Laurie really makes the back experience worthwhile. She was great at helping the group and teaching us what to do. The clay pendant class was nice.

When I got home I quickly "liked" her Facebook page and was amazed at not only the number but the variety of classes that Laurie offers. For only having a brick and mortar location since May 2016 - she has tapped into a market for those of us whom want to be creative but don't want to just sit and paint. From creating your own laundry detergent to designing your own jewelry, Laurie has created a variety of class for every age imaginable. I also recently attending a Sunday Yoga and Craft class (which I believe is going to be a monthly event). An hour of relaxing and gentle yoga followed by crafting (that day we made glass magnets) is the best way to spend a Sunday afternoon. The class was intimate and I loved Laurie's energy and positivity. Can't wait to sign up for another class soon!

They show us all the art pieces you can make and trust me it was a hard decision to pick one. I end up making a tray and my partner decided to go a faux stain glass. Once we picked the art piece we wanted to do. They sat us down and instructed us what to do. I painted a bit then place dry flowers on my tray. When then get to pour the resin on our art pieces. The employees were patience and encouraging with everyone. The resin does takes about 24 hours to harden. They provide to option to leave it there and pick it up next open business day.
