I did a glass fusion class here with my wife, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it…read more We got a groupon for it, and went not being sure of what to expect. We've never worked with glass before, but the staff explained the decorative options well and had plenty of materials and tools available. The staff was always helpful and very friendly, and did a great job supervising the class and helping out when needed. We paid the extra $10 each to 'slump' our flat glass discs into bowl shape after they are melted. I would have liked a slightly curved plate option but that wasn't available. This requires a second run through the kiln, so the price is understandable. Sadly, it may take up to 4 weeks for the plates to finish the fusing process, although we saw some finished examples that looked gorgeous. I had one minor complaint, and that's only because I'm being nit-picky: the staff was hard to find sometimes during the class. There were plenty of staff members there, I just kept forgetting who they were since they didn't have nametags or aprons or anything to identify them.

My sisters and I visited Firehouse Pottery for a Sip n' Paint event last night. It was a blast! The…read moreclass can take up to 30 people I believe but our class only had 8 people including us 4. I enjoyed the small class as it felt more personable and by the end all of us were chit chatting and having a great time. Our instructor Kim was very helpful and fun. The event was 3 hours which I think was perfect. I liked that we painted and then took small breaks to let the paint dry. It wasn't just paint, paint, paint. The shop is super cute and very clean. I can't wait to go back for another Sip n' Paint event or a glass fusion class! Kim said she wanted to try doing a jewelry making class which I would definitely attend! If your looking for a relaxing and fun night out with your girlfriends, significant other or anyone I highly recommend checking one of these events out!

First and foremost, if you're searching for THE perfect daycare then good luck to you. There is no…read moresuch thing. Only the perfect fit for you and your child. As someone who's child had home care for 2 years I was very apprehensive to send my child to any daycare. Also, being new to the area I didn't have a "shoulder to lean on" so to speak. We had planned on looking at all of the centers in the area before making a decision and even visited 2 of them prior to BP. Upon entering BP and meeting the director (Holly) and a couple of the teachers, I was already sold before they were done there presentation of the center. Their was something warm and inviting that we got from the folks at BP, that we did not feel elsewhere. Fast forward almost 1 year later and our intuition fortunately proved to be spot on. From Day 1 they have provided an excellent environment for our daughter to develop both mentally and socially and they constantly are doing the extra "little things" that we as parents want for our kids. Our child's teachers have been great and I'm in the center enough to know that all age groups are getting the same genuine care and attention. As a matter of fact I liked BP so much I decided to have another child, just so I could send them there. All jokes aside. If you are looking for quality, attentive and safe care at a very reasonable price, I would look no further.

They had sooo many wooden pieces and ceramics to choose from. And not the lame generic ones you see in other paint shops. Like stuff I actually hung up. I pained a layered Sanderson sister sign for Halloween and she did a small pumpkin. Prices are very reasonable. I'll def be back, maybe even by myself for some me time.

They offer mainly wood projects where you can sign up online for specific design classes (typically seasonal ones) and customize some of the stencils. They also have open paint sessions with no registration needed where there are pre-made designs to choose from. Once you have your project, you pick your wood stain, and paint colors for the design from many options, of which they have preview boards of to see how it would look. I'm not a very creative person, but the owners are so nice and helpful on instructing you how to do each step and making suggestions if you want. It's nearly impossible to mess up with the stencils, and then you have a truly unique piece to put around your house! Some are better for inside, some are great porch decorations, but definitely try to find a friend and go support a local business.

A Beautiful Small Farm Up in Northern Maryland…read more SITREP I had a joyful opportunity to travel to Northern Maryland and visit with Eddie & Laurie Downey, the very pleasant owners of the Downey Family Farm in Upperco, Maryland. THE SETUP But although I say "farm", it's MORE like a Ranch or even a Homestead, cause this wonderful spot raises BIG cattle, and by "BIG" cattle I mean TEXAS LONGHORNS! Eddie explained the fantastic inner workings of this enterprise, including the "studding"of the cows by visiting bulls! It was very entertaining to see Eddie give the longhorns treats, especially the baby longhorns. You can see the full extent of the farm's enterprises by visiting the their website link above.
