No mess at home is a huge plus, and it's eco-friendly. I also heard they have day camps when school is closed.

A few months ago i had emailed them the first time about a quote, they had their partner company email me and it wasn't like a few hours wait time for a reply, every time i emailed them i would have to wait 3-4 days tops for a RESPONSE. At one point they just stopped replying to me?? I'm never requesting service here again.

The first 3-D printer I ever saw up close, was a Deezmaker "Bukito." I was intrigued because it was…read moretiny, nearly silent, and created precise parts in virtually any shape. A few months later, after researching many printer designs and different brands, I ended up purchasing the big brother, of the Bukito, called the "Bukobot." Since all of this was new to me I thought excellent technical support was critical. Deezmaker is open seven days a week, and you can reach them by email, or by phone, or if you're in the area, in person. Every time I've needed help with something, I've gotten immediate assistance. Best of all, everyone there is not only knowledgeable, but friendly, with none of the attitude that sometimes crops up when you're a beginner asking an expert for help. I've been to the store a dozen times, whenever possible I go to their monthly Meetup, and again and again I've seen a willingness to answer even the most naïve questions. This morning I discovered that a part on my 16-month-old, heavily used printer, had cracked. I drove out to Pasadena, hoping they would have a replacement in stock. Not only did they have it, but they encouraged me to do the work myself while I was there, and provided helpful suggestions, and even let me use their tools to make the repair. If you have any interest in 3-D printing, or simply want to understand something about the mysteries of it, stop by their shop. You will feel truly welcomed, and if you want to delve deeper, I strongly recommend the class they offer, called, "Zero to Plastic," which is a very thorough and well presented introduction to 3-D printing. I've had a lot of fun with my Bukobot, and it has turned into an essential tool in my design studio.

Ah Chanel. The name alone evokes a certain je ne sais…read morequoi, French for "...an indefinable quality that makes something distinctive or attractive". Chanel the brand, named for Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel, remains as fashionable and formidable as its namesake. This pop-up event was at the White House on Sunset, which also hosted our previously attended 50 Shades of Grey pop-up. As we had been here before, we knew the deficits of this location: no restroom (and all these ladies!!), no ventilation and very cramped spaces full of ladies in high heels on a rainy day. This pop-up was to celebrate the launch of the brand's user-generated beauty Instagram community, @welovecoco. The celebrities were all in the house on Wednesday night, but we had to wait for the free tickets via EventBrite for Thursday - Sunday, March 1-4. There were various themed rooms, a photo booth, a pearl-filled bathtub, a makeup mirror that changes your lipstick color as you stare into it, a bed with mirrored ceiling, a swing photo-op, a makeup room with Chanel lipsticks, glosses and crayons were you could try on colors to your heart's content. There were popsicles with lipstick shade names and once the rain stopped, an outdoors makeup experience with National Chanel representatives! My makeup artist was Fred from Florida and he was, in a word, fabulous! He slathered Chanel pink on my waiting lips and showed me how to use a lip crayon and fingers to properly apply blush! He's been with Chanel for ten years, and I appreciated not only his friendliness but also his expertise! No one has ever shown me his blush blending technique using your own fingers before. Loved it. I was hoping that the $37 Chanel lipsticks would come with maybe a 10% discount, but alas, no such luck. They were sold at full retail price plus tax. My favorites were: Rouge Allure 99 Pirate, Rouge Allure Ink 140 Amoureux, Le Rouge Crayon 8 Cassis and Rouge Allure Velvet 40 La Sensuelle. Yelp Challenge 2018: 23/100

February 2016, there was an event for CHANEL 'I Love Coco' where they were promoting two new items:…read morethe Les Vernis nail line, and-my downfall-Rouge Coco Stylo lip color. This was a fun, rock-band based soiree located at Bar Marmont. February 2018, I receive another invite for another CHANEL event, this time at its own Beauty House! Needless to say, I'm in; placing my RSVP for early afternoon opening day. I wasn't sure if parking was provided as it was a couple years ago, so I knew where to find my secret spots in the area since I spend a lot of time over this way. I arrived a little after my designated time. Check in was a breeze, and I was handed a helpful guide of the house. Thankfully this was a rainless day so 'The Garden' area was in full-effect. First stop was to get a touch up under one of the color-coded cabanas, my choice being the red zone. After a brief wait, the friendly artist asked what I was looking for and she went to work. Finally, she handed me a little booklet, asked me to kiss it (of course I nearly missed) and she then provided the shade in the form of a sticker next to the imprint. A very cute idea to remember the colors that you liked! Also on this particular day, lip products were available for purchase right next to the red cabana where I was getting touched up (I believe they had to move this inside on subsequent days into the white room due to the inclement weather, making this more crowded inside than it was intended to be). From then on, it was best to just wander the rooms at your leisure, from the 'Declare with Coral' pearl-filled tub bath to the 'Provoke in Pink' canopy bed. Off the 'bathroom' was the swing room photo booth. The quietest area was the dark-colored 'Dare in Neutral' bar area, which I don't believe served any beverages but they had an oversized vat of No.5 on the top shelf. The poor 'bartender' looked so bored but he gave me one of the cool CHANEL coasters he was fiddling with when I asked. I think off the 'Rebel in Red' room, there was an unlisted white room with a glass coffee table overloaded with lip glosses; I did have to upload that video since that was the first time I ever wanted to destroy a coffee table... The only room I really missed was the 'Inspire In Berry', which seemed really cool since you could virtually apply any color to your lips (minus the wiping and staining we do in real life). Otherwise, I feel I experienced most of the rooms the best I could considering there was quite a crowd, and everyone appeared to be enjoying themselves. So glad I made it to my second CHANEL beauty event, and especially happy that it didn't rain this day! The only regret is a minor one in that I missed out on the popsicles.* If asked if I have a favorite room, that would be the equivalent of asking what my favorite CHANEL lip color was, so I really can't give a solid answer. To be safe: All of them. *Would have gotten this all over my clothing anyway.
