Traci greeted us when we came in and helped us pick out which pieces we were going to make and what colors. She's awesome. Guillermo started by making an ornament to show us the entire flow and from then on we got to do pretty much everything except blowing in the pipe / tube, which I understand. You don't want everyone's mouths on there. He was super helpful and explained everything to us answering any questions we had along the way. You could tell he absolutely loves what he does and enjoys sharing his passion with others. The 1.5 hours went by so quickly. Even when we messed up, he'd be like "perfect, that's peeeeerfect, now I'm just going to take this from you and adjust it real fast" lol. He's fantastic. We both had a huge smile on our faces the entire time. I'm not sure why there's so many reviews saying the instructors do everything and you don't get to do any of it. That's completely untrue. For the first pieces there was obviously more guidance, but by the end, we did pretty much everything except gather and holding the pipe when the piece was knocked off. It's not nearly as hot in there as I thought it would be. We were in jeans and a short sleeve shirt and were fine. There was plenty of cold water that you could get at any time and he explained where to stand to protect yourself from the heat. We'll be taking all our family and friends here when they're in town to experience this! Highly recommended!

I had such a negative experience with the customer service from Rutherford's! It was disheartening…read morethat I had to sleep on it before writing my review. I have been shopping at Rutherford's for almost 25 years. I myself have owned my own business & consider myself a very understanding, positive person in almost every situation life brings upon us. That being said...I also believe the heart of our lives is our Home. More so today than ever before. Home is our safe place to be & recharge. I also entertain at home & many of my friends say I have the gift of hospitality. I am not the least bit pretentious. That saying treat the janitor the same as the CEO is exactly how I've been raised. Thank you, please & a friendly tone go a long way. Excellent Customer Service is so important in business. The human connection can truly save any situation, turn a negative into a positive. We all have that favorite server at our favorite restaurant that we feel are like much loved family. When we make a human connection with others, when they get us we should continue to share with them. In all my business encounters when I find a person who is passionate about their job & executes it with knowledge, friendliness & communication...that's customer service. I want to encourage that relationship by asking for their service, be it my restaurant server, the person I purchase a car, furniture or the person I choose for home decor. This past year I had a lampshade blinged up by Pamela, couldn't have been happier. She had perfect insight & suggestions on how to make my lamp enhance my home. She took into account my colors & my taste. Even though it was a small lamp & a tiny sale, Pamela treated my purchase with the same respect as if it was a million dollar sale. Returning to Rutherford's on Monday to have 3 lampshades blinged I was going to set up an appointment with Pamela. Against my better judgement I let an acquaintance talk me out of it. Should have gone with my gut instinct. Upon entering the store I pretty much had an idea what I wanted, but always love the designers insight cause they are the professionals. I made the choices for 2 out of 3 of my lamps completely by myself. The 3rd shade was more difficult to find a match. Finally I settled on a it will do choice, do I like it, yes...not in love with it. After an hour my brain was cooked. Pamela would have had it completed more timely, she & I were connected on the same color wheel. Ok, so I'm paying for my lampshade jewerly & this employee tells me Wednesday morning pickup. She will call me when my shades are ready. That's a longer turn around than I've ever had but I'm good. Happy to know Rutherford's is busy during this Pandemic. Wednesday morning works, my dinner guests were coming Wednesday night to taste test some new recipes for my future cookbook. Wednesday rolls around & it's 1:00, no phone call, so I call just to touch base. This employee is with another customer, no worries, I ask the person who answered the phone about my shades. She says they have no shades that she is aware of being done, ready for pickup. I leave a message for the employee who helped me, to call when she's available, no panic necessary. 2 1/2 hours later I have had no return phone call, so at 3:30 I call. She tells me she hasn't started my shades yet. No apologizes, no concern. Flat tone, she will have them done by 2:00 on Thursday. I never had tone, I was truly speechless. Ok, I feel like I've been kicked in the stomach, ouch! I'm so very disappointed. My naked lamps for my company to see the minute they enter my home. If I had known it was going to take over 3 days I would have done them myself. BTW, we all tasted some yummy food & we had some interesting dinner conversation. Thursday I never received a phone call either. Do you see the zero Customer Service??! Well, my Thursday was crazy, my Hubby & I raced to Rutherford's knowing they close at 5:30. There's also tons of construction on Lovers. We get there with 3 minutes to spare but the door is already locked. Employees are still inside so I'm about to ring them on my phone when dear Pamela sees us & comes to the door. She recognizes me, she's says your shades look beautiful, you made some excellent choices. We enter the store to pickup my shades & I want to give them a look over. The employee who waited on me...no acknowledgement of me at all! No hope you like your shades, no apologize, not even a hello!!!! NO CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!! The whole time Pamela is waiting on me. It's difficult for me to be critical, but I share with Pamela I'm disappointed that the ribbon on my entry shade is done incorrectly. On the top ribbon it was supposed to be half the size & it's crooked. Pamela offers to fix it but I'm concerned the fabric glue will show. I'll just live with it. Thank You Pamela, you were wonderful, can't say the same for the other woman who gave me zero Customer Service!

I just completed my first-ever drawing classes with artist and art educator, Tina Cauller. One word: phenomenal. It is hard to find beginning drawing classes for adults in the Dallas area, and I couldn't find many reviews of Tina's classes before joining. Now, having completed the course, I wonder if the few prior reviewers had even turned up to class?! I loved her traditional teaching format, which incrementally built lessons on subjects that drawing students have studied for centuries. The excellent and thorough technical instruction, along with a relaxed and supportive art practice environment, gave me time for trial and error. The amount of growth in every student in the class from first to final class was outstanding. Tina has extensive experience and translates it into interesting, engaging, and supportive learning-to-draw lessons, making me believe I can draw anything I set out to. So satisfying and highly recommended. If you have been looking for a beginning drawing class, treat yourself, and don't wait!
