Hammer & Stain North Shore

My friend and I had an awesome time celebrating "Christmas in July" with Dara and the other lovely participants! The environment was super chill, and of course Dara was great at helping along the way. I love having an affordable creative space nearby, and within walking distance to all the great food and bars downtown. This was my first visit but certainly not my last!

I really can't say enough of the space and the owner. Everything is thoughtfully curated. The space itself is open and airy but still cozy and inviting. I had my daughter's 12th birthday there. The owner was kind, patient and responsive. The ages ranged from 5-12. She made sure everyone went home with something they loved. The space allows food and drink too! The price was also reasonable. You really can't go wrong. We actually booked an adult night for the mom's! Can't wait to go back!!

We had such a lovely staff outing at Hammer & Stain! We made the pressed floral resin craft and it was so much fun! Our instructor, Dara, was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience even better! Highly recommend for a creative and enjoyable outing!

I had so much fun. I am not crafty at all, but I was helped out when my brain got stuck lol. We had a great time and will do it again.

Cool studio, great instructor helped us make a nice birthday gift.
