It is time to update my review after so many years. AR Workshop is still located in the same spot…read morein Wakefield. What has changed is that they now offer even more variety in workshops. They still have all the original workshops but have expanded the options to add candles, blankets, sourdough bread, cookie decorating, canvas to cornhole boards. Some of the classes are for adults and others are for children. It is easy to register on the website. The hard part is selecting your project and design. The staff is friendly and will offer as much help as you need. There is even a gift shop in the front with décor, kits to do projects at home or finished projects if you prefer they make it for you.

Thank you again ladies for welcoming me and I will be back for either a class or just to spend my money!

We love carrying products like Atlenew, Pink Fresh, Lawn Fawn, Spellbinders, Ranger, Simon Hurley and Tim Holtz; just to name a few. They tell us it is the special attention they get when trying to master a new technique that makes them keep coming back to our local and online card and scrapbook classes.

It is our goal to motivate crafter with exciting materials and creative techniques every time they come through our doors.

I took both the short, one day, class and the 5 day class here and both were really great. Bending…read moreglass tubes is way harder than I expected but it's super fun! In the one day class I was making a sleeping cat and I did some of the bigger curves (which are easier) and the professionals did the smaller bits after the class was over. I could not be any happier with the results. I learned a bunch and I love the results. Definitely worth the money because it will make you way cooler than all your friends who don't even have any neon signs in their house.

We had a painting session arranged by our manager (therefore I have no information on cost). We…read morewere able to bring in our own food to enjoy before the painting fun began. Our instructor was Reagan. She was positive, kind, patient, professional, and very talented. We did a very simple painting as we were limited on time and none of us are artists. It was a great teambuilding activity. They did have a bar with beer and wine. The rest of the staff was also very friendly and helpful They are in a plaza so there is plenty of parking

The DLSR Workshop is a great way for a new to DSLR user to get more familiar with the cameras…read morecapabilities. I have only taken the first of several classes Okello offers, "take your camera off program mode". Okello seemed to be very knowledgeable about most all camera makes and models(sony has not made it into his collection however). The class has a schedule beginning with basics and moving onto a little more in-depth camera functions and uses. I rated Okello 5 stars,I cant think of any ways he could possibly improve his classes and teaching methods!! I recommend this class and look forward to Lightroom 3 classes!!
