Frequently Asked Questions

What is your service area? Do you go to my location?

For In-Person Craft Parties, our service area is within Orange County, Ca

- Or - you can contact us before booking directly to find out if your venue is within our service area.

If you are outside our service area, and would still like to book us, we charge a travel fee of $10/mile after the 30th mile mark from our location. Promotional discounts do not apply outside our service area.

Where can we have a party?

You can have the party anywhere as long as there are tables and as long as it's not windy.

You can have it at any participating restaurants, breweries, wineries, recreational areas, etc.

QUICK TIP: If you’re having an outdoor venue on a hot day, be sure to have your party under a shaded area. Keep in mind that it will get dark in the evening, and it can be harder to work without proper lighting. If indoors, be sure to have a large space with plenty of room for everyone to move around.

How big of a table should we have?

A 6 foot folding table can fit about 5-6 participants by itself. With multiple, and when placed side to side horizontally, we can fit more. For instance, two - 6 foot tables, side by side can fit 12 small kids, or 10 adults.

Do you provide the tables and chairs?

We do not provide tables and chairs. If you don't have tables & chairs, please email us and we can work out pricing for bringing our own tables and chairs.

What if my guests are late for the party?

Please ask guests to arrive at least 30 minutes before the painting start time so that we may begin instructing as scheduled. ($60 per hour may be charged if the event starts later than 1 hour of the booked time.)

In cases where we have parties one after another, we will need to begin the session no later than 10-15 minutes after your reserved time.

Depending on the craft and how late the guest is, they may be able to jump right in after the start of instructions.

Can we pay individually (per person)?

For in-person parties: To save time, and to avoid confusion with multiple payments by individuals, the leading host must collect the payments of each participant whether it be cash, check, or electronic before the event.

What is your cancelation & rescheduling policy?

Once you have paid the reservation deposit and/or paid in full, your reserved date and time is confirmed. Check your email for up to date preparation info. Cancelling your reserved event will result in forfeiting your deposit. However, you can RESCHEDULE up to 2 times (14 days) prior to your reserved date. If paid in FULL, you must cancel by notifying us before the 14-day non-refundable period of your initial reserved date for a refund. There is a $100 charge for refunds due to the purchasing of materials.

What if we have less than 10 people

Our pricing is for a minimum of 10 people. You can still book a party at this price and not have 10 guests. We will have supplies for 10, so your guests may be able to make more than one product.
