As a result, we're looking to move some of our larger volume work to our new favorite local vendor. Huge thanks to Tammy!

It was hard to decide prices ranging from $60+ to $7. However, after browsing the selection, my mom and I picked two items each! It took me and her about 2 hours and cost $50, which wasn't bad at all. The only reason I give four stars and not 5 the workers when we walked in were just sitting talking didn't really engage with us or show us around ask if it was our 1st time I had to tell them. Also, when painting, I thought they would come around to see if we needed anything or look at our work and tell us we need more layers I had to ask. However, personally, they were still nice, just not as engaged as i would like. All in all a great experience and super fun I will be back.

My wife and I were excited to end our first ever trip to Ice Fest by making a pottery souvenir. We…read morehad seen the Facebook advertisement to make a coffee mug with Carlisle Ice Fest stencils. However, our experience painting pottery left us very frustrated and determined never to return to this business when we're next in town. We've painted pottery in numerous studios in Maryland and New Hampshire, so we understand the basics of the process. When we entered the studio, no one greeted us or was seemingly working there to answer our questions. We wanted to know if there was a studio fee or if that was included in the pottery prices. Despite advertising the mugs, they were not easily identified as being the special. The staff, and I'm reluctant to actually call them employees, we're giggly teenagers who were more interested in chatting then helping customers. We had to stand in the check out line to get basic questions answered and ended up waiting for the owner to come over to have the stencil process explained. In addition to the lack of support from the staff, the owner/manager was busy running an adjacent store selling teas and other goods. As a result, it appeared no one was actually managing the pottery studio. Focusing on either the pottery studio or the other store instead of poorly running both would have improved everyone's experiences. The owner was gracious enough to ship our mugs to our home in Maryland. However, the packaging was poor and resulted in chipping one mug and completely cracking the other. Luckily, we can use the Japanese kintsugi technique to salvage our mugs as candle holders instead of their intended purpose.

Fast forward a few years and I took classes there with another artist who is fantastic and the lack of professionalism from the owners of the Mud Queen was disgraceful. Not only were they disrespectful and were bullying the venders in that space but were also rude to the customers that were there for a class. They were hovering in the class and talking maliciously about the artist holding the class to the clients taking the class. I will not go to one more pottery class with the Mud Queen as they are bullies and supper unprofessional.

That day I left with a beautiful glass rendition of the Star Barn that I cant wait to show off. Carlee is a true artist. I told her I was looking for a live edge table that looked solid and rustic. Carlee commissioned an artist named Ryan who built the table for us within our budget. To say they nailed it is an understatement. It took our breath away when we saw it. If you are looking for true art and craftsmanship and not "cookie cutter" items to furnish your home you need to consider Moss Creek Art studio in New Cumberland. We will be back! Thanks Carlee and Ryan!! Sincerely, Darrell and Shelly Reider, Mt Joy, PA

Technically, I really didn't "need" these pieces. When I saw them on their Facebook page I fell in love. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching this local small business transform in to the vibrant "Live In Color" it is today. We were greeted warmly as we entered the store. The place is filled with so many wonderful items, but feels like you're walking in to a home. The only thing missing was a couch to sit & read a good book. They even had Blind Date with a Book available! The stars of the store, though, really stand out. The refurbished furniture is beautiful! Large pieces, small pieces, fun, elegant, and sleek are all descriptions to use for the furniture available. Customers have to pick up their own furniture, but there are so many options out there to help with that if you don't have your own truck. We used Uhaul. They have sales. We caught it on a 30% sale! Such a joy! You can even ask them to refurbish your own furniture! I'm thinking about it ;) Check this place out!

Husband has recently gotten into building Gunplas (Japanese model robots, similar to transformers)…read moreand was looking for hobby shops that carry models and tools to customize them. After a quick search we found Kranzels. Located a few blocks from the West Shore Farmers market, they carry a large and wide scale of RC cars, models, Boats, Air Planes and an impressive amount of Gunplas. The Gunplas were a little hard to find but go to the back counter and turn around, there's a HUGE shelf of them to choose from, all grades available. We talked to one of the employees and he informed us of what all models they stocked, when they got the perfect grades in (the highest quality models) and all the paints/gloss/varnishes they stock. They have a loyalty program so for every $100 you spend, you get $5 back. Nice esp if you're a regular you can get a nice little discount. We'll be checking back in a bit to see what new stock is in and when he needs to restock his supplies.
