The entrance is on the street level but stairs are required to visit the eclectic shop. They do have a webpage you can order from if stairs are an issue for you. I first found Homebody's during a Ladies Night on White as I wouldn't have stumbled onto it on my own as the entrance was in the back. But the unique items in the store were enough to bring me back. Besides the shop, in which you will find candles; stationery; clothing; baby items; items for the home; self care; and much more, they also offer workshops so you can learn some new skills. If you are in Downtown Wake Forest and looking for the perfect gift for someone make sure to stop in Homebody's.

Four people to a class so everyone got plenty of attention/help as needed. Directions were simple to follow and the laid back vibe to the class really made it not intimidating! Each participant was encouraged to choose colors they wanted not to just follow the example. We plan on coming back for another workshop soon...maybe macramé!!

What a great place for a birthday party. My granddaughter had a blast attending this art party…read more This children's art studio is very organized and created a unique birthday party. The kids were thoroughly entertained and the morning went by very quickly. They took a break for some snacks, giving their painting time to dry for the next addition of glitter, feathers and strips of felt. I was very impressed as the person in charge was quick to get their little hands washed up in between their creative outlet. Would take her back here for one of their monthly workshops in the future.

I arrived on a rainy Thursday night. The space was very nice and well-lit, creating a warm and…read morewelcoming atmosphere. I enjoyed the candle-making experience with White Street Market. All of the scents were incredible, and I'm especially pleased with the lemongrass and sage blend (I believe that's the scent I chose). There were a plethora of candle scent selections I was just drawn to lemongrass. There was a wide variety on candles on sale for purchase. A great value for last minute gift ideas. Yuki was so pleasant and welcoming, and I truly appreciated her patience as I asked the same questions multiple times. lol Her support made the experience even better, and I'm grateful for her help with my candle. It was a wonderful experience overall! I was hoping for more opportunities to personalize the branding of my candle. Perhaps you could include blank stickers featuring the Candle Shop name with a space for customers to write our name or intention of their creation. I think this would add an extra layer of value and a personal touch for your customers. Just a suggestion!"

I popped in here one afternoon bc a lunch place that I wanted to go to was closed. Although we didn't find lunch food here, we were curious enough about this place to go inside. We went inside the coffee shop and continued upstairs. We found a huge space with stations on both sides of the room. I enjoyed taking a few minutes rest sitting next to the windows that gave a view onto downtown Wake Forest. The view is spectacular and looking out, I could imagine why artists like to meet here for inspiration. This is a definite Wake Forest gem! I plan on spending a lot of time here.

To find that the store supports local businesses was a bonus, always try to shop local and support when I can. The issue was the 3 employees behind the counter making snide remarks about people shopping in the store and criticizing our purchases. Sorry but I don't think what I purchased was ugly. I can definitely find other places to support locally. As a business owner myself it was a bummer to not feel welcome and appreciated for spending money in the store, but glad we still purchased our items, because we think they are great.

Great shop in Wake Forest!…read more Many different vendors under one roof who have displays of their items. Each area is more like a little shop unmanned. There is a selection of items for everyone. Also they had a couple people there in person doing the business ( one did jewelry and I forgot what the other one was). The staff at the register were friendly as well. Cool little place to check out if you are in Wake Forest.

This school is an absolute waste of time and money. I attended while it was "The School of…read moreCommunication Arts" and it was absurd how poorly managed this place was. Our instructor would leave our classroom after just a couple of minutes with no real direction or instruction. He was busy hanging out with a fellow instructor in one of the other domes. Meanwhile we were doing a drawing class in a poorly lit room where the only light was up by where the instructor would typically teach. He did this for weeks. When our ENTIRE class went to talk to Deborah, and let her know of these problems and a lack of instructor, she told us ALL that we were lying and that the instructor wouldn't do that because he was one of their most esteemed instructors. She wouldn't even walk to the classroom to see if we were telling the truth. How would an entire class be able to leave their class without the instructor wondering what was up and going to look for them. Deborah denied any refunds or rescheduling of classes. I still wish I could get some sort of refund for this place. During admissions, I was told I would be placed in advanced classes because my work already proved I would be wasting my time in beginner classes. Of course when it came time to start, I was placed in beginner classes and they said they wouldn't change them. So I spent money without any ability to get a refund on classes for things I already knew. Half the time I spent teaching my fellow classmates better techniques than the instructors did. I've heard this place is getting shut down. Not the first rodeo the owner has been through like this though. Roger K is an educational crook and so is Deborah.

While out at dinner approximately an hour and a half before the class was scheduled to start, I happened to check my email and saw the class was cancelled. Angela asked for dates we could attend a makeup class and I quickly gave her one that would potentially work. After looking at the dates I quickly emailed her back and told her that wouldn't work and asked for a refund. She told me per her written policy there were no refunds (even when she was the one cancelling the class) but she would give me a take home kit. I quickly replied with the colors for my kits per her request. After that time I've hardly been able to get a reply from her and haven't gotten a single reply in over a month. This has been going on for two months now. I've sent countless emails and reached out on social media and have gotten no response from her. I've grown incredibly frustrated as I'm owed almost $200 and she will not reply. I hate to leave a negative review for anyone but this is incredibly unprofessional to cancel a class last minute and not offer an exception to your cancellation policy or at least reply to a costumer when they are trying to see when they can pick up a take home kit.
