My friend and I had the best time designing our own custom sneakers. The vibe was relaxed,…read moreinspiring, and perfect for getting creative without feeling rushed. There were tons of paint colors and supplies to choose from, and the staff was super encouraging and helpful if you needed ideas or guidance. I went with a cartoon-style design on mine, with a sketch outline, bold details, and a hand-drawn look. I LOVE how they turned out. They look like wearable art! My friend went in a totally different direction, which made it even more fun seeing how unique each pair became. It's such a cool concept for a girls' night, date night, birthday, or just something different to do. You walk out with something you actually get to wear and show off. Highly recommend if you're looking for a creative experience that's both fun and memorable!

We all really enjoyed the experience and were so pleased with the help and advice we received from their instructors. I was really appreciative of the way they really stepped in to help my 2 children as they needed, allowing me to keep on working away in my own art project. They have some examples to help give you ideas and believe them when they tell you that they can help you draw items onto your shoes for you to paint. It felt like they are dedicated to helping people carry out the vision they have for their project.

We had a great class at the Paint Cellar! Highly recommend for a great night out with friends…read more We did a class where we painted our states. The states were pre sketched so it made it pretty easy. I certainly can't comment how it would be following along. However, there were a ton of paint color options and the instructor was super happy to give guidance or lay low and followed our lead which I appreciated. BYOB but bring your own cup!

I would definitely recommend this place for private events or just something fun to do. Can't recommend this place enough!

I personally love wine and paint sessions so I was looking forward to this one with family. We…read morestarted 15 mins late and got done 15 mins before time so technically we booked a 2-5pm slot and were done in 2.5 hours. The instructor was good but fast so it was hard to follow every step since she would race through her instructions. This mainly could also be due to the nature of painting we selected since it had alot of measurements and customized colors. But still, someone from the crowd literally asked the instructor to slow down so we could all catch up. It is great for folks who sit up front and do not look at the tv monitor like the back seaters have to use. The color in the tv monitor is way off (beauty of colors and not a technical issue) which can result in a disastrous painting (like my dad's). All in all we had a good time making fun of each other, drinking some wine and trying to follow our instructor as much as we could to get our canvas painted. Satisfied with the experience but the instructors could use some feedback to help everyone paint frame worthy paintings

I have always wanted to try out the plant nights that I have seen. So I was browsing on Groupon and…read moreI came across the coupon for yay maker. The hostess was extremely friendly and she appeared to be very knowledgeable about the plans and how to take care of them. Not only did we get to make our own planter, but we also got to check out a new brewery or 'new to us' as We both had never been to Round Town brewery. The tender there was very courteous and offered samples and even suggested a really good mixture of their beers. For the actual event, it's pretty low-key and casual. You walk in and make sure you find whoever is hosting it so you can check in. Then you find the class that you want and sit there. Whomever is leading the event will walk you through every step of the way and answer any questions you have. The only thing that I felt was a little bit misleading about this event was that you pay for admission and then you also have to pay for a supplies fee on top of that. I feel like it would just be so much easier if you just clumped it all into one free.

I can't believe nobody has reviewed this yet, but let me do the honors and be the first to do so…read more Actually this was my third time attending an event. I like the variety of their pictures as well as the location of their events. They travel to various restaurants to use as venues. Two of my visits have been to the Hard Rock Cafe downtown Indianapolis and one to the Spaghetti Factory since that is fairly close to my home. The restaurant staff tends to be very friendly and you get your choice of the entire menu and bar. So lots of variety, a big plus... but you also need to tip, a little downside... well I do tend to spend way too much on food and drink always... Generally the event is set up in a smaller private room, this way we can paint and follow the instructor without the usual restaurant/bar noises, which is a good thing. The instructors/artists tend to be funny or at least try... there are just so many jokes you can make and so if you go more often, you'll hear the same jokes again. They also try to entertain you with silly games while you wait for your paint to dry, because we all know, just watching the paint dry is not a highly rated activity. So far they have always been helpful if you need more paint, towels, help with the picture, repeat instructions cause you were running your mouth and not paying attention... And let's just mention that you really truly do NOT need any talent in order to paint a picture once the artists break it down for you into little easy to follow steps. And generally there are some discount codes flying around, I found a Groupon for my session and you can win a free event sometimes, and generally they give you a discount code to use for your next event.. that's how they keep you coming back ... a fun experience, a cool picture to brag with and a discount code...

I'd run into an issue but I called the studio, and the woman who answered was super friendly. Karlee, the instructor, was very patient and welcoming. She gave all instructions clearly and made sure we all were caught up before moving on to the next, and still ended the class on time. Their drink menu is great and we all loved the mimosas. The studio is very beautiful with all past paintings on the wall. I was also impressed by the size of the studio. I was told that they need at least 3 people to sign up to run a class, so make sure you grab a few friends and go there!!

Went to paint a cute Santa Claus picture with my adult daughter. At first it was easy to follow the…read moreinstructions and we were having fun. It was slow going though. At some point I guess we ran short of time because the instructor sped up severely. None of the painters were anywhere near the stage that she was talking about. She kept saying don't worry I'll repeat it. Well the repeating was a quick listing of all the things we should be doing, with no chance of actually doing those... like reading a grocery list very quickly. And the urgency that we need to take a group picture now and we could finish our paintings after taking the picture. This gave us about 3 minutes as they were taking our paints and brushes... basically kicking us out the door... that really left a bad taste and ruined the whole night. I understand that the employees would like to go home, but can we maybe have a steady pace instead of waiting for the next step in the beginning and then sprint at the end.

I will never attend another standard paint night again, and I would recommend the space for all sorts of events.

So, on Friday evening March 22nd I had a wonderful opportunity to experience on making my first…read moreever candle. The MXP Shop is on the Northwest side of Indianapolis, off of 79th & Michigan RD, as well as next to Memories Lounge and Just Wing It. Upon, entering the building there's no stairs, low sidewalk, and once in you'll see all the beautiful items in the shop. I was informed by one of the owners(TaKisha) that there are 16 other local Indy vendors at the MXP Shop from selling hair oils, beard oils, shea butter, clothes. Etc. You can do paint on canvas or even join the candle making classes. It took about a 2hrs process for the candle to actually become a wax. The steps on the candle making class are you pick out the glassware for your candle, add the warning sticker at the bottom, put the candle wick stick in the middle, then you'll select your candle fragrance which I chosen lemon, MXP Shop does offer a lot fragrances for the candle making classes. Then, once you select your candle fragrance, you'll pour in the glass, and then it's the waiting game. Since, during my time at the candle making class it was only me there so I spent my time talking with one of the owners at the shop while my candle cool down. Once, my candle wax appears to cool down, I received the candle care info, a free wax melt which I chosen holiday cookie, and the total of my candle making class was $40 plus $4.25 Eventbrite fee. You can find MXP Shop on Eventbrite, they offer classes in the early afternoons to in the evenings, I highly recommend you check it out whether it's the paint on canvas class, or candle making class. Try to experience something new & different you'll enjoy. I must say my first time making a candle was very fun, and a new experience.
