This place is fabulous! I wanted to do a girls day for my crafty friend's bday and I'm so glad I chose here! I love that there are so many different options and everyone can choose their own project. It was hard to choose just one. The set up is very organized and it is easy to find the supplies you need. The instructions are very detailed and easy to follow. Nicole is very patient and helpful, but at the same time doesn't intervene unless you ask. She said she wanted us to feel like it was our project. We all left feeling so proud and accomplished. I have my final product proudly on display at home. I can't wait to come back to do more projects. I can't recommend this place enough! read more

Since March I have been taking a myriad of virtual classes hosted through Yelp. Recently, Yelp Phoenix introduced me to Stencil - A DIY Craft Studio. I signed up to take a coaster making class, which will take place soon, but also purchased an additional kit to make. The shipping was fast and I received the kits 3 days before the class. The night I received the kit, I completed the extra craft I purchased, which was the wooden cactus in a pot. Nicole, the owner, didn't cut corners. She was extremely thorough in everything included in completing your kit. There was even a nail to help you pick up the stencil, if needed. The packaging of all the items was great as well. Everything was labeled and matched with the instructions. Every minute detail was accounted for. You could tell the thought put into this, and that was superb. The instructions were so in depth and she made it so you could not screw it up. They were concise and easy to follow, which made completing the project a delight. There were also tips throughout the instructions, which helped. I live in Buffalo, NY and we have DIY studios around town, but it was so refreshing to be able to purchase different and unique crafts that you can't get around here. I highly recommend this studio for crafting, and hope someday I can attend a class in person. read more

I heard about Stencil from a flyer at a local restaurant. I went onto their website and they have their online reservation portal for events. I went with my daughter for a family craft session on a Sunday afternoon. We had a great time! The session was guided which made it really easy to follow. Staff was readily available for questions and they cleaned up easily while we crafted. I had to help my 7 year old along but that didn't take away from anything- we will definitely return. read more

Went here for an event and was pleasantly surprised with all they have to offer. First off Nicole was great very helpful and enthusiastic about the processes. We had 2 options to choose from which was a string art snowflake or a stencil box. I chose the string art cause I've never done that and it was really fun and I think turned out great. While at the studio you could see all the other options they offer and it was limitless , you even have the option of giving them your own design to create . I will definitely be attending another class in the future and if you book a class online or a seat you get $5 off very affordable. Check out there website to see all the great things they can offer. read more

This is such a cute, awesome place if you want to get creative. There is so much to choose from, you can go online to their webpage and see all the different projects they have to create. If you have your own idea of a project you can even let them know your idea and they will work on making it happen. The prices are very reasonable and listed online for easy accessibility. They have Bring your own bottle of wine after 4 P.M. which is awesome ! You can do this with a friend, family member or your significant other. You can even rent out the whole room! I came here for a Yelp Event and I loved the experience. It was truly fun. If you are ever stuck on your project someone will be happily there to assist you. The staff is wonderful. The only con is that this place was very difficult it leads you to a weird ally way and then the entire lot was dark. Not a single outside light was on. read more

Came here for an Elite Perk event. I was able to do a holiday gift box in under 2 hours. This place is so cute, tidy and bright. This places does cool wood working projects. I was so impressed by all of the projects on display. As A type personality, I love the organization of their craft stations. This place would be really fun to host a night out for any group. I will be suggesting to my sorority sisters a sisterhood event. I also like the fact that you can bring wine and there is no cleanup. Woot woot so much better than having peoole over your house to do crafts. read more

I have been many times. Nicole is great! So many fun and cute projects to choose from. Highly recommend

What an amazingly fun evening. We chose the studio time for a group. We packed up wine and cheese and crackers and headed over to Stencil. I met the owner at the Maricopa Home Show and was as impressed by her array of craft projects on display. Our group chose two custom projects and three from the online catalog. We were impressed by the careful instructions, tons of studio help and orderly stations for collecting supplies. Aprons and any imaginable supply was available. We will definitely have another outing here. Check out pics on their FB page and here on Yelp! read more

If you are looking to create something literally from scratch (minus cutting the wood) you've come to the right location. I came with a friend on a whim. We both picked string art creations. Wow!! This is a fantastic craft "shop"!! Yes, Shop. I felt like I was back in Jr. High in Wood-Shop class. Not only did I paint & make something pretty with string BUT... I also, sanded, stained, drilled & hammered the wood for my art piece. Nicole was so very patient with answering all my questions. I took way longer than was scheduled - Thank You!! for letting me take my time. I will DEFINITELY be back to create another "Wood Shop" art piece. I would recommend you take the time to pick out what you want to create before coming in & booking your seat. You get a small discount & it'll save you time. read more

