The decor composed of completed projects and DIY kits for sale are beautifully displayed and inspire you to make a masterpiece of your own. Your workstation is already prepared for you upon arrival. I quickly found my spot and will admit to feeling a tad overwhelmed and inadequate for what I pictured was ahead. However, you're assigned a "helper" to guide you step-by-step as much as needed. The two ladies were amazing in guiding us (it was a girls' night for me) from start to finish in making a piece that I am super proud to hang in our home. It's BYOB. Enough said! I definitely want to go back and do more projects!

I've only lit one out of three but am shocked how well it's performing. (I'm a bit obsessed with candles--haha.) Loved mixing the scents and coming up with whimsical names.

The classes are very beginner friendly and each month there is a different theme.

Finally picked up my finished piece…read more I highly encourage leaving initials or an identifying mark on the bottom of your piece. Also being mindful of how long you completed the class and reaching out to the business for pick-up. Initially I was told an e-mail would be sent letting me know my item was ready for pick-up. As 4 weeks went by without hearing anything I decided to reach out myself. All pieces are kept outside the business in a cabinet - so you can come anytime and collect. Inside were so many pieces and several looked similar - honestly, I almost took someone else's but remembered I placed my initials on the bottom! Took a star off my initial rating due to the paint job. It is patchy and inconsistent; slight bummer but would still recommend the experience.

I received a text only three days later they were ready for pick up! Definitely will return again

We had no expectations for the place since we've never been any place similar. Tipsy Paintbrush is a BYOB art studio that offers weekly classes focusing on various pictures and is available for private parties. There's also a rotating list of artists that teach the classes and offer painting techniques. On the day we attended, our class was full and picture of the night was sunflowers. It's a bright but small studio space. Parking is to be found on the street (namely Charles street which is located behind the studio) since the place only has four to five spaces to its name. There are rows of tables and stools with canvasses that have a sketch of the picture already drawn out. Classes are two hours. As for BYOB, you can bring bottles of wine/beer/spiked cider, etc that can be either be kept at your station or at the back to be shared with the rest of the class. Also, you can bring in snacks (various dips/salsas/crackers/popcorn/cheeses/etc). There are plastic cups and wine glasses available should you not bring any of your own (we brought in our own glasses). The only gripe I have is that the personal station space is pretty tight. In between having space for the canvas, paint, water glass, wine glass/beer bottle, and possible snack, there's not much room to put everything. Once class begins, the instructor will walk you through the science of color mixing and different techniques to bring the painting to life. The most important thing to remember is to have fun. It's just paint! Don't go in with such a critical view of how your work comes out. Our instructor of the night was Gina and she was great. She was really patient and offered some good painting tips! I HIGHLY recommend the Tipsy Paintbrush for a fun night out!

On November 15, I arrived on time for a class at The Tipsy Paintbrush. The class was scheduled for…read more7:00-9:00. The two instructors chose to delay starting the class untill all participants arrived. The class was scheduled to last two hours. After thirty minutes (at 7:30), the class had STILL not started. That is one fourth of the scheduled class time wasted because of late participants. I had other plans after nine o' clock, so I had to leave without painting, A few people should not be allowed to waste the time of people who show up on time. Very bad policy! I was an art teacher for 25 years, and if people were late for class, I would help them catch up....NOT hold up instruction for the majority. I lost my money....not going back! I agree with another reviewer that too many participants were scheduled so the space was simply too tight.

It's a little further rather than going to the Fort Mill location but based off the reviews I took a chance and boy were we greatly pleased. I was able to bring in little nibbles and cocktails for my group to enjoy while working on our projects. Jessica and Grace were our instructors and they were awesome and accommodating. They guided us every step of the way and gave us the confidence needed to make decisions on customizing our pieces. Definitely worth the money and time! Reserving a slot seems very easy to do online but if you are doing a party it gets a little tricky. Thankfully Darby & Jessica were such a great help and remained patient with me throughout the whole process. I called anytime I had questions. The design options are endless and the price starts from $28+. Occasionally they will promote a special for the month at $25 so be sure to check their IG first. If you have a group of 8+ you can reserve the entire studio for 2 hrs for your group with 30 mins to setup prior. There are different options to pay and they can customize it to what works best for you incase you want to pay for the group, some of the group or none of the group! They do accept walk-ins but are closed on Wednesdays!
