My company hosted a silk scarf activity for our annual summit where we got to have the owners, Star and Phil, along with their two other workers. The examples were beautiful and I love that each are one of a kind. Phil worked with me on my silk scarf and it was an absolute blast. You work with the worker to choose design and you can participate as much as you want in your own product. The colors are beautiful and the work of art was fantastic read more

I treated my two besties to a unique, amazing and fun birthday experience today at Mayu Silk Art. For the owners, Star and Phillip, teaching silk art dyeing and marbling is clearly a labor of love. The process is both simple and intense, but with incredible patience and good humor, they shepherded us the whole way, so that we could each create the scarf that we wanted in a relatively short period of time. My two friends made truly beautiful and very different scarves, and although I think Star and Phillip kind of wondered why I wanted just a black and white scarf, Star helped me make one that I really like! My two friends raved about their experience, and we plan to get together soon, wearing our wonderful works of art! Thank you, Star and Phillip! read more

My group and I had an AMAZING time last Friday at Mayu Silk Art !!! I have to admit, when I first saw an art workshop on my team's agenda for Friday morning, I wasn't exactly the most enthusiastic. All that changed when I first set foot into the roomy warehouse, near the outskirts of Huntington Beach. I was warmly greeted by Star - one of the co-owners of this shop, along with her husband, Phil. They, along with Linda - played great hosts to my team as we dazzled and discovered our hidden artistic abilities (none that's really needed for this) the morning away. While there are a number of beautiful patterns of scarves that line the wall here - Star and Phil are upfront and cast away any self-doubt you might have about needing any bit of artistic talent. You don't actually need to be an artist yourself - as all three hosts PATIENTLY guide you through creating your very own water-marbled silk art. Phil's whimsically thorough demo started us off - and off we went! Star - ever so patient - guided me with her friendly expertise - as I initially wanted my scarf to look like one of the scarves on display - but then quickly changed my mind once the paint colors settled in - and I went for something more reflective of my mood. The end result was breathtakingly awesome. It really is wonderful to see from start to finish - how you can make your own silk art in this studio. My teammates were equally thrilled and marveled by their own creations. While my group had a private time for our workshop time - Star mentioned that they are happy to accommodate smaller groups to larger events - just call ahead to inquire. They've also setup at corporate events, Universities, traveled across the states (they've been featured in many different news programs). Pricing starts around $43, depending on the length/quality of your "canvas". Parking is relatively easy - especially since we came on a Friday morning - plenty of spots upfront and in the back. Overall, I had a wonderful time - totally appreciate Star's patience as she guided me through the creation of my very own, water-marbled silk scarf. read more

This was such a fun experience! We had a group of friends do this and we had the space to ourselves with the instructors of course! They were very helpful and explained everything we needed to know. I didn't think mine would come out very good but it came out beautifully! I went in wanting one design and came out with a complete opposite of what I had imagined. By doing your own group you are allowed to bring in food and drinks as well! We never at any point felt rushed or pressured to work faster. The paint colors and ideas are so broad you can't go wrong with whatever you choose. The price per scarf was only $49 which isn't bad for the experience and fun you'll have making and designing it yourself! read more

I was signed up for the Silk Scarf Water Marbling class by Renaissance Club and I had so much fun. There were 7 of us signed up at the same time but only three water stations so initially I was wondering if we were going to be there all day, but really once you get going it's pretty fast for each person, approximately 20 min max because you don't want the paint to dry too much before adding the silk. It is amazing watching everyone's creativity come to life and how many different ideas everyone has. What I must say for anyone who will do this, Trust the Process. I am not artistic but I knew which colors I wanted to work with and I knew I wanted my scarf to be darker with a black background not a white background. Halfway through I could not even in my mind's eye foresee how it would look and I thought it wasn't going to come out pretty. I really wanted the hearts trail that you can see in my photo, but while I was creating them I thought I had messed up big time with the colors and the size. But in the end, look how beautiful it came out! The staff guide you through every step of the process from beginning to end so you really can't mess up, but they let you choose everything along the way. There were people of all ages including children there from a different group creating scarves and it was just beautiful to watch everyone. What is really one of the best things is that the owners truly LOVE the trade, Phil is just gushing about the history of how they opened Mayu Silk and how many events they have hosted. I also loved that at the end we were given instructions to take home with us so we won't forget the after care of our scarf to help seal in the ink to prevent fading. I truly enjoyed this class and would love to come back and make another scarf again in the future! read more