Amazing great place to do stencils/art work. They are very friendly and help with anything needed

This place is awesome! If you love to have fun making things and being creative this is the perfect place to go. We've had the pleasure of going to Stencil twice. Once was for a very cool crafts and pre fixe dinner they put on at Ruth's Chris and the other was at the actual studio. Both times were great and we made fun art projects. I highly recommend you check this place out. It's great for all ages. read more

I loved this place! I hosted my sisters baby shower here on May 19th. It was the perfect location. We created two pieces that we hung on the baby's door and in her room.

Stencil is a fun place for a group of friends, a date night or for whatever reason. Nicole is patient and helpful. She loves what she does. And there are so many great things you can make for yourself or to give to someone. I made string art, which was very fun and therapeutic since you get to use a hammer and nails. I highly recommend for anyone, even if you are not artsy, to try this out. It is a great time! read more

The owner was so friendly and helpful and checked in on us regularly to make sure we were having a great experience. I highly recommend this place for anyone who is looking to have a fun, safe night out with friends or on your own! read more

My friend and I had a great time today along with my 2 girls. There are plenty of fun crafts to choose from and Nicole was a wonderful host. She had our supplies set out for us and the place was very organized. She was very helpful and patient wit us (especially with my 8 year old). My daughter couldn't wait to try her home made bath bombs! read more

Stencil is a great "Maker Space" perfect for any size group and for any occasion where you want to have fun and socialize with your friends or family. There are several crafts that can be made and Nicole the owner offers the option for customized projects that are not listed on her site. Call to see what your cost would be for those special request. All you do is show up and everything you need is provided to do various craft options on site and take them home with you the same day. I have been wanting to try my hand at string art and I finally got a chance to do it here are Stencil. The instruction packets and video were great but if you get stuck and need help the staff is there to guide you. There are soft drinks for sale however they allow you to BYOB so that gives you a great advantage to curate your own group experience. If you just want to do your own craft project weekend are usually available for solo options. read more

We had the BEST time doing holiday crafts at Stencil! Super organized activity that turned out the cutest crafts. The owner was very flexible and helped my six year old with her craft while the rest of us were busy working on our own projects. Will definitely be back! read more

I really enjoyed coming here. It's a very cute studio and very well organized. The place is very clean as well. My sisters and I came in for one of the workshops. Nichole, the owner, was very kind and patient. She walked us through the entire project and the end result was amazing. I would highly reccomend coming here with some friends and having a fun craft day! read more

We went to Stencil with our NCL group last night. I had picked out a personalized craft ahead of time but did not know what to expect. What an awesome place! We got to bring some snacks and beverages and do a workshop class. I am not creative, so to have fun doing this surprised me. I am so proud of the end result. I will definitely be going back to try more fun things. Thank you for helping me be creative! read more

This place is amazing!! Everything is so well organized and so easy to follow! I did the fabric pumpkin craft and it came out so cute! Nicole was very friendly and helpful.

I highly recommend checking this place out! read more

I was looking for a fun activity that my Mom and I could do together and found Stencil. There were so many fun projects to choose from and we had a hard time picking just one. Inside the studio is so cute! I love how Nicole has organized everything and how she's set up a place for all the tools, paints, hardware, etc. I took pictures of the studio --any crafter would be impressed! Loved it and we will be back. read more

