I came to this place for a paint splatter party. Me and a group of adults were splattering paint on…read morethe wall and on the floor. It was so much fun and quite therapeutic! The birthday person gets to keep the big canvas that everyone splattered on. Each individual gets their own splatter work of art on a big piece of paper as well. They also do other parties where you can actually paint something instead of just splattering paint. I would recommend this place for both kids and adults who wants to have some fun with paint. It does gets bit messy. But totally fun!

We love coming back and trying different painting styles. We have all the finished art pieces decorating our home and they remind us of the fun we had at the studio.

This is a great paint studio; super quiet (only us and another small group were in the studio on a…read moreSunday afternoon), friendly and knowledgeable staff and they give you a quick demo for the paint pours. My friend and I did the regular acrylic paint pour on the small 8x 10" canvas ($18 for canvas, $20 for wood). We had little cups to mix the different paint colours in, and experimented with the flow and drips. Inspirational to want to try to do this at home. My only comment is that they don't have a large selection of paints. Some are either empty (or soon to be), and are the brands you can get at the dollarstore. But great space to hang out with friends or have a birthday party. They have baked goods and beverages for purchase as well.

Location/Service This place is in the old Midland/Finch…read moreplaza that has Marathon Cafe, Coco Tea. Parking is quite limited and it does get busy - but there are some spots behind the back to use. The place is on the 2nd floor - so you have to head up the stairs by the ends of the plaza. Very spacious inside with a clear section separating between the turfting and fluid bear. Staff were very nice and often gave tips to help you execute with ease. Service I did the fluid bear - which you can choose what size you want, along with figure. It'a set price - and you get to do as many different colouring setup as you like. Often times, you mix 2-3 colours and you let your creativity explore - where you pour it over top, section it out or just re-pour with new colouring. It's a pretty fun experience and perfect for those who aren't very artsy (like myself). Afterwards, they have to let it dry for at least 24-48 hours. So you do need to come back to pick it up - and it's nicely wrapped within a container and ribboning - so it can be a nice gift for display.

Tufting is the latest hobby for DIY enthusiasts! I visited @zuozuotufting and made a mini rug based…read moreon my drawing. How it works: I supplied a design for my rug (mine is 20"x20") and picked out all the colours to match. The entire process took about 1.5 hours and another hour for the staff to trim, glue and put it altogether. It was such a fun experience to do with a date or with a group. I want to come back and make a larger size next time! Tips: Choose a simple design for your first time and try to avoid design with a lot of small details. Book an early time for larger sizes as it will take more time to tuft. We went around 5pm and finished by 6:30, went to grab dinner nearby and came back to pick up the final product. We also ordered bbt during tufting. It was a perfect and fun date #TingsFunThings

I purchased a "date night" package here for my daughter's birthday a few months ago. Because it's…read morelimited to 2 people, it's a few months ahead before you can book a date. I prepaid and booked our session. The facilities are located in the Wychwood art building on the second floor. We arrived early, and the studio was clear, so we were able to begin early. It was a little smaller than I expected, but certainly has everything required. Our staff was super friendly, and reassured us we'd be able to complete our projects. She went through the various pieces we could choose from to make. Both of us went for a solid bird, and blown lamp. We started with the bird. For the bird, we could choose up to 3 colours. She explained what each would look like once applied. She demonstrated what we would be doing, and had us try some practice with the rod. She pulled the molten glass from the furnace, and handed it over to us to roll into the frit colours we selected. She watched as we put the glass in to make sure we applied the right amount of pressure and rolled it before it cooled too much. The pieces then go into the hottest of the 3 furnaces. She stood behind a protective screen while the 2 of us watched with our protective eyewear. We then moved to another bench where we shaped the beaks and tails ourselves with metalworking tongs. She guided us verbally and advised a very strong pinch and pull to shape. Our little creatures then went into the last of the 3 furnaces, at the lowest temp, where they would cool overnight. For our second piece, we would be shaping by blowing rather than tongs. A rubber tube and disposable mouth bit are used, which she demonstrated. She advised that we need to blow pretty forcefully, and watched us practice before saying "when." Again, she drew the molten glass from the first furnace, and handed the rod over for me to apply the frit colours I had chosen. She then manipulated it a bit before I came in with tube in mouth to blow and shape it. Also mind blowing to anticipate that I'd be using my creation at home! For the lamps, they provide a perpetual wick with the finished piecec, and you can get the paraffin oil at a local hardware store. Once again, our second pieces joined our first to cool in the third furnace before we could collect them. It's an expensive experience, but totally worth it. The expertise and special equipment involved are beyond. Our staff was super nice and answered a lot of questions by the time we were done. We were done early, but then we had started early. It was naturally warm in the studio, but the fans made it bearable. You need to return on another day to collect your finished items. They are packed and stored in an outdoor bench box at a house near the studio. Luckily there's some street parking nearby. I didn't have any trouble parking on a close by street and quickly picking up the bagged items in the box. You have 30 days to collect them, or they'll be disposed of. It was a great experience and memory. It was unique, and having the items afterwards is an awesome way to have your own art as a souvenir. I would come back as a gift to other loved ones again.

The solid piece, you can get a glass bird, bubble bowl, blown egg and glass heart. If two people you will have to select the same piece but can choose different colours. It was lots of fun in a sense you dip your glass in the colour beads. But when we bring it to the machine, Minna will help us. For the blowing piece, we have to blow into the glass on our own. It was a fun experience. Good for date nights and celebrations. Check it out!

My friend and I wandered in on a Sunday afternoon to find a children's art class going on. The staff were highly engaged in the class but did briefly stop to greet us and to let them know if we needed anything. The space isn't huge as the majority of it seems to be dedicated to their art classes, but they have the basic supplies, plus some other fun items that are sure to catch your eye. There is a small room which looks to be a gallery of sorts, but it was hard to tell exactly what was going on with the space. As with many of the other stores in The Junction, you can find business cards and pamphlets for other local businesses and artists. April challenge 16/30

At the start, the instructor explained the process, but I noticed he mostly focused on a handful of people, so a few of us (including me) missed some details. We were given a clay like material to roll into a tube and a mold, which we did but then things got a little confusing. After shaping it, he took our rings, wrapped them around the mold, and handed them back. Apparently, we were supposed to carve and design them at that point, but this wasn't clearly communicated, so me and one other person just didn't do anything LOL Luckily, my ring still turned out nice (I wanted something simple anyway), so no complaints there! The place itself is great and worth checking out, but I'd suggest two small improvements: 1. Clearer instructions - Maybe double check that everyone's on the same page before moving forward. 2. Better supplies- They were running low on basics like tissues, cutlery, and plates, which would've made the experience smoother. Still a fun time -just needs a little fine tuning :)

First you book, then you send in a suitable picture and they will trace it on for your first so you can start tufting right away. After you're done, they will seal it with a backing and then have you shave off the excess. Be sure you to have room in your luggage for it if you're from out of town like we were.
