The people who work here are so nice! We went to the Popcorn Festival where they were selling glass…read morepumpkins. When I went there were only 2 left. I was upset but still bought them (lol). They then informed me after I paid that they found more before I had left the booth. They were so kind & told me I could switch them out. I didn't. I still proceeded to buy another 2. The selection was amazing. So many different colors & variety! The cost of a pumpkin was $55. I would pay to get more next year! They are one of my favorite pieces of decor that I have in my living room. If youre thinking of getting a custom piece or just checking what they have i definitely recommend checking them out!!

Zero. Stars. I have…read morebeen trying to get a good Paintnite event with a group of friends going for years. Never able to realize it: just received notice of the 3rd time that the event I purchased was cancelled suddenly. Absolutely ridiculous. My friend group no longer trusts the events I try to make because they fall through every. single. time. To be honest, it might be the artist's fault since all three were the same artist. (Is there any consequence to them for that? There should be. I would've guaranteed enough people to make it worth it). Regardless, Paintnite staff was not very accommodating, either. They make apologies and say they can take requests, but actually will not (or cannot). What a joke. At some point real soon I am going to demand a full *cash* refund. "Rescheduling" is a joke. 3 years of looking and sifting through the crappy offerings in downtown Chicago area with NOTHING to show for it? Not worth it. I am not even excited about trying it anymore - I can do better by myself. Third time's a charm, I guess. TLDR: sudden cancellations, no refunds, extremely poorly run organization. Do not recommend.

My brother and sis-in-law gave me a Yaymaker gift certificate for my birthday and we decided to do…read morethe Abstract Cow paint event. There weren't very many events in Chicago, most are in the suburbs. We ended up at Glascott's in Lincoln Park, luckily there was something I wanted to paint somewhere close by. There were plenty of boring painting options that I wasn't excited about. Abstract Cow was perfect. The instructor did a really good job overall. This clearly wasn't her first time teaching, and she was entertaining while keeping the instruction clear. The way the room was set up wasn't optimal for seeing what she was doing. The backroom at Glascott's isn't really the best choice for this kind of thing, it was hot, dirty, and dark. That says a lot about Glascott's, but if Yaymaker chooses this venue more than once...meh. I'm actually pretty surprised I left the event looking forward to going to another one. I never expected to enjoy this kind of thing, but Yaymaker does a decent job. If they had more options in locations easier to get to (Paint Your Pet is only at the Itasca Holiday Inn??) I'd probably be planning on another one. Surprisingly enough, my painting actually looks like a cow. My brother and sis-in-law were shocked.

We decided on glass art but can't wait to come back to hand paint some of their pottery, which the selection is far better then anywhere we've ever seen! They also have spin art which is on our list as well! Already planning our birthday party here which will be a refreshing change from bowling. Emily was so patient and fun with my 12yr old, and made sure the design was 100% his! Loved that! Thanks for offering a cool space for our creativity Moth Wing! See ya again soon

There are so many different ceramic paint colors to choose from as well. The fused glass art section has so many beautiful colors of glass to choose from. There are lots of different sizes of the background glass to use and so many different tools to make sure you can create whatever you can think up. They also have spin art and a section of cute crafts for kids in addition to lots of ceramic choices for kids of all ages. The vibe here is so relaxing and peaceful. The people who work here are super friendly and will assist you with any questions you have but they won't hover over you, so you get a great experience just getting lost in your creativity. It's so beautiful inside the studio and it's very cozy feeling. You can reserve groups and birthday parties here too. They host a variety of special events as well. Moth Wing Studios is an excellent addition to Chesterton!