As seen on TV: La Unscripted and Kcal news. Mayu Silk Art is a gem nestled in a commercial building area. From the outside, you would never know what magic lies within. Phil and Star are amazing. Mayu silk has been in buisness exactly 10 years to the day when we visited. We came here for a friend and artists birthday. I really Enjoyed learning from Star and Phil all the techniques and options of what possible things could be made. Our crew ended up creating beautiful unique designs. Each one of us designed amazing silk scarves, and interestingly we had our colors similar in common. Honestly, i thought mine would suck because I don't consider myself artistic. I have given myself grace, and realized i am creative and can create beauty if I allow myself the space to ignore the negative self talk and just go with the flow. Thank you Star for giving me the space and patience to guide me in creating my pattern/ design. Tonight was memorable and very healing after the recent events that I have been dealing with personally. Thank you! I am coming back for my bday and this time, making a sarong. 10/10 highly recommend! Tip: yelp check in spend $100 and you get a choice of a free scarf, handkerchief, etc. Tip 2: call ahead and make an appt. Tip 3: Mayu Silk Art has a reputation for doing many corporate events notably at the Ritz Carlton, Monarch Beach Hotel, and private events hosting to international clients who travel from all over the world to learn the techniques to create amazing art. Whether you are solo, a group of 3, or larger corporate event; everyone should experience this at least once! You will thank me later! read more

What an awesome experience. Star and Phillip are amazing to work with and ask you through the process. Once you let go and have fun, your scarf turns out amazing! So many colors to choose from and a billion ways for you to make yourself a unique scarf! It was the perfect place for a birthday celebration. Such a fun time!! Definitely planning to do it again! read more

The service was spectacular! You have so much freedom and reign. They even tell you got to throw out any ideas you may bring with by you and just create! Really worth every penny. This experience is something you can have for a lifetime! The instructors were very funny, sweet and helpful. The selection is great considering they even give you handpicked items to put your design on ( not sure if it's a secret) at the very end. read more

Came here for a private session on Valentine's Day with Star and Phil, and even though we arrived late to our appointment, they were still very nice and accommodating with their time even though we were their last session of the day. They took the time to explain their backstory and where the art comes from, and when the hands-on fun started, they were good at explaining all techniques and provided great encouragement even though we had no idea what we were doing, seeing as it was our first time doing this. Overall we had lots of fun making numerous scarves and experimenting with multiple techniques, colors and patterns. It was wonderful exploring the craft with Star and Phil as we were guided by their mastered artistry, which guaranteed our satisfaction with the scarves we made and brought home. I absolutely recommend taking a session here even if it's a group session! It really was exciting and therapeutic even if you think you're not artistic. It's nearly impossible to not be satisfied with your end results. Thank you Star and Phil! read more

