Plus there were noshes and libations, so that made the whole experience even more satisfying. Lori was patient with us the whole time, giving us just enough guidance to let our inner artists express themselves. By the end of the evening we held up our masterpieces and were all so thrilled that they turned out so well. Who knew we could become artists? Not us...not until Lori showed us how. I recommend gathering your girlfriends together to enjoy something beyond book club, bunco or just a normal girls' night b**chfest. Thank you, Lori, for giving us a girls' night we will never forget!

I was here for a birthday celebration, which Candle Chemistry is the perfect venue for it!…read more This is my second time doing this, so I went with an intention lolll - a candle and a car scent, that's it! The wall full of candle scents could have gotten me stuck for an hour, but I had an idea in mind, so I went for a combo of 3 scents. I was so glad of the outcome. At one point, I thought I ruined my mix, but our assigned specialist was able to help me recover it! Woot! The birthday girl and her family had so much fun after their first experience and they already want to go back! As far as the value, depending on what you want to make, it goes from $25+ per person, which is very reasonable for a DIY experience. Keep in mind that if you are making a candle, you'll need to wait 2 hours for it to set, so it's best that you plan ahead of time a day out for a lunch or coffee (or even shopping!) around the area.

I was at a Christmas painting class with a church group - basically the driver for a dozen or so…read morelittle old ladies - booked weeks in advance. The studio feels upscale, but it's small, and parking is sparse and hard to find nearby. First impression was that they seemed a bit uptight with beginners and stingy with paint and supplies ... but OK, fine. The main issue came as we were getting everyone settled. They'd over-booked the studio with another overlapping group that afternoon, and were also taking participants in off the street! As a result, there weren't enough stations set up to accommodate everyone. Rather than trying to reschedule the new arrivers or otherwise address the situation, they just kept piling more people into what soon became a cramped, stuffy space. Also, the owner/instructor, Dina, was overbearing and unkind. She talked down to participants and did nothing to help them feel at ease in a new experience. A couple of our ladies - pushed off to the side by the over-capacity crowd - are hard of hearing, and asked Dina to repeat herself once or twice. Her response was a curt "Try and keep up ... or would you like a refund?" It was difficult even for me to hear and follow her instructions over the conversations going on in the room. Zero respect and zero compassion for elderly customers just there with friends to have a good, creative time is reprehensible. I was not alone in this observation - a couple of people in the other mis-scheduled group felt the same way. Suffice it to say ... Dina needs to add some humility and kindness - and some basic business sense - to her toolkit. There are several Paint'n'Sip studios in the downtown area. It can be a fun, engaging, upbeat creative experience. Pending some changes on the part of this studio, though, I'm going to suggest strongly that you choose one of the others.
