It was supposed to start at 6 pm, but the lady waited and waited for people who didn't even end up showing up. We had to wait almost 20 mins before we could get started, and I didn't think that was a good decision for those of us who showed up on time. They included champagne in the tiniest cup. Luckily, we don't drink, so it didn't matter so much. They also gave us a tiny box of V-Day candy. It was a sweet gesture. All in all, we really enjoyed ourselves. They should put something in place that if people are late, they will need to reschedule, get a credit for future use, or forfeit their money. We shouldn't have to wait over 20 mins to get started. I recommend them. Just be sure to bring your own drinks and snacks/food.

They do everything in their capacity to make your experience Fun and educational! You're allowed to go here with food as well as beer/wine. All kinds of people who come here this is a place where your creative juices can flow and you can just have a good time. Clearly, the owners emphasize and distressing and unplugging from the daily distractions in life. I highly recommend this business if you want to have some time for yourself or if you're genuinely want to go to learn paint or create something beautiful. This would be a great friends night/date night/mom and daughter night/ family night/solo activity.

Loved it! I didn't actually do any crafts tonight and it was my first time checking this place out…read morebut it's super cool and has a nice laid back and inviting feel. There were small groups of friends doing crafts together, a big group crafting for someone's birthday party (they brought cookies and cake and two humongous pizzas; this place allows you to bring your own food and snacks which is so cool!), and an outdoor area in back as well where my group and I hung out. They have feminine hygiene products available in the restroom for those who are in need. They've also got a jar of gigantic Kirkland dog biscuits which I didn't know existed but my dog absolutely loved them so thank you crafts and drafts! Definitely recommend this place as a fun and chill spot to hang out with friends.

It was very fun to try and we spent about 3 hours working on our crafts. We used the stencils, wood burning tool, paint, and colored pencils for our creations. They were super open to let us taste any beers we wanted to try before making our selection. They had 8 beers on tap and then a lot of canned beers and other drinks available as well. Can't wait to go back and work on something else!

My family - including a 12 & 14 yr old - LOVED our experience with Christal. The review from the…read morewoman that took a class in Colorado was judgmental of Christal's home. You will park in a cul-de-sac. So? She has projects ongoing in her yard. So? The other reviewer maybe expected Martha Stewart. Anyway, the four of us have taken Christal's class twice. She lets you use Groupon for her classes (not limited to one Groupon). She gives instructions for about 15 minutes. You cannot use the colored glass that the other reviewer was crying about because it is specially purchased by Christal for her stained-glass business. Makes sense. There are buckets upon buckets of glass pieces in various colors. Any color you could want! She supplies other interesting shapes and sizes of adornments for your project. You have the choice of many items to make - a set of 4 small squares, a large rectangular piece, 2 small rectangles, and some others. These can be shaped into bowls, soap dishes, and other curved/waved designs after the glass cures in the kiln. You need to bring your creativity and your big girl panties though. Christal allows you to use the time as YOU want. And she's brutally honest about "don't park on the grass" and "don't touch the glass for my business." If you are easily offended then her dry humor and quick wit might offend you. We thought she was hilarious, helpful, and creative. The fact that she opens her home so strangers can take time away from television, computers, etc and let their creativity flow is wonderful. Getting our two kiddos out of the house and truly focused on something they could create with their hands....it was invaluable. Both could have spent many more hours there. The time went too quickly. So, if you are open-minded about trying something new and fun, my biggest tip is to take a design with you that you want to create. Using class time to think of your creation eats through time you need for designing your glass. And if you run out of time then book another session! We loved it. I hope you will too.

My husband got us a class as a date activity. We had done a day in a glass studio in Durango,…read moreColorado last year and it was really fun. This one was a bit odd. It was really far away (granted we live in Knightdale) and in a residential neighborhood. You park in the cul-de-sac (I am sure the neighbors love that) and there is a barrel blocking the driveway. The outside of the house has all sorts of junk and tarps and stuff all over (again- lucky neighbors). I get being eccentric and I appreciate the artsy type, but it just seemed like there was junk all in the yard, in the studio and even in the bathroom. It did not feel clean or organized. It is clear this is her work space but I think she needs to have an organized, less clutter space for the classes. We got about 10 minutes of basic instruction and then were off on our own. We did not learn anything cool and were not allowed to play with color and different glass types or do anything other than just cut and grind glass. Our experience in Colorado was SO much better and more creative. It was a 2 hour class so some bottled water or something would have been nice to have been offered. My hubby got a Amazon deal and I have to tell you even at that price it was overpriced for what you get and the teaching you got. To avoid going all of the way back out there we opted to pay $12 to have it shipped to the house and she said over and over how she is really bad at remembering to ship things and to text her in a couple of weeks if we have not gotten it to bug her about it. I got this is not like a professional business because of the nature of it, but it really did not seen to run or feel like something worth paying for.

The instructor is an exceptionally talented artist, but what stood out even more was her ability to teach with patience, clarity, and presence. Her instruction created a calm, focused environment where it was easy to slow down, breathe, and simply be in the process of making art. Each class felt like a meditative respite. For a few hours, I was able to step out of the stress of life and reconnect with creativity, observation, and a sense of inner quiet. That is a rare and meaningful gift. The space itself is welcoming and supportive, and you can feel the care that goes into both the teaching and the environment. I'm deeply grateful for this experience and would highly recommend this art space to anyone looking not only to grow their skills, but to find a peaceful, restorative creative community.

Parking is a little odd (they actually warn you not to park at Carr Mill Mall or you'll get towed) but we found an open space behind the building and walked around to the entrance.

I'd return for the right event.
