recommend booking in advance, as it did get kinda busy when we were leaving There was only one employee scheduled today, and Aron (Aaron?) was very helpful! As we chose to make the plush animal bag charms, we were given a "tour" of the clothes & accessories, along with a detailed explanation of the limit to how many we could get (it was a very generous amount). One of my friends had a custom animal be made especially for them, while two of my friends purchased the instruction package (the other two of us hose pre-made animals). Aron taught/explained everything so well, and even helped them with the harder steps. Aron was so wonderful!! From giving me a free party-hat-shaped hair clip (after hearing my friends tell me happy birthday) to asking my name to personalize a handwritten birthday card, you helped make my day special! Thank you so much! They also have rug tufting, and their other location has "frosting" which I believe is decorating photo frames and etc with charms? Every activity offered is soooo cute and exciting! Pls visit if you have a chance :) read more

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. read more

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 read more

Lumee DIY - Decorating table - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Pasadena, California

So much fun!!! Great for kids. Soooo many charms to choose from! My daughter and nice absolutely loved it.

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

My daughter had her ninth birthday here and it was so lovely! I wasn't sure what to expect with 20+ little kids doing this type of craft, but they all made the most special treasures and had the time of their lives. The people working at Lumee are so sweet and helpful! We had been to the shop a couple weeks before and mentioned that my daughter loves capybaras and hoped there would be some capybara charms at her party - they had a whole section of capybara charms for her! They also gave her the cutest little birthday clip. Made her and all her friends feel very special. 10/10!! read more

Came here on a Saturday morning with a party of 8 (four kids and four adults). The kiddos had a great time decorating a phone case and 3 purses. The girl who was working this morning was really patient with our party (we had a 2 year old ). We all really enjoyed our experience here. Also, the charms are unlimited so it's a great value for the price! I would def come back for a Galentines date. read more

Would highly recommend! My daughter has been wanting to try rug tufting and this is the first studio I've found to offer the activity for kids as young as 8. The staff member, John, was very patient and helpful. The whole process is pretty straightforward and the session begins with learning tufting basics and practicing on scrap canvas. My daughter is thrilled with the end product and says it was a fun experience! Btw the parking in the rear is an outdoor/open space lot -- not the apartment/retail building indoor lot. 3 hours free parking read more
