For several long weekends starting at Black Friday weekend, the Kirkland Arts Center revamps its space to be a holiday art market. It's a fantastic opportunity to buy locally made artisan pieces. From a few dollars for a card, to tens, hundreds, and even thousands of dollars for pottery, jewelry, and exquisite one-of-a-kind art, there is something for everyone. I was here on "Shop Small Saturday". Not surprising, I was pleasantly pleased with the variations of art works offered, from wearables, to functionals, and decorative, I eyed pottery bowls, jewelry, wall art, and these beautiful ceramic bouquets. I did walk away with a pretty piece. Yay, me. Check their hours before going. The shopping season is ending soon; they'll turn back into a pumpkin - i.e. an art center.

Throughout the entire time, she was very patient and was always willing to spark and encourage ideas. What's great about this is their open studio time where you can come in and work on your pieces during the open session where an instructor will be there to help. Apparently there was another student in class who went to the Bothell pottery class and their charged her an arm and a leg just for extra clay and firing... This is definitely a place worth coming!

Jamie is a great teacher who provides instruction and non-judgmental teaching and support to her students. The studio is a fun and supportive place to be creative. Jamie offers a variety of classes - I have tried silk painting, glass fusing, acrylic painting, charcoal & soft pastel, and oil painting - and workshops. The studio is also an art gallery where you can view and buy Jamie's and other artist's work, and buy art supplies. Classes are reasonably priced and for most classes all supplies are provided. Woodinville is lucky to have this wonderful creative space.

I wanted to come back and update my review now that we've picked up our finished pieces. We're…read moreseriously so happy with how everything turned out! The full process took about 3 weeks total. Our pottery class was on March 29th, we came back to paint on April 12th, and then picked everything up on April 17th. It honestly felt like such a fun extended experience getting to come back and see everything through. The painting portion was super enjoyable too. They offer a variety of glazes, some classic colors included at no extra cost, plus a few specialty options for a small fee. My fiancé chose the "Safari" glaze (just $1 extra), which had these cool glass pieces that melt in the kiln and create such a unique pattern. Definitely worth trying if you want something a little different! Pickup was easy overall. My only small suggestion would be to clarify the pickup hours on the card that's handed out after painting. Google hours seem to reflect member hours, while the hours posted on the door are different. When I arrived, they technically weren't open yet (my mistake, I'm sorry!), but the person at the front desk was super kind and still helped me find my pieces, which I greatly appreciated. Overall, such a great experience from start to finish. Thank you so much Creative Hands Studio, we'll definitely be back!

We came with some friends to their felting class and had an amazing time. Yatzee was super sweet in helping the kids out and even allowed for one crafter to make her own creative design AND then gave her more supplies to take home to make the actual craft we did in class. Super thankful that they're not super strict with rules, etc so that it was comfortable for all in all of their creative processes. Classes can be pricey and for some reason the mobile version does not accept Apple Pay but otherwise a great experience and a new felter has been born!

She is not only an incredible painter, she's giving and thoughtful and leads from the heart. Yes, she is skilled beyond measure and trust me...you will see in her works collections. Her ability to capture the vision and minds of her students, friends and family, then help put their vision onto the canvas is unbelievable. I feel lucky to have her paint something for me! Cant wait to share it with others! I had the chance to partner with her and she spent time genuinely interested in my vision and idea and helped collaborate with me so my idea popped into life! Above and beyond: When it comes to the quality of her work - Sweety goes the extra mile. She shows up with humility, yet balanced with strong conviction. Sweety does MORE than what you even expected out of her, its such a wonderful surprise. Her students are so blessed to work with her closely. Sweety focuses on others. She gives fully without expecting much in return. I cannot recommend her enough. If you get a chance to do anything with her, DO IT! You will not regret it.

I believe our instructor's name was Hannah. She was extremely friendly, helpful, and encouraging. She brought great energy to the class and got everyone laughing and excited to paint! I love to paint and draw, I just don't have any real creative talent :) It was fun and easy to follow along and even find ways to make the painting your own. The studio itself had great vibes overall. I feel like the staff does a really good job of making the environment really fun and upbeat. There was fun music playing the whole time, which was really nice for painting and socializing. They had a decent selection of beverages, including wine, beer, cider, soda, and water. My boyfriend and I each got a glass of wine (I think they were $9 each), and then we ended up splitting a ginger ale later in the evening. We definitely got our money's worth with the wine, and it was really fun to be able to have a drink in hand while being an ~artist~. Overall, I had a really fun time during the class. I would recommend it to anyone and definitely want to return in the future.

Game selected: Deadwood Valley…read more While I'm familiar with the whole concept of virtual reality, I had never tried it out until my first visit to Sandbox VR. When we arrived, we used the kiosks to check in, sign the waiver and input our contact information. This becomes important later in order to receive your post-game video highlights via email & text. After this, a staff member took us to the back and guided us on how to suit up. Each person must wear a vest and a total of four sensors that strap on to each wrist and ankle. We then entered our game room and the employee assisted us with strapping on the headsets which launched us into the virtual world! It's so cool to look around what was previously just an empty room and see your teammates in their animated state. After a quick tutorial, we were handed the weapons we selected and the game began. Without going into too much detail, we were "transported" into a city that has been overrun with zombies, zombified dogs, birds and other monstrous creatures. The game lasted about 30 minutes and took place across three different stages. You are truly immersed in the environment. When the zombies attack, it appears as if they are right in your face and your vest vibrates upon their contact. When you're shooting, keep in mind that accuracy counts! For attire, wear light clothing as you'll be moving the entire time, equivalent to a bit of a workout. The gear itself is pretty lightweight, but the headset is not super comfortable. Understandably, it needs to be strapped on tightly, but it felt like my cheeks were being pulled down and about halfway through, it seemed like the headset was slightly clouding up. Four of us played the Deadwood Valley game and the rest of our group played Unbound Fighting League. For UFL, only two players can play at a time, so you will spend some time sitting on the sidelines. The 30 minutes of gameplay went by quickly and then one of the employees showed us our video highlights on a large screen, which were entertaining to say the least! The videos are immediately sent via email / text as well. This virtual reality experience was super fun and very unique, however it was $60 per person for 30 minutes of a single game. To me, that seems fairly steep. For that price, it would have been nice if they allowed you to play two games (or offered some type of package deal to do that), however I'm sure that's all part of their strategy to get customers to return.
