We went to Reclaimed By You as a team event. Jen and Whitney were great to work with! There was…read moreanother woman who helped us but I didn't catch her name. We were a group of 14 and even though their spaces only held 12, they still managed to accommodate us. I thought this would just be stenciling, but as it turns out there's a lot more to it. I think I heard a couple of times, "crafting is hard!" from my teammates. We walked in and were greeted by Jen. The wood they use has such a neat story and my particular "canvas" came from Baltimore and they even had the street it came from. We went upstairs and Whitney took over helping us. We were allowed to bring our own beer/wine and Whitney even found us an Alexa to play music while we did our crafting. Your paint color choices are painted on a wall so you can see how they dry, which was very helpful. Ooo, they even found our company logo and drew it on a sign to welcome us! The whole experience was worth it. We laughed, we got frustrated, and we made some pretty cool art to be proud of. I would definitely recommend reclaimed to anyone looking for some fun team building.

It's been about a year since I started taking pottery classes at Something Earthy and it literally…read morehas been a true joy. Though I still feel pretty insanely novice on the wheel, I've pumped out some pieces that I'm pretty proud of... and many pieces that... could use some work lol. Linda is the owner and head teacher at the studio and she is quite literally the best. She is SUPER friendly, always willing to help, and honestly has become someone who I consider a friend. Something Earthy is not just a studio that offers weekly classes though, there is a pottery shop that is filled with her work, students work, and other local artisan's crafts. As if that isn't a enough, Linda also makes homemade jams and jellys and freeze dried candy that she sells in the store portion. There are also small classes for younger children where they can choose a pre-molded ceramic and paint it. Linda even grows produce and sells it during the season. But yeah, it has become one of my favorite little retreats. This is the epitomy of a hidden gem and I could go on blushing about how amazing this place is for pages, but rather than TLDR-ing you, I'll just say that if you're in the area - or even if you're not - you should stop by shop and inquire about classes.

Unfortunately, my experience during the past two months was not a success. As a virtual beginner,…read moreI did not have six classes in the studio. I had six visits to the studio where I was mostly on my own. After some guidance during the first couple of classes, I was usually left to figure out what to do by myself. I didn't see the owner/instructor many times until an hour or hour and a half of my "class" began. Often when I did see you, it was just a casual hello sort of thing. Far from instruction. Overall, I was provided one or two demos of the various steps. I never mastered centering or trimming. I threw away about 1/4 of my clay because pieces flew off the wheel or the base collapsed. During my third or fourth time in the studio, I specifically remember the owner said to me, "You forgot what we talked about before..." It usually takes beginners three or four times to "get it" and incorporate learning into short term memory... The one time (first and only) the owner showed me glazing, she chided me for leaving the piece in too long. Strangely, that is one of the only pieces I actually have kept. Subsequent glazing was a disaster with tong marks and color unevenness. I threw away four finished pieces. I got some glazing assistance from an experienced "student" on my final two pieces. She was kind enough to help me use the bottles of glaze, find and use the brushes and try a different approach without dipping. Sadly, the base of the plate that I glazed by hand doesn't sit evenly on a surface, so I am not sure it will be the 10th anniversary gift that I intended. When I originally found Something Earthy's website, "class time" and "studio time" were advertised and new students were only taken on a particular schedule. I expected six classes of instruction. When I was a graduate school professor, I was in the classroom with my students for the full scheduled time of classes. I was their guide, their instructor and my assignment was to teach them and expand their knowledge of the subject matter. Advertising "class time" is misleading! I did not ask the owner for refund or concessions of any kind. I shared with her that I wanted to express my deep disappointment in what I experienced, as I was SO hopeful that pottery would become a life-long love for me as it was for her. I also encouraged the owner to either reconsider her approach with beginners or just advertise the studio to experienced artisans.

That by itself was great. They offer art, books, journals, stationery, puzzles, games, and lots of other little knickknacks. Everything is adorable! They also have 3D printers which I think is super unique for a store like this, but it fits perfectly. The figures they make and sell are gorgeous and they can make (or teach you make) custom prints. Actually, many items in the store are customizable. I also met the owner and she was SO nice. Loved it. Will absolutely be back.

This company is going out of business and having a sale to reduce their inventory. This is…read moreobviously why they don't care about how they treat customers, although they will be open for several more months and are still encouraging sales. I placed an order for purple tile and was sent a pale green tile. I sent a polite inquiry that it seemed I had been sent the wrong product. They asked me to send a photo of what I received, so I did. At this point, Kathy told me I "must be color blind", they don't even sell a light green tile like in the photo I sent (although she went on to describe said tile so she was obviously familiar with the light green tile). Kathy was very rude and I asked if they didn't sell me this green tile, then who put it in the box and shipped it to me? Either way it wasn't the purple tile I had ordered. I gave them 3 options for resolving the issue. Replace with correct product, refund, or replace with another purple tile similar to what I had ordered. Kathy responded that since I did not want to resolve this issue (!?) she was just going to refund my money. Below is the purple tile on their website that I ordered, and the pale green tile I received. So no, I'm not color blind.

Hand tools, grinders, molds, and glass, glass, glass! My favorite thing to do is search through the discount bins they have in the front- you can find some real treasures in there!

I've asked before for glass in specific shades and they know exactly which brand has what I'm looking for. If you're considering driving out to come, you won't regret it! Just make sure you have a big enough car to hold everything you get!

A bonfire was burning in the front yard and some guys were relaxing around it, seemingly taking a break from yard work. I followed the sign into what I thought was a small building, to find the shop. Okay, I was wrong. The shop was not exactly small. It had a great selection of ceramic ware, lots of new exposed wood and some great blues playing over the stereo system. I found a funky green spiral looking mug for about $32. it has some heft, holds about 14 ounces and gets lots of compliments at work. You should head over to their website to see what they offer - many types of ceramic ware, classes and even some music series. I'm going to have to make it a mission to get out there a bit more this year.
