They have an adequate supply of art products but I wish they went deeper on watercolor merchandising, and especially on watercolor paper and journals. The staff is very friendly and helpful . The downside for me is the concrete floors, and the loud talking of the staff-I get sensory overload and really stressed in the space .

I've been to Craftopia a couple different times now, but the girls and myself went to her new…read morelocation for the first time the other day for her candle making class. It was great. The place is really big, easy to find with a nice big sign right on the building and parking right in front. Has a lot of different rooms and a lot of art displayed in each. I loved walking around everywhere and looking at it, it was definitely encouraging us to want to come back and partake in even more classes she has to offer! Cora was even nice enough to give us one of the pieces that she had done that the three of us liked the best. Definitely recommend this place and we'll be back soon! Thanks Cora!

Cora was really good at explaining our options and helping us make our selections. Her space is very welcoming and cozy, I appreciated how she was available for questions and assistance but also gave us free rein to pick and choose scents/colors/materials. For the class fee, you really get a lot out of the lesson time, definitely worth coming to a class and I look forward to coming to some of the other classes in the future!

The pay by the bag thing was a total scam. I tried my best to navigate what was supposed to go in…read morebags and what was off limits but it was a mess. The smallest signs that said "not for bags" were written in sharpie on tape. I was sure I picked all the bag eligible items but when I went to check out every item was rung up. So instead of 7 dollars it came out to 23. In response to owner- I looked for the signs as best I could, I thought all these things I picked out were good to go. The signs are very small and not obvious so it's hard to tell what is individually priced and what's not. Everything in the store has a price on it. But yes next time I will triple read the signs to avoid paying 22 dollars for old pins and beads!:)

So tucked behind the Human Society is a great little studio for those who want to go & try their hand at something new, those who want to create & those that want to explore. This is not the usual #sip&paint experience, it is more. Now, I suggest that you go in the daylight to find it the 1st time, wear something comfortable & be prepared to be inspired. I participated in the Love Letters to Self class and met some really nice ladies. This is a safe place to be yourself, to compliment & encourage others.

As you walk across the street to this building that looks more like a freight warehouse you wonder am I in the right spot? Yes you are, walk up the steps and turn left and you immediately see the studio. Now this was a date day for my wife and I and have never done this before. The staff were supper friendly and were there to give advice, but let you do your own thing. They have lots of pieces to choose from, all prices are in the bottom of the pieces. We selected our pieces and went to work, so how I missed the whole part of "you need a base coat before painting" and I just started to paint. My wife on the other hand listened to the instructions and followed them.. her pieces were painted well, mine looked like my 3 year old grandson painted it. Now we wait for them to be fired in the kiln which takes about 1-2 weeks )depending on how busy they are) to get it back... So for 3 pieces ran about $114ish plus tip. From what the staff states is that it gets busy on the weekends, we arrived at 11:05 and left at around 3ish...

Yeah we unwind the day literally with crocheting projects. This place was literally a candy store for people needing yarn and material for sewing. I bought a pretty sparkling blue and a spring time color. I am uncertain what I may make but I am excited. Probably a pretty throw! Customer service has changed. There are three self checkouts. Two of them take cards but only one take cash. Then there is two regular cashier stands. My friend and I realize that we need to come here for crocheting/knitting and sewing projects. Plus side is there is a sewing machine shop nearby too. In the meantime I will enjoy my goodies.
