The staff are friendly and helpful, even if you don't have a single artistic bone in your body. The prices can add up if you bring a few people but the experience and anticipation of the finished product make it worth it.

I had no idea this type of activity existed until my friend invited me. I love painting so this was…read morea perfect fit for me. It's in the mall but easily accessible from the movie theater entrance at Sugarloaf Mills. Since I had a guide for my first time it was a less stress experience but the staff offered kind and polite assistance. Wash your hand first, then wander and pick your pottery. There are many pieces to choose from at different price points. Then take your piece to the desk to check-in and choose your paints. From there grab a table and get started painting. Simply drop off and pay at the desk when you're done. Come back and pick up in a week once it's been glazed and fired. I loved the painted pieces that are on display since they are great for inspiration. I went back to pick up my pieces and decided to go for another round. I think I'm hooked!

She refused to take a tip for all the assistance. In other things, the store was stocked with so many options, and was clean and orderly.

If I'm wrong, I'll be happy to adjust my rating.

The amount of pottery that you can choose from to paint was a little overwhelming but I landed on a…read moreskateboard. There's also a plethora of paint to choose from. Be aware that some paints are not dishwasher safe. You'll know by confirming with an employee or if there's a specific letter in the paint numbers of your paint tube. You can grab an apron to avoid paint on yourself. If you do get paint on yourself it's able to be washed out but I didn't want to try it. There's one hand wash station where you will also drop off your used paint tiles and paint brushes. Once you get the run down on what to do from an employee you're on your own. There's a display that shows how your paint will look on your pottery depending on if you do 1-3 coats of paint. Time will fly quickly so I painted as much as I could and went over areas a lot. You can have finished pottery shipped to you but it could be more cost-effective to have one person pick up all the pottery if you have multiple and ship it yourself. When you pick up your pottery you'll get to carry it out in the store's new reusable bag. It was very cute. There's not much parking outside but that's the area for you. It's a fun activity to do with a group. Sometimes there might be no conversation going depending on how focused people are on painting but it's also a good time to unwind and turn your brain off.

We settled on All Fired Up in Alpharetta because it was inside but most importantly it was an activity...10 & 7 year olds only have so much of an attention span when hanging out with adults 60+.... I looked online and they suggested reserving a table to make sure you had space BUT the reservation date window was closed online - they want you to do it 3 days in advance (I was 2 days), so I called... They reserved us a table easy peasy. Parking is a little difficult because it's not close to the main Downtown Alpharetta Parking lot - so if you have little kids that aren't easy to contain or don't want to walk far you have to hunt. I parked right off the street (but I got lucky). Give yourself some time to find parking. We walked in and the girl behind the counter was very friendly and super helpful. She explained to my kids what to do in a way that was engaging and they listened. All the ceramics to paint were on the walls grouped by category for the most part. Both of mine painted boxes - $26/$28. My friends painted a light switch and flower - $12/$15 You pick your piece then head to the paint wall and pick up the colors - they suggest no more than 3 colors but it's up to you what and how much. They did say the more "coats of paint" the better it'll look when it's fired. We painted and talked and enjoyed ourselves. Four items came to about $95 which is perfectly fine for an afternoon activity that you then get to keep later. We went on a Wednesday, our pieces will be ready on a Wednesday (so about a week). We had fun. We have a keepsake. And it wasn't blazing hot while we were hanging out with family friends Win win

DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE!…read more This store is chocked full of goodies. It is like falling down a rabbit hole because it just goes on and on and is the full length of the building. You can actually exit out of the rear door. This store has lots of gift ideas for your home and garden such as cute little lunch and picnic bags, home decor items, garden accessories and supplies, fragrances, chimes, gift cards and so much more. I love the "laugh out loud gift cards". These are the cards that you read and immediately laugh out loud. My favorite birthday card today had a picture of an older woman on the front and read: Gurrrl!, 39 again? and when you open it, it says: Do you even own a mirror? I loved it and if I had a frenemy, this would be the perfect card. Unfortunately this is not a card that I would actually give to a friend but one that I would share for a good laugh. There were several of these very funny cards along with more serious ones. In the second room there was a collection of fragrances that you could actually test. They came in the form of creams, sprays, liquids and diffusers. I tested one and will be returning to purchase some because as I sit here, I am enjoying this wonderful light scent that is not overwhelming and does not cause my eyes to water. Today I picked up Wind and Willow Chili and cheese hot dip mix. I hope the product tastes as good as the picture looks. They had several varieties but I chose this one because it was lower in sodium and will pair well with my blue tortilla chips. This is a great mature gift shop where you can find items of dignity to give your friends. No more tacky tees and cheap garbage as you will find truly thoughtful options available.

You don't have to worry about parking except more of the traffic getting in and out of the strip mall. --Ambience-- Similar to other hobby stores, Michaels has a huge variety from fabrics to various other hobbies like wood, holiday decorations, etc. Cashier at the front of the store can vary in organized to disorganized based on the store. This was a clean environment. --Service/Staff-- The staff varies per location from knowledge to newly hired associate. --Products/Service-- Recommended to check the inventory on the website if you are looking for something specific. This is one of the larger Michaels and stocks various items located on their website. --Capacity-- Indoor capacity can hold 100+ people during a Black Friday rush hour. --Overall-- Great location and plenty of parking. I recommend visiting, but check the website before hand for inventory if you are looking for something specific.

There was great selection of clearance items and as a small business owner, I was very excited to grab a lot of of the yarns on clearance value absolutely wonderful I picked up all of the yarn that retail at $13-$15 for five dollars apiece. What I also like is that they sent me discount coupons and vouchers anytime I make a purchase and so I was able to use a $15 voucher and pretty much picked. Jan was $100 for $15. I'm definitely a Happy shopper.
