I love Calliope Street! It's a fun paint and sip place in the Oviedo Mall. They can host small or…read morelarge groups for events such as birthday parties. I have been a couple times with friends! Process is simple. Make your reservation online. Show up at that date and time and all your supplies are included- canvas, paint, smock. The instructor walks through how to paint that night's painting. They have alcoholic and NA drinks available for purchase. You can bring in food if you would like. I would happily go back to paint again!

I have been looking forward to visiting Calliope Street ever since I heard about the wine slushies…read moremade there. I had finally made it in and it was worth it. As we walked in the store, my eyes wandered from wall to wall. There are displays, paintings, glassware and other items that grabs your attention. We were greeted and spoke with the owner of the store for a while. I ordered The Raven specialty slushie. It is made from mango, strawberry, lemon, rum and triple sec. It was delicious. I had to keep reminding myself to pace myself and not to drink too fast. It was that good. It was not too strong and tasted great. Calliope Street offers painting classes. You only need 4 people minimum for a private party. They not only provide slushies but also offer other alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages for purchase. Now is the time to visit and enjoy everything Calliope has to offer. Calliope Street will be closing after December as the owner is retiring.

We did a girls' night here last Friday. It was awesome! The…read moreowner heard we were bringing food so they had set up a table for our food items, in advance. That was so helpful. Picking your project in advance is required so they can have all your stuff ready. The fine details like colors and stains are decided on the spot. Funny enough, 3 out of 7 of us chose the same project! It was the holiday card display board. But even when that happens, as you can see with my picture, they all turned out very different. The class was booked for three hours and we were indeed there for 3 hours. They sell alcoholic bevvies for $5 and had a great selection. They have multiple bathroom stalls there that are very clean. They have a sink in the back with special soap that takes off any paint you might get on your hands/ nails. The staining process you gotta be careful with and wear the gloves. And the sanding process please be careful. A friend got a huge splinter which was bleeding. They helped us clean it up and put a bandaid on it so she could keep creating. Employees were super helpful and easy to flag when you needed help. But they pretty much roamed around the whole time and jumped in to help workout needing to be called over. I was impressed. They took group photos for us and we left with our beautiful projects! We can't wait to come back. They have events for kids as well.

My girls loved making some pieces for themselves and as gifts. We were able to take our time and enjoy the creative process. It was not crowded when we were there over the weekend and we were not rushed. The staff answered our questions and help make sure we were making the best possible pieces we could. Pick up was easy as well within a week. Got a text it was ready and we drove in to pick up. Great experience and can't wait to go back again!

This place is such a cute hidden gem for board game lovers in Winter Park!…read more It's a cozy shop with a small but well curated selection of games. Despite the limited selection, there was a good diversity of different types of games including some of my favorites, some I've been wanting to try, and some I had never heard of! One of the coolest features of the shop is the incredible selection of candles and wax melts inspired by tabletop gaming. Although they are especially exciting for gamers, I think anyone who loves scents shouldn't miss this line. They had a buy 3, get 1 free promotion so we decided to buy 8 wax melts and had such a hard time narrowing it down to just 8! So far I've been enjoying the "Temple" scent in my house but can't wait to use the other 7 and hopefully try some more eventually. I can't wait to stop back in to the Crafty Gamer. I also saw that they sometimes host candle-making classes and other events, so hopefully I can visit for one of those soon!

We thought it would be smaller and only gave ourselves a little time to be there but the collection was huge! The Picasso set in particular was such a delight, it's so exciting to have the opportunity to see work from someone like him right here in Orlando! We planned to spend a half hour, and 2 hours later we were forcing ourselves to leave because there was still more to look at! The art expert was a delight and answered all our questions and more, really adding to the experience for us. The art expert was also the one who put together the written pieces throughout the exhibit explaining different themes and techniques in the Picasso set and they were all excellent; she had already answered so many of our questions that had arisen naturally from our viewing in the pieces; that's great curating! They were also having a warehouse sale which we are already making plans to try and return for, as well as their next exhibition which is a large set of all original paintings from the last living pupil of Picasso, which will at first be interspersed with some of the current Picasso pieces on display. While we were there they were actually painting the interior wall with a pattern inspired by the work of the coming exhibition, which was really cool to see some behind-the-scenes creative curating at work! I'm definitely adding this great spot to my list of Orlando galleries and museums to frequent. It's places like this that help Orlando become an artistic and cultural center on the world map!
