“We had such an amazing class with Kadir. We were all beginners and Kadir was so patient with each step and we're all so happy with the end results. Such a unique experience and definitely recommend trying the class! We'll be back!”
“So much fun! Lovely people leading/teaching and they don’t rush you. All around nice vibes and final product is super cute! Thank you, Kadir and team!”
“Keith was amazing! We had a team-building event, and the studio looked so cool. From finding a design to sketching and tufting, everything was great. This was the most fun workshop ever, and we will definitely come back again for the mosaic lamp workshop! Easy access, easy communication, amazing workshop!”
“Rug tufting looks a bit challenging, but after receiving proper instruction, it was so easy. All the colors were set up perfectly, the instruction was great, and Keith was amazing! My design was curby and we could be able to find design ideas in the studio, that one was very helpful. Will come back!”
“I want to be fair and state that learning to rug tuft was a fun and different craft to try with friends over a weekend, and we met some lovely people during the class.
However, the overall organization of the class and the lack of follow-up communication have been frustrating. Similar to another reviewer’s experience, our instructor was juggling multiple classes at once (rug tufting, candle making, and mosaic lamp making), while also handling check-ins and managing people coming and going. Because of this, the class felt less like a guided experience and more like a studio drop-in where we were largely left to figure things out on our own.
We also ran into issues with materials. There was a noticeable lack of yarn colors: no yellow, orange, white, black, or other neutrals were initially available. It wasn’t until we were halfway through that the instructor remembered there were partial yarn rolls tucked away, which could have been helpful earlier on.
The biggest disappointment, though, was related to the advertised add-ons. I had pre-purchased frames through ClassBento so that my friends and I could leave with finished, display-ready pieces. When I asked about them at the start of class, the instructor seemed confused and said "I don't know why that's offered online, we don't have frames here." She suggested I contact the owner and took down my information, but despite reaching out twice, I haven’t received any response.
If the class had simply been a bit informal or chaotic, I could have overlooked it, as the instructor seemed stretched thin and doing her best with no additional support. But the lack of transparency around what’s included, combined with no communication regarding a partial refund for unavailable add-on frames, is disappointing.
I never write reviews, but I felt it was important to share this experience given the operational issues with this class.”
“My partner and I had a lot of fun in this class! We'd never done tufting before but are hooked. Our instructor was great and everyone in the class was super nice and supportive. We'll definitely go back for another class!”
