I visited this art center for the first time today. It was clean, it was designed well, and it was…read moreinteresting. They had many pieces of interesting paintings that were quite pricey. Additionally, they had things made of wood such as turned bowls and clever utensils. They had some beautiful ornaments, made out of ceramic, I bought one of those. It was $50. They had plates and platters and more things than I can name here. They even had jewelry. It's all handmade and beautiful. I look forward to coming back and buying some Christmas gifts. In addition to the art portion of the business, there is a workshop section where people can go to classes and learn ceramics or painting and other things. The woman who was working was very helpful and kind. I look forward to frequency this gallery regularly.

The instruction was excellent, and we had such a great time learning how to visualize and then implement that vision with the paintbrush. I only wish we would've booked two hours instead of 90 minutes to spend a little more time on the details. I highly recommend Valerie and her team for your private event, or for just plain fun. What a blast we had!

I checked out Ghostpepper Glass during the Austin Art Studio Tour and really loved it. They have a…read morebeautiful gallery space with so many unique glass pieces for sale. It's the kind of place where you can slowly wander around and keep noticing new details in each piece. I never made it to their original location, but this new space is big and spacious, which makes it easy to take everything in. It feels open, welcoming, and thoughtfully laid out. After seeing everything, I'm definitely interested in coming back to try one of their workshops at some point. It seems like such a cool, hands-on experience.

Quite a fun large crafts fair put on every year by Hillcrest Baptist Church on the last weekend of…read moreOctober. It's free and it's one of the earliest arts & crafts shows in the area, so you can get a jump on your holiday shopping. Walking in any of the entrances, you will be greeted by a friendly older lady sitting at an information desk who will be happy to answer any questions and hand you a colorful booklet with maps, listing and locations of vendors, and the church's ministries information. Over 80 vendors' booths fill the large and small rooms of this spacious church. Visitors are guided from one room to the next, along a well defined path. All kinds of vendors fill the rooms; unique jewelry makers, handsewn dresses, aprons, kitchen towels, home decor knick-knacks, canned jellies and pickles, and Austin-original items like birdfeeders made from colorful dishes. Some of the items' styling is up-to-date; others are very traditional. Not everything is handmade, and there are a few resellers such as Tupperware, cosmetics, or The Pampered Chef, but they don't overwhelm the feeling of the fair. This year I found cute travel pillowcases and wooden wall art. There's likely something for everyone on your list here. Prices range from reasonable to a downright bargain. In the center of the church is the gym which has several aisles of vendors as well as food for sale. Hillcrest has a large kitchen in the gym which is run by adults but cashiered by the youth group. "Margaret's Chocolate Cake" here is LEGENDARY (with or without nuts). It's a must have; the cake is moist, delicious and flavorful and it rivals any restaurant. You can pre-order a whole cake on their restaurant. They also offer enchilada dinners (not so great), chicken croissant sandwiches and other foods. There's a dining room set up around the corner. It's a fun, family atmosphere. The youth group also helps the vendors set up and tear down their booths. Well done, Hillcrest! They HAVE been operating for 24 years so they know how to do it.

Via a mutual friend, we were invited to the grand opening event. TX Craft is a cool venture that…read moreoffers art and crafts classes for both the young and old. They also have a small boutique that offers unique Texas-themed sundries, including clothing. Last but not least there is a custom furniture maker affiliated with TCC.

Plus 1 was pretty excited to sign up for a ladies night out to wine, socialize, and do an arts and craft class. Friendly folks in a cool country setting.

TIPS FOR VISITING: -WAIVER: If you're a new visitor -- upon…read morestepping inside, turn right and fill out the waiver on the computers by the window first. If you wait in the line to pay, they will ask you to go fill out the waiver first. Then you'll have to go wait again in line to pay. If you've been before, I believe they just keep the waiver on file (not sure if/when it expires). -SOCKS: Don't forget to wear socks. Also, don't forget to take off your socks as soon as you get home to wash them. -SHOES: Remember to put your shoes back on immediately after stepping inside the "shoeless" areas. The shoeless areas are 1) the enclosed baby/toddler area and 2) the main play structure. The baby/toddler area has its own shoe shelf just outside. The main play structure has multiple shoe shelves at various entry points. The reason I emphasize this is that if you're walking around the high-traffic "shoed" areas (arcade, food, etc.) then you're obviously picking up nasty stuff with your socks. Then if you go back into the shoeless play areas, you can track it (and obviously inside your house too). I actually made this mistake because I was used to other indoor playgrounds where you take off your shoes at the front and have to keep them off. For instance, Me Land in Georgetown requires shoes off at the front and then they stay off (including in the bathrooms, yuck). -CLAW MACHINE: The giant claw machine with the huge bouncy balls has great grab and is really easy to win. Probably because it's $5.50 to play so they make a profit either way. You just need to make sure the ball is unobstructed on the sides and it's yours. -SMALL CAROUSEL: The small car carousel at the toddler arcade was free. Not sure if it was just that day or always the case. Either way, press the Start button to test it before you pay. -EXIT PROTOCOL: Prepare to get checked out (stamp scan) -- it's a safety protocol to ensure kids leave with their designated adults. Mt. Playmore is overall pretty great. The main play structure is a bit redundant with less interactive areas than I'd have liked to see. Still fun with a lot of climbing opportunities. Was reasonably easy to follow my 2-year-old through the play structure. PRICES: Very reasonable rates for kids that vary based on age (and also vary slightly on weekends). Only $1.99 each for adults (16+). Overall, I think the rates are really reasonable and the age distinctions are fair. BABY/TODDLER AREA: I really liked the baby/toddler area. First and foremost, it's gated with an attendant who will confirm age if needed. Meaning, it won't get infiltrated by older kids (an annoying reality of many toddler playspaces). Awesome. It was spacious and had quite a few interactive things to do, including the Step2 rollercoaster car track (2 of them). Also a few little cars to drive around in. My 2-year-old enjoyed it. SHOE SHELVES: I love that their shoe shelves are directly outside the shoeless play structures. As I mentioned above, it took me a minute to appreciate the convenience of this set-up since I'm not used to it. But ultimately, it's ideal. ARCADE: The obvious draw here is the arcade. It's a really nice arcade with a variety of large games. There's more old school carnival-type stuff and some new shiny VR games. Overall, a nice selection. It is loud and overwhelming and tough for anyone with sensory issues. There's also a small arcade for younger children right outside the baby/toddler area. This has a small carousel, moving cars and such, and a few games. Also, a good selection. The prize area had a decent number of options available as well -- with tiny trinkets to choose from even if you barely got any points. EXIT/SAFETY: I was a little confused by their exit system. I noticed a line of people standing at the exit ramp (by the prize area). My husband just passed them and went through the gate. Everyone stirred as if they were unaware that they could exit independently? Then the front desk attendants asked us to show our stamps (they're black light activated). I didn't understand why at the time but I looked into it later and it turns out it's a safety measure to ensure that children don't leave with the wrong adult. Definitely appreciate that. Anyway, I'm not sure if there's typically someone manning the gate and scanning people out? Or maybe the gate is just there to keep young kids contained and the waiting families didn't realize that. It was unclear. I didn't see any signs asking people to wait or to check out at the front desk. I appreciate the security system but maybe a little clarity could help.
