Spent a day creating my first mosaic piece at Breakables. I was pleased with the final product…read more They have a wide array of tiles and pieces, provide the glue, the item to receive the tile pieces and good space to work (little heat on cold days). It's nice it's next to a tea store so you can sip while you work. I thought I'd be finished in an hour but we were there over 3. Initially I thought the prices were high, starting at about $32 for smaller sized things, but after seeing the work, time and tiles involved, it's more than fair. I would have liked for it to be staffed with a helpful person with tiling experience, but the clerk from Picasso's ceramic painting café ran back and forth checking on us and couldn't have been nicer. We were largely on our own, after a brief demo on how to cut tiles. (Needy people and children will perhaps not like the set-up/independence required.) They send you home with a bag of grout to finish it 24 hours after the glue sets. Inventory for tile boards was scant. The finished models showed you what finished products looked like but were not available to make. They had some mosaics on Lucite and had an area for making candles. It was a good first experience. I love the whole artist enclave vibe of the strip of stores here.

Came here recently for a private team-building event for work and we had a blast! 2 hours to walk…read morethrough our chosen painting and come out with a unique canvas piece and some good bonding time. Our instructor Abigail was awesome- very high energy and kind and easy to follow along with. I've taken many painting classes before this and already knew what I was doing so I didn't need as much help, but it was new for most of my coworkers so Abigail was super amazing assisting them when needed or giving them guidance on what to do next. We chose "Broccoli" the cat, and you have the option to follow along with the instructor and paint your canvas exactly like the demo or go your own route- I chose to make mine look like my own sweet kitty so it's fun to have some creative freedom if you so choose. They host a lot of different events here, even a "paint your pet" night. After you come and paint something, if you want something fixed, adjusted or help with it you can come in any saturday morning and the artists will help you adjust your painting for free! Normally, this is a paint & sip place as well so you can bring a bottle of wine or your drink (alcoholic or NA) of choice to sip while you paint which is fun too. Definitely recommend this for a date night, girls night, coming with family or even to one of the events by yourself, it's a great way to wind down and let your inner creative come out!

I always love these Painting with a Twist classes. Last week I had painted my late kitty, CleoAnn -…read moreit came out amazing. However, I had the desire to also paint my late Rajah-Lynn so both paintings could be on the wall at the same time, so I started looking around fora Painting with a Twist class that was doing one soon and found this location was doing it this weekend - PURRFECT! So I paid for my class and sent in my picture so they could trace it out on the canvas for the class. I drove over from Orlando and arrived to find that it wasn't just an outline of my kitty, but a whole charcoal drawing! I could have just walked out with it like that! It was amazing! Abigail and Alex were great. They each walked around and helped or gave suggestions. Three hours flew by! (We all were wishing for just another 15 minutes. LOL) I had a great time and am happy to go home with my paiinting so I can put CleoAnn and Rajah-Lynn together (they were sisters for 11 years). The only suggestion I would make - at the Painting with a Twist I normally go to, the offer a paintable wooden frame for your artwork for a small uncharge. I would gladly have bought the upcharge.... and probably others in that class would have also. (It was already on the sketch when class started and they sent me home with a small "takeout container" of paint to finish at home.) Just a bit of money your shop could be adding to their sales. But all in all, I had a great time. Thank you.

Such a cute, fun place! I've been to places similar to this before but I love how cozy this one…read morefeels. The pottery pieces are probably standard for what most places would charge. Each has the prices labeled on the bottom. You choose one, take a seat, choose your paints, and then spend several hours absorbed into art! It takes awhile because you have to do multiple layers of paint to make the colors show up properly. This place is neat because it's connected to a little cafe. They have an iPad at the connecting doorway so you can order drinks or snacks delivered while you work. We didn't know about that so we didn't do much with it this time but we definitely would in the future!

This was such a fun indoor play experience for my toddler! Everything was so inviting and clean. I…read moreloved that they don't allow shoes inside the play area. Socks are mandatory for everyone. If you don't have socks you can buy socks for $3. Parking is in the back and the main entrance is in the back not off of South Florida. It's open to children up to age 10. Personally I feel that this is more geared to children 7 and under and that might be reaching. They have play for the day options as well as memberships. This was a great option for something indoor to get out of some rainy weather or beat the Florida sun.

When that store closed, I was heartbroken. The studio is such a wonderful place to take a class. The atmosphere is artsy and relaxed and you can't help but have fun. While you take the class, all supplies in the studio are available to you. While I often bring some of my favorites- to know that I can use other supplies and not have to cart everything is a great bonus. You'll go home with lots of completed items as well as lots of ideas on what to make next. The classes are very reasonable and include so much. Now that she's a little closer I only have to travel two hours for a class, but I will do it because she's worth it!
