So I searched online for nearby classes because I need someone to watch where I'm going wrong. Ms. Audrey's offered a beginner class at a time that worked for me and a price that was very affordable. The class had 4 other students and was held in her store. She is a patient instructor and made sure everyone was on the same step as we went along. She explained things in a way that just clicked. I will definitely return for a level 2 class.

They bring a passion with them to the expertise they offer you. That's what it's like to step into Ms Audrey's Emporium. The entrance is filled with art projects that invite you to explore within yourself- What do you wish to create? What crafting skill have you been meaning to pick up or grow? What part of you haven't you had a chance to express yet? And then Ms Audrey will ask you what you're interested in making, so she can help you bring it from idea to life! My artistic, seven-year-old daughter and I came to Louisville for spring break and enjoyed spending more than two days with Ms Audrey. We had stopped at the Speed Art Museum on our way into the city. Pro tip: The speed is free on Sundays. My daughter was inspired by some community artwork with mixed media on canvas. We showed a picture of the inspiration to Ms Audrey. She had the perfect materials and know-how to help us create our own masterpiece, inspired by the art we saw at the museum. My daughter did not want to do anything else in the city besides make art with Ms Audrey- we even skipped the children's museum. We learned different techniques for using the materials and I'll definitely be incorporating them as we continue to create at home. Ms Audrey helps you not only bring beauty into the world, but she makes learning a new craft accessible step by step. Her process helps you create while expanding your crafting skills along the way. She offers such a unique experience. As someone who continually strives to bring analog experiences to the younger generations, I fully approve and value the service she brings to the community. Her prices are absolutely affordable for the value and materials she has to offer. If you're considering starting a crafting hobby or working on a specific craft project, go see Ms Audrey.

I made some concrete coasters from scratch while I sipped an espresso martini. The service is prompt, and the specialists are also really kind and knowledgeable. The crafts range from simple to complex, and every craft is very independent! Avoid if you're not into loud noises as the work space is a little small and others and their crafts will be making lots of noise! (Especially the hammer for the leather works!) I've never had a drink here I didn't love, but the espresso martini especially is one of my favorites in the city. Really mellow flavor and very foamy. The Craftery is perfect for bachelorette parties, birthdays, and date nights. Next time skip the fancy dinner and make some concrete coasters instead! Then grab some takeout and enjoy your craft!

My husband and I visited last night for a special event that we pre-booked online. I follow them on instagram and find it the easiest way to see what they have going on. The space is wide open with plenty of seating options... bar, high top and low top tables. There are two bathrooms that were well stocked and very clean. We booked a sugar cookie decorating class with Louisville Cookie Company. I liked that the teacher demonstrated overhead with TV & wore a microphone for all to hear. My husband and I really enjoyed this new experience for a midweek date night. During the class staff rounded tables for drink orders and delivered while we worked. They offered classic & seasonal cocktails for purchase. The cocktails we had were delicious and fairly priced. The Craftery does not serve food but you are able to bring your own in. The Craftery is a great addition to the Nulu area. We are looking forward to coming back for a DIY project.

Classes sell out fast so you MUST make reservations and be prepared it's gonna be booked out months away. I'm ts well worth the wait! We chose the Cooking with Rum by Chef Andrew. The menus are published on their website along with the recipes. Our menu that night was Shrimp and pineapple wrapped in Bacon, entree was Jerk Chicken with rice and dessert was Hummingbird Cake. Chef Andrew is an excellent instructor and his assistants have everything down to a science. You'll be surprised how organized and fluid everything goes. It's truly amazing. This is a hands-on experience which makes it even more exciting. The experience is top notch. I highly recommend. The location is easy to get to. There is street parking if you can find it; but, there's also $5 public parking right across the street which is nice. They have everything you need right there including lockers for your stuff. COUPLE NOTES.... If you get cold like I do.......BRiNG A JACKET!!!!! My hands were turning white I was so cold. There is a tip container that is mentioned at the end of the class along with a scan pic if you would like to leave a tip so heads up on that. Thank you Cooking @ Millie's and Chef Andrew.

So I made a quick call to the store to make sure it was in stock before making the drive. I was quickly transferred to the head of that department, who went and checked, then told me that yes, they were in stock, and quoted me the price. After arriving and finding my pack, I made a point to ask if the woman stocking shelves was the same woman I'd spoken to on the phone. She was, and I thanked her for her help, and we chatted for a bit. She told me she was glad I found everything ok and asked if I came to the store often. I told her that I generally make it to Michaels once a year when it's time to enter my state fair photos. She told me that she shops there even on her days off. At checkout, the pack rang up for higher than the quoted price. When I questioned this, the cashier not only made the point to check the price, but found a coupon, making it cost even less. Everyone I dealt with at this store went above and beyond, all for a once-a-year customer spending less than $10. I'd highly recommend this store for the customer service, non-crafty though I may be.

The streets of Louisville were light on traffic and very few people walking. As we were walking back to the garage we spent some time window shopping. As we near The Alley Theater we stop at the lobby window and look at the cool arts and crafts for sale. At least. ..they weren't officially for sale, yet. We comment on how cool some of the items were when a lady standing nearby overheard our interest. She then told us she was the owner and ahe was opening tomorrow. She gladly offered us the opportunity to go in and shop if we were willing to pay cash and exact change. We couldn't resist and went in. About 20 minutes later we were the first sale for Awesome Opossum! We took a picture with the owner and signed the $5 bill for framing! Since then we've wanted to return and shop during official hours. We stopped by today and this is a great little A&C store along Main Street. This street gets a lot of foot traffic and metered parking is available along the street..... if you can find a spot! The store is located within the lobby of The Alley Theater and, although small, it is filled with a nice variety of arts and crafts and artwork from local artists. We bought a couple of bracelets that were a bit too short. The owner was awesome enough to add a few links to lengthen them and we walked away with some pretty cool stuff. Prices are reasonable and the owner tells us the inventory will rotate. We love supporting local artists and local stores. Awesome Opossum is a great addition to the local business scene.