We visited Stencil a couple days ago as an activity for mother's day, with my wife and her parents. We had a blast! First, the space at Stencil exudes a lot of creative energy. It makes you want to do ALL of the projects as you walk in. Also there is a wide variety of projects you can undertake. My wife had looked up this place on google. She wanted to customize some of the words we were putting on our projects and Nicole worked patiently with her over email on all customizations and sent us some mock ups to look at. She was very patient and helpful and even suggested some creative quotes to put on our projects. Awesome! As I've said before, the space at Stencil is very creative and organized. There are stations for hardware, painting, tools etc. and small clearly labelled buckets for small items. The experience starts off with Nicole providing a "shopping list" of items and instructions on how to do the project. There are bags conveniently hanging under tables that you carry over to each station to get specific items for your individual project. Very cool, very organized and very detailed! You then come back to your work area and start following the instructions. There are videos you can watch for which Nicole provides individual iPads. However, since it was just the four of us for the evening we asked Nicole to explain to us vs. watching the video and she obliged. She was so helpful and gave us suggestions at the right time to make our projects the best looking, greatest work of art ever! As we moved on to the next steps she would ask us design questions - stain, paint color, nail colors etc. - and would bring out the necessary items so we weren't overwhelmed. We were so impressed by her patience and attention to detail. She even let us customize a few things on the fly as our projects came together and got us some new stencils to meet our needs. Even when one of us messed up paint on the project, Nicole was somehow able to magically recover it so it looked flawless when everything was done! It is unbelievable that this place has been open only for 6 months! We had a great time! We've already hung the projects in the living room and it provides a classy, artsy feel to our space. We can't wait to go back to try some of the other projects. Do make this place part of your next major event. I think Nicole does "team building" events too for local companies. The space can definitely hold a team of 15-20 by the looks of it. Update (05/25) posted pictures of the ladder with the scarves read more

This is now my favorite "go-to" fun thing to do in town! When you want to hang with a friend, but don't want to eat or drink, this is something pretty cool to do that allows conversation and you take something home that you're proud of! I've been in the studio for two projects now, and I've done a few of Nicole's "destination projects" and I'm proud of all of them. I've brought a few friends and even the one that claimed she isn't crazy left with TWO super cute projects! The projects are broken down into easy to understand steps and before you know it, you're an artist and have become crafty! I've even made special requests and Nicole made my dream come true with a very special project for my wedding. The fees are more reasonable than some of the other make and take places in town, PLUS, you get to choose from hundreds of projects - unless you're going to a special event where everyone does the same project. I can't say enough good things about how great this place is! I highly recommend! P.S. It's BYOB after 4pm! read more

I had the Stencil - A DIY Craft Studio come to my house for a mom's night. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. To start, Nicole created a website just for our event for the moms to chose, customize and pay for their craft. Then she arrived right on time with all the supplies needed to make our chosen craft. Nicole was professional, organized and so helpful which put us all at ease as we sanded, stained and nailed or projects together. I would definitely recommend Stencil and look forward to visiting the brick and mortar studio to work on another project. read more

My friend and I went about 2 weeks ago. What a great experience I loved it will be going back again real soon. It was easy to do once you got the hang of it. Instructor was so helpful and my sign turned out great!! read more

We had a great experience. Lots of crafts to choose from. We already have our next project picked out. Nicole is a great teacher. You don't need to be crafty to make something. They walk you through it step by step. Also they do a lot of fundraisers with different organizations. read more

The projects are absolutely adorable and make wonderful, creative gifts! Nicole was awesome. She walked us through the craft process, assisted where needed, and ended up with a specialize wine glass and beer mug! Pricing is reasonable, and the session was a blast. Definitely recommend, and will be going back to do more! read more

This place is great! My friends and I have been to several different craft studios in town and this is my new favorite. I visited on a Sunday afternoon with two girlfriends. We reserved space online ahead of time to save $5.00 off our project (a great perk to entice you to decide ahead of time). This is the most organized craft studio I have ever seen. The owner, Nicole, will walk you through the process of picking up the components of your project, the handwritten directions, and the videos to help throughout your project (if applicable). She is also available for questions throughout. But, she lets you work at your own pace while she works on other upcoming projects. It was so fun! And the method in which her projects are organized, makes a complicated craft seem simple. It made me feel like a crafting pro! I love the fact that you can just show up and make whatever you want and that you do not have to sign up for a particular craft. There are so many great options for projects so my friends and I will be back again and again. I love the project I completed (felt succulents), although we worked more slowly than the projected 2-1/2 hour time frame that was estimated. But, Nicole was so gracious and let us finish without making us feel like we were over-staying our welcome. We can't wait to go back! And its even more appealing that when we do go back we can all do something different! Definitely try this place and bring your friends. You won't be sorry. read more

We had so much fun making our fall pumpkin DIY project. With their instructions and supplies we were able to create works of art! A fantastic activity with friends, coworkers, or the family.

My friend and I had a blast at Stencil this weekend! Nicole, the owner, helped us through the whole process. There were so many choices and the prices were so reasonable. My friend had a custom designed stencil that she used to make a beautiful sign for her art room at home. I chose one of the many already displayed art projects. I loved being able to choose my stain and paint colors to customize my project. Definitely going to visit again! read more
