Okay, this was fun!! I have been wanting to paint pottery for a while since it's just something I…read morehad never done. This location is in the same shopping center as my favorite Starbucks so we finally decided to stop in one day. 4 hours later... we were done! My wife and I chose like the biggest ones to paint but they don't have a sitting fee (I think that's what she called it) so we took our time and painted the cutest gnome and Darth Vader ever! The prices are listed right one the piece you chose and that includes the item, the paint, and the glaze. Pretty fantastic deal! We spent $75 total and like I said, they were very large pieces. The place was packed when we went but it didn't feel overwhelming or loud. The color options seem endless. Some solids, some with sparkles, some with flecks. The brushes are a little worn so I think I may bring my own next time if that is allowed but there are plenty to route through to find what you're looking for. Best part, the variety they have to chose from! The whole store is lined with pieces including the upcoming holiday, fantasy, garden, kitchen flatware and mugs, and so much more. The place is family owned and much of the pottery they pour (again, I think that's the right'ish way to say that...). Either way, its a small business and we love supporting small businesses! We got a call when our items were glazed and ready to go, about 4 days later.

I recently had four pictures reframed, all different sizes. The cost was right around $300. One of…read morethe pictures was a large size, 16 x 20. While we were hanging the picture this weekend, that particular frame did not have glass in it. The other three framed pictures had glass. I brought the picture in to show them there was no glass. He looked at my invoices and told me that I wasn't charged for the glass for that frame and another frame, an 8x10. Four newly framed pictures, three had glass , one did not. ????? Why that particular frame, I don't know. $26 later, I paid for the glass. He said he wouldn't charge me for the 8x10 glass that they "gave " me. The employee had to redo the back and everything that it entails to put the glass in, that should have been put in the first time. I just assumed that if you buy a picture frame and he asks, what kind of glass it was that I wanted, he would put glass in all of them. I gave them my information including my phone number when I placed the order. Common sense would have been to call me and this could have been taken care of in two minutes. Customer Service could use an upgrade.

We have been going here for almost 2 years. We always had what I call pleasant experiences until…read moretoday. I understand that accidents happen first off. The employee clearly stated that she broke my piece during the glaze dipping process. She fired it anyhow so I could see how it turned out, but clearly stated I was not allowed to take the piece with me. Upon further inspection of my piece it was altered in other ways as the lettering I had painted on had clearly been smeared and an attempt to clean it off had been made. I was then told I could come back and paint another piece for "free". No, not free. I already paid for it and was not taking a completed piece home with me. Oh and laughing about it didn't help matters ladies. We will not be back.

I have always loved this store and can waste more than an hour shopping for any and every project I…read moremay take on or complete in the next 5 years, but the store is very dated. That said, the staff has never been less than kind, patient, helpful and accommodating to myself and my questions. The myriad of coupons can make it a little frustrating at check out, but with the help of the staff, I always leave happy. Today, I had a long and slightly bumpy day, and the girl who helped me find my item for a kids' school project was also my checker and was so genuine I wanted to hug her almost. Thank you for hiring great staff who knows their crafty stuff!

Brought my kids in to make bracelets on our way home from breakfast. Came in the next day because I brought in some beads of my own that I picked up on my road trip.

I've brought in special needs adults three times and each time we were treated graciously;…read moreemployees made sure we were well taken care of. The one employee (didn't get name) was very patient with the nonverbal adult I was with. The next time I was with that same adult, plus another who was very into the experience and wanted a special bracelet for her doll, which meant the owner (Cheyenne) had to figure out the sizing of the string. She was very patient and helpful. I had also explained that the other individual didn't have activity money from our agency because she'd used it all up, so could she just have a box of "old beads from the back" that she could tinker with. Cheyenne took it upon herself to offer her two bracelets on the house. I'll be taking all future individuals to this bead store! The bead selection is overwhelmingly extensive. You'll find what you're looking for.

What a gem in Colorado Springs! This would be perfect for a mother/daughter outing (old enough and…read moremature enough to work with the soldering iron), a date night, or a girls night out! I initially found this place because they were offering a fun class "sip and solder" where you could try a small stained glass project AND bring your own adult beverages. I chose to make a narwhal! What a blast! Excellent instruction, fun project, very hands-on, and lots of different stained glass options! Others in our class made a sailboat, a cat, a jester hat, a butterfly, and an owl. I can't wait to come back and try some other glass projects that I always wondered how to make, but didn't think I'd have a chance to learn! They have a wide variety of classes and while the space isn't like these newer, more trendy art studios, it is still a great atmosphere. I can't wait to go back again!
