I was taken aback when I was not ever greeted. I wasn't offered any assistance as I walked around. I attempted to engage the women behind the counter when I was paying, but I felt dismissed. I loved the items I purchased, and the decorative environment is charming. I have been there twice. Unfortunately, the poor customer service spoiled the experience each time. I don't plan on returning.

They support crochet, Tunisian crochet, and knitting. They have classes and the person working there was friendly and knowledgeable.

This is the first time I've ever felt welcome in a local yarn store as someone who prefer crochets.

I've been itching to take a jewelry making class at Amalgam ever since seeing a Groupon deal for…read moreit, and I finally got to go this weekend! I took the 4 hour workshop which was mostly metal working. It was an amazing experience. Wendy is an awesome teacher and explained each step of the process thoroughly. She made herself available to the students and did a lot of one-on-one work. Although we all made the same project (a ring), Wendy made sure there were many opportunities to customize it. You determine the band size of your ring, decide to have a patterned or smooth band, whether or not to have a stone set in the ring, and the color and shape of the stone. I left Amalgam with a beautiful handmade and custom ring! The 10am class went until 2pm with many opportunities for snacks and bathroom breaks in between. The way the class works is Wendy explains each step as you go along and floats around the room to help people complete that step. For the complicated steps (i.e. Soldering), Wendy works with students one by one to ensure safety and correctness. When you're waiting for your turn or letting your ring sit in the "pickling solution" as Wendy calls it, you can relax and do whatever. I snacked (bring food or buy it at the cafe right outside), socialized, and studied for an upcoming exam I had; so, bring things to do or not - just a heads up. Remember to wear close toed shoes, and be ready for an easy, relaxing Saturday at Amalgam if you take the 4 hour workshop, which I highly recommend. It's a fabulous activity for mom/dad and daughter/son dates, a girl/guy's day, or plain ol' self care. Location and parking: The studio is situated in a grouping of buildings that kind of look like bungalows. When pulling into the lot, you won't immediately see Amalgam. You will see a small cafe and a storefront with a big letter "D" on it. Amalgam is between those about 100 ft farther back. There's a small parking lot so if you're going to a class, I would highly recommend showing up early to nab a spot.

Then we got a ton of hands on time with the pottery, about an hour and a half, and then we got to pick from a wide selection of glazes which the artists will apply and then in about 6 weeks we will be able to pick up the pottery. I was blown away by the price of the class. I received it as a gift, but when I learned that it was only $65 per person for a 2 hour class and 2 pieces of pottery I was shocked. I'd highly recommend to anyone and everyone!

Unbeknownst to me at the time, my child wrote her honest review about Color Wheel on Google Review…read more For a child to write a review of their own accord, unprompted by an adult, speaks volumes as to how traumatic her experience was. Instead of sharing my own awful direct experiences with the proprietor here on Yelp, I feel it is best to let my child's words do the "talking". She spent almost 2 years there in the M-F after school program. "It was an interesting experience I felt like not everyone was treated the same the owner is petty and does not treat a certain group of people well .she does not handle situations well. I went there for two years and regret every moment of it . This is not somewhere to go if you are diverse"

Occasionally, I get emails about their programs, but unfortunately we don't reside in Atlanta anymore. I highly recommend the Color Wheel After School Art Studio.

I worked here for only 2 days. My experience was terrible!!! I have been in childcare for 5 years &…read moreI thought this would be a great fit for me. But, instead it was a nightmare I literally hated to come in on those 2 days. Most of the staff had a great attitude towards me & was welcoming when I came in but then there was Maria. She tried to seem like she was so nice but she was so rude to me!!!!! She wouldn't even let me interact with the children in the "space" I was provided. Because she was so CONTROLLING & not sure for herself. The whole school knew that she ran multiple workers away from this daycare because of her controlling behavior. Ms. Jeanie told me don't let her run me away & honestly that kind of scared me because I was thinking like what did I get myself into! Catrina Knight let it all happen. She told me out of her mouth that she had to give Maria a year leave in the past because of this kind of behavior. Which is really unprofessional to tell a new employee. She tried to make me stay in a work environment where I didn't feel comfortable or welcomed. Her father Charles tried to give me this speech about how to overcome the disrespect basically. But, it didn't work for me at all. Then, don't get me started on how small & unsafe this place is for the children. During nap time all of the children in the whole daycare sleeps in the hallway that's so unsanitary & weird to me. And not to mention that she didn't pay me for those days I worked which was to be $19 a hour. So when I resigned a couple days after I reached out to her about the process of me to get paid. She ignored me because she was out of town living her best life. But then she replied she asked me for a mailing address for my check which she received. Then I waited a few more days to see if it would be in the mailbox but it wasn't so I reached out to her again. Then in her words she said "The check will be sent 30 days after your resignation date since we did not receive ample notice. The training check will be received by Aug. 4." So, I waited again at this point I'm being very patient with her. It's August 11th & still haven't received a check!!!!! She will not reply to me & it's very inconsiderate. But the moral of the story is don't work here or send your child here.
