I’m so proud of I love having something to do with my adult friends. The choices are so great! I’m not crafty or artsy at all but have been twice and now have very different creations I’m so proud of. E. Snyder Wonderful enthusiasm and support The best part was that our creativity was met with such wonderful enthusiasm and support. Having the opportunity to have such an intimate and supportive space to be creative is a gift! D. Samargo Such a thoughtful and creative space for toddlers! Nola had the best time! And the Dino headwear is so creative and fun! She has kept in on all day. We are looking forward to more classes. Thank you for offering such a thoughtful and creative space for toddlers!  K. Keels So proud of their work I would just like to say that our two granddaughters thoroughly enjoyed their art class last Saturday.  They were so proud of their work, and your art instructors were so patient and complimentary towards the girls. Thank you so much! K. Fertitta Grateful to experience It was fun to make art prints with Kristin. We all left with our prints in frames. Kristin was so great with the kids and I was grateful to experience and support her business. Kate Bryan - The Small Things A super cool souvenir to bring home We came for the mini terrarium with clay creatures play date and it was a blast! We booked the 4:30 time slot and had the place all to ourselves which was a nice intimate experience. Kristin was super sweet and showed us how to make little birds, mushrooms and snails for our terrariums. It was so much fun getting to relax and bring out our creative side! Not to mention now we have a super cool souvenir to bring home that we made (we’re from VT). I would highly recommend to anyone of any age! J. LaFond Will forever be part of our memories The experience will forever be part of our memories. It was an epic component that added to Victoria’s birthday weekend. The final results was awesome. I love our glasses. Thank you guys for everything. You ladies rock! R. Bean A fun memory maker and great bonding time This was a fun memory maker and great bonding time. TR Makers Co made it very easy and straightforward and handled everything. L. Keigley We loved every minute of it! Our next adventure of the day took us to, TR Makers Company.  This is an adorable art studio where you can have play dates, parties, attend classes, or even just stop by to shop.  We had a play date making gelli prints and had the best time! The staff did such a great job leading the project and helping us make fun art work! We have never done something like this as a family and we loved every minute of it! Brianna Steele - Adventures of a Twin Mom Such great fun, but also skillful things to do The farm set up for the children to play with was absolutely wonderful! They thought of such great fun, but also skillful things to do. And so beautifully made!  The creativeness of the experience and the kindness and attentiveness of the staff will be remembered. My daughter and I both loved it!   S. Kuhn