My daughter picked this as our craft sesh (we do one every time I visit her) and we were blown away by how friendly Phil, Star and Edam were, how professional their craft studio is, and how easy and totally addictive this craft is! It is so much FUUUUUUN!! They have patterned scarves decorating their studio walls so you get plenty of inspiration for your own project (we did pareos, but they have scarves, hats, shoes, etc, so you can choose your own item). I decided on a beachy waves with flower decoration, while my daughter chose the Japanese inspired gradient stone look. Every creation is different so you will always have an individualized personal item that you and only you made. Both were so interesting to do, we helped each other as you have to move fast with the bigger items, and both used different techniques which were fascinating to learn. Star and Edam helped us learn these along the way and made sure we used the right techniques, colours and use of the dye bottles to create our fantastic pareos. It is a fascinating, wonderful process and we loved every moment of it. We are proud owners of a beautiful hand crafted pareo now, and I intend to frame mine and hang it on the wall. The studio is easy to find, with free parking right outside the door, a lovely clean restroom, free drinks in the fridge, and they can accommodate almost anyone who wants to make a scarf, from the young to the senior. They take you through the history, do an instructive demo, and answer any and all questions you have with grace and friendship, and plenty of laughs along the way. Please tip generously as every $20 tip they receive gives them enough to make and donate a free scarf to a cancer patient, to brighten up their life. Would I recommend this craft studio? Hell YES! 110% I'm hoping we can return in the future and my daughter is getting a group of friends together to make scarves. If I could give it more than 5* in Yelp I would. It might seem pricey at $44 for a scarf, but it is a lovely silk, it is original and you have hours of creative enjoyment included in that price, plus you can proudly say you made it to the awe of your friends and family, and if you tip enough a cancer patient can enjoy a scarf just as much as you do. Win/win? read more

My friend and I needed to do something artistic, fun, and different, so we decided to check out the silk art business in Huntington Beach. Star and her husband Phil were welcoming, funny, and helpful. They taught us so much, and we love how they offered assistance and reassurance in areas we were confused and worried about. This was much better than paint and sip because we could be creative and come up with our design. I will be returning I loved the experience and it helps that the owners are great company! read more

Mayu Silk Art - Silk scarf designed and created by my 9 yo. - Party & Event Planning Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

This was SO much fun and such a unique activity. Yes, a lot of us like to be crafty. With the abundance of wine and paint companies and color me mine, there aren't too many different options. I saw Mayu Silk Art advertising on Facebook and was highly intrigued by this type of arts and crafts, so I was really excited with Ryan P wanted to do this with me. We were able to book time at their studio (they do have events on the weekends at HB Pier) and we decided on two scarves each. Once there, Phil gave us the lay of the land as we were oohing and aahing over the different scarves on display. It's amazing really. And each one is so different than the last. We got our aprons on and chose designs that spoke to us. I went first and chose my 5-6 colors that I liked. Phil instructed me on where the drops of paint should go and how heavy of a squeeze I should give the bottle. What looks like random paint blobs really turns out to be stunning. I got a lot of compliments on my first one and chose a different color palate for my second one as well as different technique. Once your pattern is set, they place the blank scarf in the water and voila! You have a handmade scarf designed by you! They place it in cold water and then give it us to follow some directions when we get home. There were a lot of people at the studio making scarves so it was nice to see what people were creating. I really love my scarves and I can't wait to give one to my mom for mother's day. It is so fun. I can't recommend it enough. Thanks Phil, Bart and Star! read more

My daughter and I made an appointment to make silk scarfs on a weekday. We were the only people there and had the place to ourselves.

After seeing the Utube videos, I was mezmerized by the beauty of this art form. Then I learned they were having an event only half an hour from home. I HAD to go see for myself. Even convinced my Mom to change her schedule & I took her along. Glad we went early, because they were getting busy as we left. About 6 minutes of instruction and they provided everything needed, including aprons and gloves. Phil showed Mom how to pull her colors with combs to get her desired pattern. Then he let me loose with a wooden skewer to create my free form. We had SO much fun! I want to do it again!! read more

I was looking for a fun, unique, artistic activity to do with three of my grand-daughters and this did not disappoint! The girls are ages 14-9, one special needs. Phil, Star and Rita were absolutely stellar! Phil and Star greeted us and made us feel welcome right away. Phil gave a clear, short tutorial so we knew what to expect, and then they gently guided each of us with just the right amount of help to allow each person's creativity to flow. The result was a wonderful time together, four beautiful, unique silks, and the girls were thrilled and proud of their creations. They are hoping we can do it again! Of the four of us, I am the least artistic and even mine was beautiful! Thank you. Mayu Silk Art! read more
