    3/14/21 Checking out some place I haven't been to before
    John F.

    3/14/21 I have lived in the Virginia area since 2013 and never once knew about this place let alone drive on the backside of the stores. A lot can be found on the dark side of the moon it appears. Whatever signs you have cut and hammered together can be brought to this shop and be made into a masterpiece(s). Kind of reminds me of Woodwork Shop at The Lab School Of Washington. I don't have any woodwork to be done right now, but when I do, I will be sure to check out this shop. The ambience in this shop is uplifting and I could see the job on some kids faces. The smiles got bigger as their artwork came to life. Very cool.

    We had such a fun time on Cider & Donuts Day in September! This place seriously has everything you could think of, so you can pick your own customized project. Our instructor made things so easy and was able to be helpful while still giving everyone space to do their own thing and talk with friends. This is such a great idea for an activity or to make gifts for others. I will definitely be back!

    What a delightful evening! Every aspect of the process was perfectly managed. The instructors were so kind and helpful, and full of encouragement. And check this out- we were there on National Vanilla Ice Cream Day and these darling ladies set up a sundae bar! So much fun!

    I absolutely love this place!

    I absolutely love this place! Owners Raquel and Andy were very hospitable and fun to work with. They helped guide us through the whole process! The time given was from 1-4pm. I didn't think I'd need that long to work on my wooden craft, but I did! It's definitely enjoyable with a group of friends, talking, mingling, and working on the boards together. Location - I knew the area well and never saw the place from the front. I didn't know there were more businesses back of the plaza. But then again, this place opened about less than two months ago or so. Place - so quaint! Loved how it's better to see the products and artwork in person, rather than online. I feel like getting more projects done with a sign for the bathroom and laundry room. Maybe some seasonal stuff! It almost feels farmhouse-ish, and cozy. Plus the paint stain smell. Cost - it was definitely pricey. I was already committed in going and didn't expect the cost to be a lot. But after going, I justified it as it's worth the money! You're paying for their supplies, the time, they give you complimentary drinks and few snacks. I was able to bring in my outside drink - boba tea. BBF - you can BRING your own food/snacks to eat! No added cost! #winning Employees - are so easy and nice to work with. They are patient and ready to assist as needed! Loved their honest input when I was stuck with trying to dry brush my board or use whitewash stain and then dry brush.. Overall, heck yea I'm coming back! Just.. need a coupon discount code please. Hah.

    Finished projects!

    Enjoyed a great evening last night at Board & Brush studio in Fairfax. My stepdaughter had already completed three projects at this location, but I was a raw rookie. Needless to say I was a little overwhelmed by the many project options, stains, finishes, etc. Huge shoutout to our main table support staffer Katie While all of the staff members were friendly and helpful, Katie was amazing! She was efficient, knowledgeable and remarkably patient, as is evidenced by the beautiful and professional looking sign that I took home! I'm already planning my next visit, and even think I'll have the confidence to tackle a "bonus sign".

    Attended a Navy Federal Event It was amazing to learn that this establishment is Veteran owned! A husband and wife team served over 25 years in the U.S. Navy. This is so dear to my heart because my Dad served over 22 years in the U.S. Navy. Great atmosphere and very helpful people! I highly recommend this place!

    Came here yesterday for a work event and I have to say so much about how this was such an awesome experience for me. The place here is awesome, they have a bunch of examples on their walls. As well as great color examples for you to decide on. First off, they are extremely organized here and I know that's why the process of building our boards was so easy. They really make sure you're comfortable and have all the things you need to make sure things aren't too loud or the fumes don't bother you too much. They provide 2 free drinks as a part of your package. It's an awesome time especially if you have a great group. They have good music in the background and it was just an overall great experience to try. The staff is really sweet and easy to work with. They help you throughout the process to make sure you know what you're doing. It's a really great way to have your creative flows going and that's exactly what I did. I would definitely come back and try it here again. Heads up, this is in the back of the shopping center so don't keep circling around the front.

Paced the class well and generally just well done. Second time I went with my wife and our ten year old daughter to do the flowers with Xander. Another great experience with different techniques and again well done with just enough help mixed with freedom to work. We are already looking for more family blacksmithing classes to do. As a note, when I went in December it was a perfect temperature inside with the heat as it was cold outside. In April... even on a cooler day it was very hot inside (which is not a surprise given the heat of the fires) so make sure to dress safely but appropriately. They do have water cups and a refill station for bottles as well as ice for when you are too warm and need to cool off. Well done and other than I wish it was closer to me, zero complaints.

It's could be a little overwhelming at first but everything was explained so well and the entire project was broken down into easily achievable steps. And if you get stuck the instructor is right there to help you. Our instructor was Kyle. He was not overbearing or boring at all! His enthusiasm and encouragement went a long way towards making us feel comfortable. Plus he offered some expert help to make our knives go from butter basic to pointy kitchen. Some need to know info - everything is provided (protective eye wear, aprons, gloves and I did see ear plugs). They have cups and a water fountain but I would probably bring my own water bottle. There are breaks. There are bathrooms that are clean. It is very loud. It is hot. It is hard work and you will most likely be sore the next day. It could be addictive.

    Oh yeah, this is exactly what I needed! After randomly booking this and not really knowing what to…read moreexpect, my son and I showed up on a saturday and were the first appointment. We were greeted by 3 staff members (apologies I don't remember their names). I initially thought this was just a venue to smash stuff but it was explained that this is a mental health venture aimed at spiritual healing. After signing the waivers and donning our PPE, we went in. The wooden structure isn't huge so you cant get running starts or make any long over hear arm movements, but it ended being just the right amount of space to get your smash on. Initially I was caught up in the novelty of smashing things, but a point in time came where that novelty faded and I found myself tapping into an aggression and emotion I did not go there with. It wasn't until I stood there out of breath with my hands sore that I truly understood what this place was for. That session provided a space and avenue for me to truly let go, for just a little bit. If you haven't done that recently (or ever), you need to book a session to understand what im talking about. A challenge was issued to me to put in work on the water heater and I made a decent hole in it but that thing was tough. They sure don't make em like they used to.

I visited a few weeks ago based on a Groupon that I had…read more The staff was extremely helpful in organizing my session and preparing for my appointment. The site was well furnished with safety gear (goggles, gloves, etc.), tools (bats, sledgehammers, etc.) and objects to smash (microwave oven, water heater, glass bottles, etc.). It was stress relieving and fun with the opportunity to damage and destroy inanimate objects in a normally civilized world. I definitely recommend if in the DMV area.

I just wish they had a better drink selection, including hot coffee, since they didn't have it the last time. I got the Korean bowl from the food truck and it was really good. The fish waffles and ice cream were also great. The mini golf is very unique because it's on top of a building, which is pretty rare. I received a lot of compliments for choosing this place. The layout of the mini golf course was great, and it was really fun spending time with colleagues. One recommendation I would suggest is providing paper bags for anyone who wants to take food home, since we were given two tickets to purchase food.
