    You can see this little art walk in about 20 minutes. It's only a block long, but sometimes they have some interesting things to look at. Lots of jewelry artists here, a live band, stuffed animals, scarves, knit stuff. If you're in the area I'd suggest walking by. I saw some pretty cool jewelry this past weekend. Bought some earrings from a local glassmaker. My friend bought a purse made in India and some of the proceeds go back to India. Some vendors accept credit cards and some don't so I'd just bring cash.

    This leisurely stroll with interesting vendors, open in the evening galleries and haunting music went missing a couple of months ago. I hope it returns but I have not found any announcement.

    2nd Saturday Art Walk

    2nd Saturday of each month, they hold the Arts Walk on Linden. They close Linden between Broadway and 1st street. Local vendors display their handmade wares. I've bought a couple of handmade double wrap bracelets which I receive many compliments when I wear with my watch. These are handmade by a single mom, so I feel like I'm helping in some way. I love the atmosphere that this creates, and is a great place to have a date night. Many coffee shows, and restaurants are nearby.

    Akira is truly a gifted artist

    While I enjoyed many venues during the art walk, the highlight was definitely the atmosphere at Hellada Gallery.

Arrived 10 mins early and she was willing to start my session. Class is only 4 people total at a time. MUST call far in advance for BSG - Beginning Stained Glass class. Val explained step by step and showed demonstration when needed. A bit pricey but lots of tools needed. For 2 people it was $170, so $85 pp. I would be interested to take ASG = Advanced Stained Glass class in a future date. Bring something to drink, snacks and dress comfortable. I do wish there were more templates to choose from and more glass colors to choose from. Parking lot isn't an issue.

Well mission accomplished. First and foremost, Val is an amazing and fun instructor. Anything art related really intimidates me but she was very encouraging and patient with me. We both wanted to make glass art related to our dogs and we had so many options to choose from and Val had the perfect selection for beginners like us. Lastly I was surprised by how affordable a class with all the materials provided was. We started out with a simpler project but want to keep progressing and get better and we won't break the bank doing so! We can't wait to go back and I can't wait for you, the reader, to get in there and create something beautiful! Thank you, Val, for everything!

There aren't many places like this in the area, so it's a fun and creative spot to check out. I found them on Instagram and decided to go with some friends. I've been to two craft studios that are similar, so my review is based on experiences from other places. The booking process was super easy--you reserve online with a $10 nonrefundable deposit, which goes toward the final cost of your craft. When we went at 3 PM on a Friday, we were the only group there, so we had the whole space to ourselves. Free street parking was available right in front of the store, which was a plus! Just a heads-up, it's located in an older part of Long Beach, so keep that in mind. The studio itself is absolutely adorable - very girly and charming. It's a smaller space but seems like it could accommodate a few larger groups at a time, so if you're planning to go with a big party, I'd recommend inquiring ahead of time. One thing I really appreciated is that there's no per-person studio fee. The craft prices ranged from around $15-$45, which is similar to other craft studios I've been to. You can decorate a variety of items like jewelry boxes, mirrors, photo frames, claw clips, phone cases, and glass cups. There was a nice selection of beads, charms, glitter, and other craft supplies. Their website and Instagram list monthly specials, and this month's Hello Kitty and Sonny Angel-inspired phone buddies were adorable. The owner was incredibly sweet, and you can tell she puts a lot of love into her business. She originally started Dainty Disco as a gift shop, so there's still a small retail section with cute merchandise available for purchase. A couple of minor things could be improved. The lighting inside the studio wasn't the best--it was a cloudy day, which didn't help, but some additional overhead lighting would have been useful for crafting. Also, a few craft options were sold out; for example, they were out of the larger heart jewelry boxes and only had one smaller one left. I think a section on the website that lists the options for crafts with pictures would have been helpful in guiding customers ahead of time for their choices. Overall, we had a great time, and it was nice to support a small business! They also host monthly craft meet-ups, which I'd love to check out in the future. If you're looking for a fun and creative activity in Long Beach, I definitely recommend giving Dainty Disco a visit and I'm down to come back!

It was my husband's birthday and as we were pressed on availability, I wanted to do something different, yet affordable and local and to my surprise, she checked all of the boxes. I was referred by an associate and it was absolutely perfect, my husband was blown away! What I loved most of all, is that she is so excellent at what she does, that all you need to do is answer a few questions about your likes and dislikes ie. Personality traits and from that alone, she can come up with the most unique ideas that will suit you to a "T". If you're anything like me, it's like you know what you want, but can't quite yourself put it into words, well she take your likes and what's important to you and capture it in such a one of a kind way, like putting words to music, for my husband and myself, it was like an adult play date, a fantasy of sorts. She managed to capture all of the playfulness and freedom that we once experienced as youths, we dropped all of our strict, semi uptight ways that comes so gradually over the years from being responsible adults and we were once again, two carefree youngsters without a care in the world, just enjoying each other's company, in an ambiance so fitting for the occasion. Her attention to detail to capture the most important moments as described to her was so meticulously orchestrated, that I knew right then, if I didn't know before, that this is not only her passion but her life's work. It's RARE these days to find someone so passionate about what they do, that it comes off in there work, in every single detail. My mind was completely at ease. Although it was only a getaway for just a few short hours, we had an epic time, living our very own fairytale, love story @Toni's Crafts and I hope that whoever read this, looking for an adventure of your own and you find yourself short on time, ideas and dare I say funds, Toni's Crafts is definitely the solution to your problems, she will plan an escape modeled just for you and or your party, on a budget that you can afford and yet still give it the same, if not more dedication, as a big, overpriced, party planning company would. She will do her best to work with you just to bring whatever YOUR vision is to life, whatever it is, that YOU want. Unlike those big party places that have preset boring, one size fits all, over priced packages @Toni's Crafts you have the opportunity to be creative just by allowing her to create a celebration dinner, party or whatever you desire, all based off of your imagination. I can not wait to plan my next function with her just to see what she can come up with. Maybe something with the girls, we will see
