  The furniture making class was an excellent experience. It's well worth the cost and the time. What Priscilla is doing both as an entrepreneur and as a craftswoman is truly inspiring. I hope to turn what she taught me into a life-long hobby.

  I had such a great time during the 3 week Live Edge side table class! The class was perfect for a beginner (I've never used power tools before) but moved fast enough that I felt like I was constantly learning and making progress on my table. Priscilla was amazing to work with! I had some custom specifications that I wanted (including a larger table and shorter legs to turn it into a coffee table instead of a side table) that she worked with me to make work. I've never felt so empowered to take on a craft that was in the past so intimidating to me. I highly recommend this or any other class at the DIY Joint. I've even already signed up for the Open Studio Certification because I can't wait to create some more unique projects for my home and friends/family. Thanks to everyone at the DIY Joint for a fun class, can't wait to come back!

  Stop reading these reviews and go sign up for every class you can! I took a class with Priscilla and she couldn’t have been more detailed with her instructions and helpful throughout the project. The DIY Joint has a very special atmosphere and I look forward to taking advantage of every open session I can in the future.

  Absolutely love this place and the owner, Priscilla! My first experience was back in September when I booked the cutting board class. Priscilla was the instructor and she was very clear in her teachings and the rules of the shop. She was professional, super helpful, and extremely patient with those of us in the class as we learned to use these high-powered tools. Upon completion of the course, you receive your certification for open studio. Since then, I've spent at least 5 hours a week at the shop working on my own personal projects. In fact, thanks to the DIY Joint and Priscilla, I'm working on opening my own Etsy shop now! (Sawdust and Roses -- come check it out!) The people attending open studio are like a little community. They're so friendly, willing to answer any quick questions you may have (although everyone generally works on their own), and it's nice to see the progress others are making on their projects, as well. Additionally, due to Priscilla's encouragement, I completed the hand tools utensil course this weekend, as well. It was a one-day course (9am-2pm) and Glen was the instructor. I must say, he is next-level talented. He makes it look so easy! It was exciting to learn something new about this new hobby that I love so much. That said, I strongly recommend the DIY Joint to any beginner wanting to take a woodworking class to familiarize yourself with the tools, or even a novice just looking for a space to create. I would give this place 10 stars if I could!

  This place was so fun. Came here with my co workers and we made serving trays! The tutorial was spot on, and there was so much freedom to go at your own pace. You really create something spectacular from one single slab of wood. You can listen to music and bring your own snacks and drinks into the venue too. It was a unique and memorable experience. I would do it again for sure.
