My items were worth around $49ish before taxes and I was charged $80 even. This is 100% my fault for not paying attention and I trusted her in good faith. I'm sure it was a mistake. I highly recommend going here, just make sure you know what your items cost before purchasing. Lesson learned. I posted a picture of what I purchased with prices as well. Much love!

My family got here when we they opened. Conner explained how to clean the item and how many coats of paint to put on the item so it stands out. He was attentive and very kind. Was willing to refill all our paint in our trays multiple times and never had a disgruntled attitude. He was the best helper we have ever had. He was fantastic at helping other adults and children around us as well. Was a experience to remember. I recommend this for 3 years old and up, just understand that it could take you 45 minutes or you could be like me and take 3 hours.

I took one start away because I feel like as a paint store they should offer aprons so your clothes won't get paint on them and should offer some sort of paper or pencil to sketch. It was my first time and it was pretty hard free handing my piece. I did have a great time, can't wait to see the results.

I will definitely be taking another class again!

Feels Like Home in Historic Mariposa!…read more Wow! Walking into Mariposa Marketplace right now, I'm instantly wrapped in that cozy Gold Rush charm--the historic John Trabucco building from the late 1800s greets me with its high ceilings, warm wooden floors, and sunlight streaming through the windows. The atmosphere is so welcoming and relaxed, like stepping into a time capsule where I can just slow down, breathe in the old-town air, and browse without a care. The antiques here are pure magic: everywhere I look, there are beautifully displayed vintage glassware, ornate furniture pieces, quirky collectibles, and one-of-a-kind treasures that feel full of stories. Everything's well-kept, thoughtfully arranged, and priced so reasonably--I could spend all afternoon hunting for that perfect find. This spot captures exactly what I love about small-town California: genuine character, friendly vibes, and antiques that make me smile. If you're anywhere near Mariposa or Yosemite, come experience it yourself--you'll feel right at home too!
