I've been wanting to try a sip and paint place and I was so excited when my friend wanted to come…read morehere for her birthday celebration! We were a party of 7, and we don't paint. If we have, it was definitely years ago LOL. It was cool that they had a small bar and drinks were a reasonable price! Our initial impression was that we were kind of anxious, considering our lack of experience, short time frame, and complexity of the painting. However, Heather (our instructor) began the session by explaining that if it's easier for us to just paint whatever we want or not paint at all, that would be fine. We weren't going to do that but having the reassurance made us feel so much more relieved! It was very easy to follow along the steps and it was actually really fun for our group! Towards the end, we did feel rushed because we were past the session and have not gotten to the last steps, but Heather was able to quickly run us through them and then when she finished, we were still free to sit for a bit to finish up the painting. The experience was very enjoyable for my first time here and even though my painting wasn't the best, I would definitely come back!

This was my first painting event, and overall it was a great experience. When I arrived, I didn't…read morerealize there was an entrance from the parking lot that served as the main/front door, so I came in through the back and waited to be seated. After a few minutes, a staff member guided us to the front to order drinks before we were seated. The painting portion was a pleasant experience, especially with Heather as the instructor. She explained each step clearly and demonstrated how to paint the picture in an easy to follow way. No prior painting experience is needed, which makes it perfect for first timers. That said, the class felt very structured, almost like being back in school with constant instructions. While I did enjoy the experience overall, I think it might feel a bit stressful as a team bonding activity. Trying to keep up with the pace while also wanting to talk with friends gave me flashbacks to college classes.

I had a great time learning the art of mosaic at the Mosaic Gardens. I had to sign it up for the…read moreChristmas tree shop through EventBrite. The instructor is an artist called Nancy, who also worked for many years in the school district as art teacher. She is very nice and can provide advice and helpful tips. The other people at the workshop were also very nice, some of them had been there before. I felt quite welcome and among friends. The workshop also provided a few snacks such as crackers, ham cheese, brownies, soft drinks. The workshop for the Christmas tree was split in two days because on the first day you have to glue the mosaic to the tree and on the second day, you apply the grout. So make sure that you have allocated enough time in your calendar for both. it was quite a relaxing workshop and I found that I actually slept much better overnight, which was an added benefit! I really enjoyed myself and hope to check out their calendar for other workshops to take. The studio is at the back of the instructors house and it is also open during weekends over certain hours for open studio. I noticed that some of the people working on their own pieces during open studio were doing some phenomenal pieces. There is a huge assortment of mosaic that you can use in your creations. Highly recommended.
