We'll be back! - It was very quiet and we could paint relaxed. The figures have been very difficult, which was a nice challenge.

Wonderful experience! - Very relaxing experience. It was fun to create your own piece of art expression with friends. We had an entertaining time together painting our own version of an Hakata art piece. Though our finished products didn't quite live up to store standards, they will look nice in our homes and bring memories of the time we spent together with our friends.

Fantastic time - I had a fantastic time picking out a figurine and painting it! They provided examples for inspiration, which was really helpful, and then let us get creative with our designs. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming—she even brought us some delicious Japanese hot tea to enjoy while we painted. The whole experience was fun and relaxing. I highly recommend it!

Doll painting fun - Lots of fun painting with family. Not really a class more like provision of materials. The ladies operating the store were nice. Would do it again
